Chip Kelly to UCLA: $4 Mil/Year

[78]

Isn't Kelly on ESPN2? We need to keep our eyes and ears peeled because at some point today someone's going to ask him re the Florida job. His response could provide some clue as to where this is at.

Maybe if the game goes south against UAB they announce Chip to deflect the shyt on the field.

My belief is that SS and the Admin thought this was a business as usual hire. When they got interest from CK they probably just started putting the money together. Same old same old. Then from what I have read Chip had a "Come to Jesus" conversation with SS and President Fuchs. Basically setting in the reality that UF has lost its prestige in football and furthermore your facilities are shyt. If you want to be a showcase program competing for championships, like we had at Oregan or how Alabama is built, then you got to stop talking and start doing. He laid it all out, a grand plan. It was so far off their radar screen that it blew their minds. So now here we are playing catch up. I still thinks its Kelly but only if we guarantee the pieces to complete Chips vision. Them pieces take time to put together.

Go Gators!!!

Agree. They won’t announce until Monday at the earliest

And after that announcement, will this board be happy, or a dumpster fire? In your opinion?

Lane Kiffin sits down with Tom Rinaldi to discuss Florida Atlantic's success this season, his approach to Twitter and his relationship with Nick Saban.

Am I the only one who is not exactly thrilled with the possibility of Chip Kelly being hired? I don’t know why, I just don’t have a good feeling about it.

 

[Daryl]

If Chip is hired, Gator fans will go ape****

He will probably just say he hasn't even spoken with UF officials.

One of just a very few I think.

F.V.C.K Kiffin and the horse he rode in on. I hope he fails miserably.

Les Miles will NOT come anywhere near UF. He was fired for his 3 yards n a cloud of dust offense.. I live in LA, all day long on the radio all i heard were fans who wanted him out for the past 4-5 years.

I'm sure what you're saying is accurate but I thought firing Miles was a mistake. That dude always had them in the top 10 and he is the luckiest dude I've ever seen coach.

Now with that being said I don't want an SEC W retread.

He will. They only talk to him because they’re hoping to god he says something Kiffin-y and quotable.

He will probably just say he hasn't even spoken with UF officials.

Which is when you come right back with has there been any contact whatsoever and if there was contact, would you be interested? Even resort to prefacing sentences with can you confirm or deny? Corner the guy.

So...my "sources" (voices in my head) are telling me that SS and Kelly are finalizing the deal this weekend so expect an "announcement" on Monday or Sunday to give Kelly a full week of recruiting going into the FSU game. If it is not "announced" by Monday then the higher ups just want Kelly to start a new after the FSU game. So an "announcement" won't come until the season is over.

I’m leaning towards this ain’t happening anytime soon, if at all.

My source's dad could beat up your source's dad.

I think I found the "source"

I don't think there is anyway they ask him...that's probably a well known topic to stay away from if he really is in the middle of negotiations
