    Again, Miss state is a terrible job. He’s played bama a helm of a lot closer than we have.

    Jesus man. Relax. You calling anyone pathetic right now is beyond laughable.

    The Coaching Search Thread

    Again, I don’t love the hire, but objectively getting Miss St ranked is an accomplishment. He’s shown that with high end recruits at Florida he can run an incredible offense.

    And so was James Franklin Vandy and Saban at Miss St. Some jobs aren’t possible to win big at. Miss St. is one of those jobs. I don’t love the hire, but let’s not pretend like this an all-time bad hire. If he can recruit well, I think he will do very well. That’s a big if though.

    Great post. I’m not thrilled with the hire, but we won two championships with him as the OC, including a few years of a high octane attack. Mullen has coached two current NFL starting QBs and a heisman winning legendary college QB. How many guys can say that?

    Norvell working on extension at Memphis

    Of course. Everything posted on any of board has a strong likelihood of being BS. Just throwing out what I’ve seen elsewhere. I have no clue if it’s true, but could explain him potentially signing an extension with Memphis.

    Norvell working on extension at Memphis

    Some chatter about him failing the UAA background check. Apparently, UTjr and Ole Miss have also backed away from him for something in his background.

    Chip Kelly to UCLA: $4 Mil/Year

    So we went from an announcement to 50/50. This isn’t trending the wrong way for us and I doubt we can turn it around. They better throw serious money at Frost. If we end up with Norvell, Taggart, or Mullen interest in the program will continue to decline.

    Chip Kelly to UCLA: $4 Mil/Year

    I don’t read that as “turning” on him. I think it illustrates that his secretive nature means that a lot of “sources” are speculating. It’s funny that he’s this notoriously secret guy and suddenly dozens of people have supposedly meaning things on his side.

    Zero chance this is true haha.

    This is what Ohio St. did and it worked out well for them. Though, they probably had a back-room deal with Urban.

    Texas A&M is the rumor.

    Chip Kelly to UCLA: $4 Mil/Year

    Yeah - I mean, what I don't get is why it seems like UCLA is as far along with Chip as we are, when we had a 3 week head start to work in the open. It seems like we should know by now if he's in or out and move on.

    Chip Kelly to UCLA: $4 Mil/Year

    That they verbally agreed to a deal, but Chip got cold feet and is considering other options. He’s done it before with NFL teams when he was at Oregon, so it wouldn’t be unprecedented. That said, Heitner looks like he just comments / recycles message board rumors. If his hesitation is true...

    Chip Kelly to UCLA: $4 Mil/Year

    Although, I prefer Chip, Frost would be an awesome hire and potentially better recruiter. After that, the candidate list gets pretty scary though. I’m not even sure who I prefer after those two.

    Chip Kelly to UCLA: $4 Mil/Year

    This is getting comical at this point.

    Chip Kelly to UCLA: $4 Mil/Year

    Logically, if he wants back in coaching (every indication is that he does), then UF is the logical choice. He's not going to a school like Arkansas or Texas A&M. UTjr is too southern and is objectively a worse job than UF, and UCLA doesn't have the commitment he's apparently looking for to hire...

    Chip Kelly to UCLA: $4 Mil/Year

    Looks like it’s just sitting there, as the flight time has already been pushed back four hours. Also, was scheduled to go to Orlando this morning and didn’t go. Probably someone trolling vol fans haha.

    Chip Kelly to UCLA: $4 Mil/Year

    Agreed. I’m not worried about UTjr at all. I just think it illustrates Kelly hasn’t signed anything. If he had then he wouldn’t meet with another school.

    Chip Kelly to UCLA: $4 Mil/Year

    I don’t think anyone chooses UTjr over UF, but I also don’t think it’s coincidence that there is a flight from Knoxville to Portsmouth. To me, this is the clearest sign yet that this isn’t 100% a Dunn deal
