They are the most exciting team in sports, hands down. I hope you are wrong.

Twitter-verse says Kelly just officially turned down the Eagles and has decided to return to Oregon. Oh thank God.

Im just not that impressed with Chip as an NFL coach right now and he keeps spurning teams I wonder if he's gona be frowned upon

Holy cow. What a scumbag.

Hope Oregon gets hard with sanctions. I thought he was better than this.

He's a scumbag because he's comfortable at Oregon?

You have some of the worst takes on this board.

LOLWUT?

He will get a big bump in pay... Like Obrien did at Penn St.

Is there any doubt clark got the best guy?

Hard to argue that anyone that was available is better.

Think it's a pretty shitty move to cheat and bring sanctions to your program, then fake interest in the NFL to negotiate a pay raise. Tressel was run out of town for doing pretty much the same thing. Kelly gets a pay raise.

Sorry, I think it's a dick move.

Weren't you talking shit about Clark the other day?

Atleast he's staying and will deal with them. He isnt the only coach with sanctions. Honestly most of these are stupid unless kids are cheating. If they receive money screw it

I was reserving my Clark impression until after he hired a HC and if there was a new GM

Thank God, indeed. Welcome home.

I guess. As opposed to Pete Carroll, who got out and hung his program out to dry. Kelly's at least sticking with them.

That's a fair point, but let's not act like this was some act of loyalty. Seems to be driven by money. By the way, think what Carroll did was shitty too.

Just pointing out that Kelly brought potentially years of sanctions on the program and lost Oregon a shitload of bowl game revenue, not to mention stripping fans of that. Think it takes a bit of nerve to not only negotiate a pay raise, but to play hard ball. Not to mention wasting 7 hours of the Browns' time for an interview that was conducted purely for leverage.

Enjoy your 3 years of probation! :)

When it was reported reid to az and the chiefs were interviewing keith armstrong yes.

What a difference 4 days can make huh?

Phil Knight backed up the Brinks truck, I'd bet.

The national media has made themselves out to be incredibly idiotic over the last couple weeks. First Reid was ready to sign with AZ, now he's in KC. Next, Kelly is signing with the Browns and now he's in Oregon.

****ing morons.

Overreaction. Per usual.

Yes I was being patient. Got a little impatient once they said the deal was close for 3 days LMAO

:facepalm: damn athan on 610 said norv turner is a possibility. We havent heard his name at all. God he just makes shit up.

heh, lots of scuttlebutt now that Phil Knight made it very $$rewarding$$ for Kelly to stay at Oregon. If thats the case, glad he stayed.

After Chip Kelly done run off to the big city for the weekend—and then, very unexpectedly, returned home last night to Phil Knight's farm—speculation has run rampant in the sports biosphere about why the Oregon Ducks coach would spurn the National Football League's glamour and cash.

We're as puzzled as anybody. But it's worth remembering that Kelly is hardly coming back to a cardboard box and some soda crackers.

John Locanthi's WW cover story last month on Kelly examined the perks that come with the coach's $3.5 million annual salary: two cars, an Autzen Stadium skybox suite for his guests, and a bonus of at least $200,000 for that elusive unbeaten season.

Read the story for the full list of swag.

WW also reported that Kelly has a frosty relationship with many University of Oregon boosters. What's fascinating about this weekend's reversal is that reports say one booster helped change Kelly's mind.

Yep, it's Knight. NFL reporters say the Nike founder and #1 Duck fan made a "push" to keep Kelly here.

If those reports are true, they amount to a spectacular coup for Knight: He has, in a single month, managed to make the nation's most coveted football coach and the Oregon Legislature dance to his tune.

What a scumbag. You are about to embarrass your program with sanctions. Then you hardball your boosters to give you more money in that same year. It's almost thumbing your nose at the ncaa to take money from boosters at a time like this.

Can we at least stop treating him like a hero because he was so noble to return

Who's treating him like a hero?
