Chip Kelly to UCLA: $4 Mil/Year

[DeltaGlamma]

everything I have read about CK suggests he is a total control freak, he is not social and sees his players as commodities, not people (no PB&Js)

He has few friends and the ones he confides in have been sworn to secrecy and will not comment publicly about him, including the fact he was married in the 90s and never acknowledged that

He is a different guy, but so is Bellichek and articles I read compare him favorably to Belli

I have no doubt he wants to make another splash in college to earn his way back to the NFL

What "full control" would a college coach have? It's not like an NFL franchise.

This is bs....

He may want to have his own operation decided his way.... what coach wouldn't?

He may want to influence other aspects of the program but really who cares...
He's not asking to turn Albert into a duck!

I know i just don't care

Yo..... it's ok to use periods, commas, question marks, and other punctuation.

The Nick Saban Model is the closest to full control you'll find in college.

And what extra stuff does he do that any other college head coach doesn't? It's not like he's signing free agents and making trades.

I could give a damn how anti social he is, or how odd he is or whatever, hell you hire a coach to win ballgames, not to kiss boosters asses!

 

[Doopree]

Its mainly to make everyone worry. Are you worried yet?

OF COURSE IM ****ING WORRIED!!!!

 

[t-gator]

Lazy "journalists"

We freakin hope

No solid proof and is all opinion based. I'm okay with our chances :-)

Maybe he's drifting into the marketing and promotion aspects of uf.... that may make some people edgy

Soon we will be hearing talks have cooled off and that is sooooo disappointing for gator fans

I had high hopes that Stricklin was an improvement over that other guy

 

[UFHealthGator]

The guy cites the same debunked tweet about Vegas betting on Mullen. Lazy blogger. Grain of salt has been taken with it.

So, anybody can post a twitter post and its gospel? As far as we know, our AD is simply putting it all together. Chill out people.

Well guess we'll be shopping at the dollar store for a coach again, wonder who Foley will recommend.

We can get WM back at no charge, we’re already paying him. I got the same feeling I had before they announced Butters. We are going to end up sucking hind tit again. It’s time everyone realizes the football program makes all other programs possible. Cut the budgets on all other programs and look out for the goose who lays the golden eggs. If we miss this time, we’ll be the biggest joke in town. Stricklin needs to realize where his salary comes from.

No knowledge but CK was trending up for days, not trending down

Keep in mind...I seriously doubt Stricklin gets the final say when it comes to the money parts of the contract.
