As I said I am not a Kelly guy, but not just b/c I am not enamored with him as a coach, but I am not a fan of his personality. I truly want a HEAD FOOTBALL COACH. Not a guy who has one particular specialty.

Which is why they invented defensive coordinators.

BTW, when's the last time we had a head coach who wasn't in some shape or form a specialist?

Thomas Goldkamp on TOS says if today's meeting went (or goes) as planned, with Kelly and UF signing on the dotted line, he thinks this will leak to mainstream sites tonight.

I don;t doubt that Kelly would not be able to put up points against some of the SEC teams, but I base my theory on history. when given a month or so to prepare, Auburn limited Oregon for the most part in the NC game. given an entire offseason to prepare, LSU stoned Oregon for the most part to open the season. I do believe Kelly was the HC in both those games. Now 2 games in not enough for me to extrapolate but it is about the only league where a decent portion of the coaches still care about some defense. As I said I am not a Kelly guy, but not just b/c I am not enamored with him as a coach, but I am not a fan of his personality. I truly want a HEAD FOOTBALL COACH.

He put up some good offensive numbers in the NFL and last i checked those are tougher defenses than SEC defenses

Why is there an assumption that an announcement about Kelly this week would somehow deflate or disrespect the team? Everyone already knows Shannon isn't going to be the HC next season, certainly including Shannon. If anything, I think the news would pump the team up. It would sure as hell pump the fans in the stadium up.

True, although he came highly advertised as a quarterback whisperer.

(I'm not even sure SOS got that billing.)

By idiots... who the hell was buying or selling that guy as an offensive genius other than Foley?

If this turns out to be the case, Stricklin will be celebrated for getting ahead of the game by pulling the trigger on Mac when he knew a coaching s***storm was about to break out coast to coast.
