Chip Kelly stays at Oregon
 

Believe it when I see it.

lol

Wow.

lol

What a stupid article. Welcome home Chip.

Kind of a surprise with everything that's on the horizon for the program. Glad we got our man early. Suck it, bitches!

who the **** still uses a pay phone?

I feel like you have to strike while the iron is hot. The iron may never be hotter for Kelly. He has a good thing at Oregon though. I don't really care either way.

Feels good dont it? I definitely wondered how long it'd take and didnt think wed be 1st. PHEW atleast it wasnt doug marrone

Same here. But I would bet the press made more of a deal about this than it really was. Supposedly he turned down the Philly job.:hmmm:

He should have gone now and at worst after next season. Who knows what is going to happen with possible NCAA sanctions looming?

I wonder if he is questioning if his style would work in the NFL or just the options he found present not what he was looking for? It may be apparent also the NFL wasn't ready for him either.

LOL

Insert Rick Astley

Never gonna give you up never gonna let you down

Perhaps the cba cramps his practice style which ****s up his entire game plan

Nike is paying him enough that he doesn't want to live in Cleveland. Can you blame him?

Kinda strange the way it all went down but I'm happy to have him back at Oregon

he only wanted to come to KC, obvi

^

The reporting on coaching rumor mills has just been atrocious this offseason.

Close to a deal with Browns, close with Eagles, then staying.
Reid 95% done to AZ, oops, KC.
The Buffalo job was Whisenhunt's. Oops.

No shit lol

Reid was rumored to San Diego at one point as well. Douche bags

What a joke Chip Kelly is. Jerking teams off just to get some free meals, attention, and get the price jacked up on his next contract. I'm upset he didn't go to the Browns because I wanted to see his system fail.

you kinda sound like my bitter ex girlfriend

Glad to see. One less good candidate for San Diego. Now, if some NFC team wouldn't mind snatching up Arians, it would be much appreciated.

I dont think Kelly is jerking off teams. Thats a big decision. He's playing the game with the agent. Gota respect he's going back to Oregon

Imagine how Browns fans must feel right now. According to most media outlets, they were mere moments away from hiring a coach that has the potential to take them out of the hellish state they've been in for decades, but then decides that he'd rather not coach in the NFL at all than take the position with their team. Rough. Makes me feel even better about the Reid hire, though, that's for sure.

Kinda like Cards fans think Reid was their coach Tuesday? :evil:

Funny how the Gruden news has dropped off.

I can't believe he even considered it to begin with.

I thought he would have wanted the Bears job. Big market, QB, good defense. He's like Cowher now

Not as bad as I made it sound in another thread. But let's not go putting on a hero's cape. There's nothing to "respect" here. He cheated, will put the program on probation, and yet decided to hardball the program he ruined into a pay raise by threatening to leave. He's going to Oregon for money, not because he had a conscience to stick with the program through thick and thin.

I meant respect for the fact he's going back to Oregon who's got NCAA issues

Because of money. He's not going there because he has a good conscience.

He's still going back. He could of got good money from CLE and PHI

He is being backed by Phil Knight of Nike.

This is the second year in a row he has essentially faked interest in the NFL to boost himself. Even worse because he did that this year in a year when he is going to really hurt the reputation of the program and screw them out of bowl games.

He cheated and is going to get paid handsomely for it. He is going back to Oregon for money, not out of loyalty or honor.

He'll get his man don't worry

/thread

Can someone elaborate on what he did by cheating?

I didnt know they still even exsisted. seriously...i never see them anymore.

"In staying with Oregon, Kelly will still have to deal with fallout from an NCAA investigation into the school's use of recruiting services.

The inquiry is the result of reports that surfaced in 2011 concerning payments Oregon made to two such services, including a $25,000 check sent to Willie Lyles and Houston-based Complete Scouting Services in 2010. Lyles had a relationship with a player who committed to Oregon.

Last month, Yahoo Sports reported that Oregon is headed toward a hearing with the NCAA committee on infractions because the two sides couldn't come to an agreement on appropriate sanctions. Yahoo cited two unidentified sources.

Earlier this year, Oregon requested a summary disposition in the case. The school presented a report to the infractions committee outlining violations the school believed occurred and appropriate sanctions. But that request was apparently turned down.

The NCAA does not comment on ongoing investigations."

Ya pay phones probably exist in Compton, California

Quite a few :hmmm:http://www.payphone-project.com/numbers/usa/CA/COMPTON/

ROFL ya definitley not standing at a pay phone there. Would be like an episode of Menace to Society

This.

He may wait another year. Philly or CLE? Id take philly but the fans are rough and the next guy has big shoes to fill regardless of what people think. Their last coach won 130 games and appeared in a Super Bowl

Isn't Oregon gonna be punished for recruiting violations or something?

If I were him I'd be pulling a Pete Carroll right about now.

Ya I saw something on that im not sure though. He's not pete carroll coach wise though IMO. No NFL experience. Pete was a HC for NYJ and NE and was successful. If I were Kelly I wouldve went to CLE, if you fail oh well just another fail in CLE, if you win youre a GOD

I think he knows that next year might be his best shot at a title and none of the open nfl jobs interested him.

i know he doesn't have NFL exp, I'm just saying in terms of leaving the NCAA before your stuck at a program that's about to go through hell, cause thats exactly what Carroll did..and his buddies that have USC ties up in Seattle lured him there.

I agree - I think he could have had descent success in Cleveland.

Twitter never lies, dammit.

Hopefully this wakes people up.

He had SEVERAL detailed conversations with the Browns, talked to the Eagles, and then decided to go back to Oregon.

:hmmm:

The NCAA is a hypocritical POS.

Can't get a title if they are sanctioned.

Yep, and they likely are. That's why I'm very surprised he didn't pull a Pete Carroll.

I hope he rots and misses his chance at Oregon. The dirty play of his team in the Fiesta bowl made me hate him.

Uncle Phil backed up the Brinks truck...

why?

Somebody wanted Pete Carroll - he was a former NFL head coach.

It's pretty obvious what happened with Chip Kelly.

Color me wholly unsurprised.

Man oh man. With Kelly staying at Oregon (and frankly, I don't see any reason for Brian Kelly to leave ND - you're a GOD there after this season), and Cowher/Gruden staying behind the mike, it's a true pleasure watching San Diego, Arizona, and the rest battle for the coaching scraps.

Meanwhile, we're going to get first shot at all the best coordinators, too.

Chip Kelly is a smart man... he knows he would be a dumpster fire of fail in the NFL.

So I was wrong. Wasn't the first time and will not be the last. I admit it.

I still like the over all idea. But obviously he is not the guy to bring about what I want.

Good deal! I'd hate for my 1st choice to actually go in the NFL and succeed. Plus I really enjoy watching Oregon play.

Yet another reason I'm glad we already got our guy.
