Too funny!

is Dougie Rick Rolling again?

My friend that works in UAA informed me that Frost had no interest in the position at this time, the same was backed up by a Bull Gator I know.......contract details are still being ironed out with Kelly and most of the contention is around all the speaking engagements and booster commitments

We keep hearing about a press conference at 11 AM tomorrow, but not a damn thing from the school.

We want a press conference, we want it now!!!

What does he expect? He would be the face of Florida football for Tebow's sake.

I got a tweet for that

Mehhhhh... Nusschump is a QB killer. And it is hard a QB when the moron in the both takes 20-25 seconds to signal in the plays.

The other thing you need to realize is that one of Chip Kelly's innovations is that he sends in series of plays which the players have practiced hours and hours of times so they can run them in 10 seconds or less. He makes them practice fast and has no down time. There are audibles prepared (which is often a series too) for when the defense adjusts one way or another or they identify a weakness (player) to exploit.

Frost seems to do the same thing.

Chip is really introverted, not married, no kids. Football is his life and he’s pretty anti social. Im ok wity that as long as the results are on the field. Let the man coach, and let SS and SOS handle the off the field stuff

oh the irony, the guy who dug his heels in to get him an extension is gone first. I find it quite satisfying (but Nuss shoulda went thru the door at the same time as Mac)

Have no idea what you are talking about.... must be another person.

 

[ChiefGator]

All this could be true, I would think he could take less money and have more for his staff which I would hope would be much better than currently and also somewhat larger. As for those other things perhaps some staff does a lot of that, and being on TV you can't be that much of an introvert. He is going to have to do some interviews and perhaps his show for a minimum. Time (hopefully by tomorrow) will tell.

So he is not going quit and say he is going to spend more time with his family, because ball is life.

Well let the man just coach football. Heck, I dont care about meeting him. I just want to watch a fun football team again. I know I am spoiled, but I learned the game of football watching SOS and Danny terrorize the SEC

This has been like a rollercoaster ride and I'm getting nauseous. Hope it's announced soon... If at all.

If and when SS signs CK, he will be rewarded with an O for his initials

I would be happy with limited Kelly appearances and what not if that got us back to playing championship caliber football. Seriously, whiffing on Kelly simply because some Gator clubs demand he speak to them would make me believe we deserve to be Tennessee.

If Kelly is willing to allow millions to walk away for what might be only a couple of weeks out of his year, what does that say about him and his view of leading the Gators?
