Sources: UF & Chip Kelly working on contract details

[Durfish]

"According to sources..."

IF Kelly ends up hired this week there's the possibility, however unlikely, that he could coach the game against FSU. That would give him a chance to work with the current staff and decide if there is anyone he wants to hang around. Then he could go after the other coaches and staff he feels he needs once the regular season has ended. It would also give him the chance to work with some of the players and assess the needs before making a mad dash to secure his recruiting class.

You heard it first here. Soon to be out on Franz Beard's Twitter feed.

Also, it would give him a chance to immediately take over BBQ sauce sales at the stadium.

We’re on the verge of hiring one of the greatest offensive minds ever! Meanwhile the Vols will have to settle for Tyrone Willingham.

As long as there are coolers on the sidelines, he’ll be ambulatory.

Maybe Kelly will bring in Charlie Weis for OC and Rob Ryan as DC. That'd be a lot of beef on the sideline.

On second thought, that would be too frightening for in-home visits on the recruiting trail. Momma would panic.

Tuesday, Nov. 14 — Day 16
6:12 p.m.: Mark Long of the Associated Press shared that “Florida has NOT talked money or contract terms with anyone being considered for the job” as of Tuesday evening. Chomp: That coincides with everything we are hearing. Many appear to be taking tidbits about Chip Kelly and expanding them well beyond their true meaning or consequence at this time. The greatest takeaway from the coaching search to this point is that Kelly appears to be a legitimate candidate for the Gators — nothing more. If UF is pleased with its vetting and wants to make a move on him, it will do so. But reports that it has gotten that far into the process are premature. Kelly is extremely private, and Stricklin is trying to keep this entire search under wraps. Everyone needs to calm down.

What do you take from it? You take from it that it makes far too much sense that there's interest from either party and that the vetting rumor is likely accurate. Anything beyond that is pure randomized speculation.

Which means we're gonna be to 3k posts, 230k views and 1.5k acts of silliness before anything of substance is reported.
