[JohnRossEwing]

Done

 

[GeorgeFlippin]

You’re supposed to put “BREAKING NEWS” in the subject line! :Cool:

I'll be damned. Kelly coming back. Boy I was sure wrong, if so...

#fakenews???

 

[JohnRossEwing]

Boss-*** hire.


Prediction: No Gator fan had to google Chip Kelly.

Prediction: No Gator fan is wondering if he is nice.

I like the implications of this! EekSmokinWinking

Florida gets Mr. Miyagi... Do we get The Karate Kid?

 

[SWIowahawks_rivals44758]

$4.5 million seems a little low for a proven college winner? If so, Florida won't be bad for long.

Wax on, wax off baby!

A lot of us were.

I thought so too. I honestly expected him to command $6-7M.

If true makes perfect sense and is a better fit for him than it would be for frost

It could be fake news. I'm not seeing it anywhere else. Maybe "NCAA Football News" isn't as legit as it sounds, LOL.

id rather have kelly than frost

 

[Gucci_mAYne420]

Ehhh. While Kelly likely ends up at Florida, this "breaking news" is being reported by some random fan page from Twitter. It claims there's a press conference at 11:00 tomorrow morning, but as of now, the university hasn't released anything about that.

 

[SnohomishRed]

There is only one school he fits with and that is florida, they know it and he knows it

 

[MOhusker12]

His latest stint in the NFL probably hurt him financially, he needs to show that he still has it, even though coaching in the NFL is not even remotely close to coaching in college imo.

Just waiting for someone here to predict Frost to Gators as OC.

He's still getting $7.5/yr mill from Philly & SF, so as long as the number UF is paying him is reasonable for mitigation purposes, UF gets off cheap.

 

[huskergal99]

We don't have that option.

Probably go there as coach in waiting?

Not seeing this on any other legit site. Might be bogus

Good point

If I did sparky would ban me.

It might be a tad premature, but there is a lot of smoke coming from the UF message boards as well.

If you are a UF fan right now...you are rock hard.

Kelly to KFC...he prefers the dark meat

I thought the same, strangely, as the contracts for college football coaches are getting crazy. Anyway, I suspect his NCAA baggage may have affected his bargaining leverage.

@4.6.3 ...isn't this supposed to be, lotion on, lotion off? :Cool:

Ha. Yes!!! Perfect.
"Yes Danielson... lotion on, lotion off"

 

[HuskAir]

Looks pretty official.

 

[coachDubs]

There is only one school he fits with and that is florida, they know it and he knows it

UCLA is just as good of a fit if not better.

We don't have that option.

Pure speculation.

Regardless, big time hire for Florida.

 

[inWV]

So this is fake news?

I don't have premium access, but "Chip-Kelly-To-Gators-with-Thursday-press-conference" kind of indicates that this is another source

 

[Harry Caray]

Will make it harder for Frost to recruit Florida players here....why come all the way to Nebraska when you can run the same offense in Gainesville?

There's plenty of high level recruits in Florida that fit the offense.
