    So can someone just TELL me why it's "getting hotter", I don't have it in me to read this whole thread and at a glance I can't find the update.

    Would some kind gentleman or lady please tell me in a nutshell what the latest is with Chip?

    I am feeling pretty sure Frost is our guy but I would be thrilled with CK so what is it please?

    Not buying it. There must be something. Tilly is not a post whore and he didn't just post "getting hotter" as click bait. What was the thing, however small or big?

    Hey guys. I'm new here but been around on other boards for a long time. I guess I needed a change of scenery.

    I personally would love to see us get Kelly. He would instantly rejuvenate a currently dying program. I'll trust Stricklin and our admin to keep him straight and teach him the Florida way.

    @BenTrillGriffin said it was a done deal in the other thread and it would probably be announced this week iirc.

    Just a heads up but the NY Giants might be firing their coach in the next 24-48 hours. Just adding more drama....:D

    Franz Beard I think is how you spell it, he was a writer for Gator Country awhile back was on the radio the other day and basically said its a done deal for Chip Kelly. That he has connections with Boosters and the boosters have told him that the deal is done. Just waiting on the Lawyers to get the I's dotted and the T's crossed.

    Corral can point straight...

    That's enough for me to give him the edge over Fields.

    If the talks are real and I don’t doubt they are, I don’t see a scenario where Kelly doesn’t sign. He’s a free agent and we have dibs. And will and can outspend UT. How does he not sign?

    Think he's recycling old Stoops story lines and just swapping the names out. Almost 48 hours in and no info outside of Gator boards. That's an eternity in our instant info world. This is getting a very click-baity feel.

    Pretty sure Franz was Mr. Done Deal himself, IIRC.

    Because Kelly has already tried the NFL... I think the key with Kelly would be to whip out the pocket books if he performs that well... which I expect he will... if we pay him enough, I think we can keep him from going back to the NFL
