Chip Kelly to UCLA: $4 Mil/Year

[UFGatorD]

I’ve been lurking this chat for the past several days. I used to be part of the old Gville Sun board and see a lot of familiar names...Ox, Slevin, etc and thought I would join back in.

Here’s my take:
I think it will most likely be Chip. Idt President ****s would make that trip just to pitch. He was probably there to answer questions about the contract. Second, so many leaks coming from people close to the search saying a contract was signed and then the players did that unified tweet. And just maybe they flew in and out of Ocala to distract Chip arriving in Gainesville? It seems weird to me that they used that airport. I’ll be watching for the Monday presser as well with fingers crossed.

If Chip chooses UCLA, Frost moves up to #1.

Where do we go from there?

 

[Slevin]

The Cessna that they flew up on only holds six. Six were on that plane. There was never any intention of Kelly returning with them on the plane. It doesn’t mean anything other than that, but the fact is that he couldn’t have came back.

Some of those Foley left overs should have sat in the isle

The president would absolutely fly out there to make a pitch. The deal isn’t done and the contract hasn’t been signed. Those are facts.

GCMB would meltdown the internet if CK went to UCLA and Frost picked Nebraska over us.

Can't speak for everyone else but I sure would....

 

[ChiefGator]

No it's probably more like Stricklin knows those idiots will run with exactly what he tells them instead of actually doing any work through sources

What "sources"??? Anybody who was on that plane who is a source other than say the AD or president should be fired for cause. There are no reliable sources, none!!!

 

[Detroitgator]

The logical consequence of spurning SOS when he wanted to come home.

I get all the replies, but the renting by USCe came after the renting by the Redskins which came after...

No we wouldn't. Completely unrelated: look at these excellent deals Lowe's has on pitchforks!

So are we to the point we'll wild-fire gossip when Air Force One lands and just sits there, no Kelly coming out?

IMO its safe to say that if this falls through with Chip and we don't get Frost then this search has been a disaster. Im not saying I think that happens, because I'm a VIP member on another site and the reporter seems to think the contract was signed last night.

That’s interesting and I never thought about it. Why would they fly into Ocala?

Thanks for that additional information, I did not notice. It seems like a plane that I would not fly for that purpose, but perhaps they are thrifty.

Right now the coach at Lake Weir high would be an improvement over butters.

The booster plane and the Ocala airport amounted to an attempt to keep the trip secret. It obviously didn't work.

We're reading too much into the peripherals. Comes down to money and fit. Period.

9 million a year? Pfffft!

Even if we miss on Kelly and he goes to UCLA that means UT isn't getting him. That is all I have heard about up here. Oh, and the fact that Gruden is coming.

I 'think" that he knows nothing but wants to make money with rumors, like you paying for VIP membership.

For me the internet must be free, no paying for anything.

I sure hope so because I'm sick of the roller coaster ride... Nothing left Just Dry Heaves
