Perhaps the biggest move of the coaching hiring cycle is the one that wasn’t made.

Per multiple reports, Oregon coach Chip Kelly is staying in Oregon.

The move comes a day after Kelly spent multiple hours meeting with the Eagles, and two days after he reportedly was close to becoming the next coach of the Browns.

It’s the second straight year that Kelly nearly has left Oregon for the NFL, and the question becomes whether the NFL opportunity will keep knocking. At some point, NFL teams won’t waste their time trying to hire him.

At some point, Kelly’s Favre-ish indecision could impact recruiting in a negative way. For now, Kelly’s choice to stay in Oregon will surely help seal the deal for the coming class who will be able to sign their letters of intent early next month.

For now, some league insiders believe that Kelly and his agent, David Dunn, overplayed their hand and were forced to save face. Others believe Kelly simply wasn’t ready to leave the college game. If he isn’t ready now, he may never be.

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.

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

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