    What do bet that if Kelly is announced as head coach in the next day or so the Gators will play with a little more swag this weekend......no more walking dead from the last couple of weeks.

    You don't think a fan could make up this line: "Chip Kelly is on his way to Gainesville."

    Kind of looked like a fanboy want a be account. I don't think it is very credible. I'm waiting on more credible sources.

    I don't think that will be the case at all. Coaches don't directly determine uniform or apparel deals.

    Phil Knight has given Oregon a sh!t ton of money toward stadium, facilities, etc,. Nike also has a huge apparel contract with Oregon. I believe part of that deal is that Oregon has given Nike full control over their uniforms. Logistics have a lot to do with it. Nike has used Oregon as something of a guinea pig to show off all their new apparel technologies and design. Kind of like an ongoing fashion show. Under Armor has done the same with Maryland.

    But I don't think Kelly coming here is going to do anything directly in regards to our uniforms. That's not to say that there isn't or won't be a uniform redesign in the future or that Kelly may not even push for some changes, but Florida is most likely never going to be anything like Oregon.

    FYI the AD's family owns a brewery in Austria. If he closes this deal I'll be hoisting a few in his honor!

    What a beta country song. Always makes me think of some wimpy dude in a half ton pick up (I mean who buys a half ton truck? They are worthless. If you're not driving 3/4 ton or bigger you're just pretending), with a name with alternate spelling like, Rian Kola, dating and crying over some girl with alternate spelling as well. "Jennipher Peaches Smith stop doing that lady's hair for a minute I need to speak to you right here in the parlor. I love you, I want to marry you, I want our first born to be named Roland Coal Kola, we'll call him RC. I'll get him a diesel truck from the year he's born and forever be rollin coal as a symbol of my unending love for you. I love you baby. Marry me, JP."

    No way SOS would let us get trolled this long...he would have got the word out. His only statement was a certain misdirection with negotiations going on at the time. He likes Frost like a lot f us. I'm guessing CCK would like to announce an OC and DC at the podium as well for Recruiting purposes. The timing means he could kill it in this class with the head start he will have with current commits and targets.

    The "insiders" catching wind of the deal being in place, expect the articles to pop up left and right.
