His annoying personality and obsession with being fast is best to stay at oregon.
He is the most "oregon" coach of any coach.
January 7th, 2013 at 12:59 AM ^
I'm not so sure about his personality, but this is actually really well said. Kelly double-downing on Oregon is amazing for that program, and for college football. It's great to have innovative minds like his remain in the college ranks.

With the personality, it's more of the everything has to be fast factor.
You run to the line of scrimmage, it's gotta be fast.
You get onto the practice field, it's gotta be fast.
You gotta take a shit? It better be fast.
I don't think I've heard an interview with him and he's doesn't mention fast. Which I guess is just the oregon way.
January 7th, 2013 at 10:35 AM ^
So what? It works.
January 7th, 2013 at 11:07 AM ^
Where did I say it didn't?
January 6th, 2013 at 10:58 PM ^
With the NCAA bearing in on Oregon, this is a bit of a surprise...but at least a coach will have to live with the sanctions under his own watch.
January 6th, 2013 at 11:15 PM ^
OREGON DID NOTHING WRONG THE NCAA DOESNT LIKE THEM TAKING THE SPOTLIGHT AWAY FROM USC. THE CHARGES ARE PHONY AND EVERYONE INCLUDING CHIP KELLY KNOWS IT. THE TRUTH ALWAYS WINS

You don't really think that the NCAA is going to do anything serious to Oregon, do you? I think Kelly turned down the job precisely because he knows nothing is going to happen. Phil Knight has way too much money and influence.

An Oregon super-booster was able to keep him there. Seems like he was just using NFL teams again to get another big raise. There better not be an NFL team dumb enough to come knocking next year.

You find Cleveland funny? You look funny..

I was awfully curious to see how that offense would have worked in the NFL.
Especially now since he was considering the Eagles. We possibly could have seen Kelly's offense + Michael Vick = pointz, assuming it worked out
January 7th, 2013 at 9:10 AM ^
As has been discussed in other threads, Kelly's offense is a pass-based spread. The Qb running is not the focus of the offense. That makes me think that it may translate to the NFL.
Vick however has never been a good passer, by his own admission cannot read defenses very well, and has been a turnover machine in Philly. He's also getting old by nfl standards.
Jim Mora Sr said Vick was a coach killer after his kid got canned from the falcons. Time has proved him correct with all of his coaches getting canned wityh the exception of Petrino who left before he go whacked.
I don't watch pro ball, but am forced because of geography to listen/watch the Eagles and Steelers. Kelly coming to Philly had me mildly interested. But Vick is nothing more than fool's gold.

January 6th, 2013 at 11:08 PM ^
I would say because it's not a perfect fit.
January 6th, 2013 at 11:17 PM ^
January 7th, 2013 at 2:59 PM ^
Cleveland management is incompetent and cowardly.
January 6th, 2013 at 11:01 PM ^
I really wanted somebody to attempt the spread 'n shred in the NFL, just to see if it could work.
January 6th, 2013 at 11:01 PM ^
CHIP KELLY IS A GENIUS OFFENSIVE MIND THAT WILL RUN THE PAC 12 AS LONG AS HE STAYS THERE. MICHIGAN SHOULD MAKE HIM AN OFFER BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE AND HOKE RUINS THE PROGRAM BACK TO THE STONE AGE

Looks like Phil Knight backed up the brink trucks.
January 6th, 2013 at 11:10 PM ^
January 6th, 2013 at 11:10 PM ^
They'll still probably lose half of their cheerleaders to the NFL.
January 6th, 2013 at 11:13 PM ^
Good news for college football.
January 6th, 2013 at 11:21 PM ^
Better news for fake scouting agencies.
January 6th, 2013 at 11:14 PM ^
The man is a king at Oregon, smart move on his part again to parlay his NFL offers into a salary bump
January 6th, 2013 at 11:15 PM ^
I'm definitely surprised by this. I thought Cleveland was a perfect fit for Kelly with Richardson, big recevers in Gordon and Little, and McCoy actually being a good fit for his offense. I wonder if Kelly just wants to hold off till winning a MNC. He's still got time to make the jump to the NFL, but he should make it sooner rather than later.

1. I think he's gonna get blasted tomorrow night
2. Domers will now really feel entitled to a NCS appearance on a regular basis.
3. Which will never happen. This was a miracle season about four different ways.
4. He's been rumored to have NFL aspirations.
Discuss.
January 7th, 2013 at 5:11 PM ^
Your argument is not sound
January 6th, 2013 at 11:33 PM ^
January 7th, 2013 at 12:13 AM ^
Then he interviewed at Cleveland and decided maybe sanctions weren't so bad after all.

It is quite a tribute to inspire a follower like that. That must be who negged you for no apparent reason when you were posting from the Outback Bowl.

I live in Oregon, and you would think the Duck fans just won the national title with him staying.
January 7th, 2013 at 12:27 AM ^
January 6th, 2013 at 11:57 PM ^
I was looking forward to seeing all those weird signs he makes for play calls in the NFL...then again he could just use the NFL QB communication system but that would not be any fun
January 7th, 2013 at 12:14 AM ^
Trolling standards sure are slipping these days. Don't they teach anything in the schools any more?
