Not opposed to Kelly. Just wary of this Scientology-like rabid adulation for such a "radical rearranger".
Not pushing an avalanche for Scott Frost.

Though losing four of your last six games by an average margin of 24 points and missing the playoffs for the second year in a row - after being widely touted as a Super Bowl contender - is the kind of thing that will get a coach fired,

having gone 7-12 in his final 19 NFL games while bleeding the Eagles' roster of playmaking talent, he'd probably find total control hard to obtain elsewhere.

Things to temper the avalanche of banished doubt.

So.... at what point did you consider that Dooley was just an SID mouthpiece?

When he was writing stories about Jim McElstain only losing "the ones he was supposed to"? Which I guess is still true in that we were underdwags to LSU, ATM, Ugly, and Mushcawks. SEE! He is doing a great job and 4-8 is only losing the ones we are supposed to!!!!!!

Maybe Chip is trying to either pump his money up, assistant money up, or a finite picture of facilities going forward?
Despite that narrative, I still think we have him and we are awaiting the season end to announce it

Kelly's career in the NFL has nothing to do with college football. His college football system is proven.

To be fair, Forde is just regurgitating Dooley. He isn't really on the ground here and I guess he hasn't been sufficiently embarrassed over the last eight years to stop using him.

If I felt like it, I could do the same thing with the McElstain hiring, and firing for both Forde and Dooley/Andrieu. But I won't. You can if you want to.

Lol what's the difference!
He's a joke dude seriously. When he says things like Mullen "could be" another target you should just stop reading right there.
He knows jackshyt he's just throwing out some dumb ideas for clicks on a slow day.

There is so much wrong with this post I don't even know where to begin. It's clear you don't want Kelly, so you don't want it to be true.
Okay. Big gulps huh?

Seriously though... I want a coach that’s going to make us damn good again. I’ve said that I believe Kelly and Frost can do that for us. I’ve been tracking this thread the past few days and there’s been so much speculation about why he hasn’t been named or why he isn’t here yet and honestly I’m tired of it. It feels played out and I want it to stop. I want to rally around good positive vibes. It’s been a roller coaster of bull crap with this whole thing.

This is true yet he's not going to surprise opponents like he did at O.

The up tempo is widely used in part. We will need to recruit to the system especially on the O line and on the D

I do. They just can’t interview them until the season is over...or won’t.
The deal is always done before the "interview" occurs.

You don't go hang out in a guys cabin in Colorado then move on to another hire, forcing that one to look like your third or fourth pick.

Even Tinerc doesn't do that.

Ox, it's clear to me you know something you're not telling us because this is the most optimistic I have ever seen you. Dare I say future pumper?

When is that true or any system

We will need to recruit? When is that not true?
