Jacksonville radio host Frank Frangie is guessing that Chip is going to UCLA. Frangie, voice of the Jaguars, has strong connections at UF. Here's a very interesting clip from an article that Frangie put out this afternoon .. http://gridironnow.com/comfort-level-chip-kelly-ucla/
Did we ever figure out who was in Teterboro, NJ? I can’t remember. https://flightaware.com/live/flight/DCM6344
Yup. We'll get it right before too long. We have a great combination of assets to make it catch fire when we do.
http://www.onlygators.com/11/12/201...ker-candidates-tracker-updates-news-analysis/ 8:33 p.m.: In speaking with industry experts, including two high-powered agents notintimately involved in this particular search, OnlyGators.com has been told that it was believed that Chip Kelly was on his way to Florida as recent as early Wednesday. And while some are starting to think otherwise after UCLA’s pitch and insertion into the process, most still hold that belief. Kelly’s greatest hesitation at this time is believed to be the pressure that comes along with coaching and recruiting in the SEC compared to that of the Pac-12, a conference he has already dominated and that is of great familiarity to him. More than anything else, it is believed that Kelly is “just playing the game” at this time, which lends to the below report that he is looking to extract more from the Gators, whether that is decision-making power, money, etc.
Long time lurker...I haven’t heard anything about CK to Auburn lately, but wasn’t that the rumor going back to early season? Malzahn out and CK in? If that had any legs could it be possible that CK is delaying this to find out if Auburn actually cans Malzahn? I know I’m cheering for Auburn in the Iron Bowl to make it impossible for that job to open up and throw yet another wrinkle in this. I’ve been on the Chip bandwagon since we got crushed by Michigan. I’m beyond shocked we are even this close(thank you SS!). Add me to the list of long time lurkers that felt the need to chime in for this epic thread. Go Gators!
He'll fail at UCLA too. I'm pretty confident of that. Or at least he won't win any nat champs. Not sure what their definition of failing is.
Those wondering about the flight references may or may not be aware that a UAA plane returned from Mississippi last night just after midnight. this was hidden from the flight data site until a few hours ago. Also both UAA planes moved out this afternoon somewhere. notice no planes here. The fuel truck was there just before the planes moved.
You cant hate chip unless you know why he chose UCLA. If it's because Florida played this conservatively than why hate CHip? If Florida wouldn't give Chip the control he wanted, how is that Chips fault that Florida screwed this up?
This contradicts everything in that article. Who the crap knows https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/free-agent-coach-chip-kelly-should-decide-on-florida-or-ucla-by-sunday/ via http://cbssportsapp.com
Which is more important hiring Kelly and letting him hire whatever coaches he wants and possibly lose recruits like Corral and Pierce and others that have good relationships with some of our coaches or play hardball and demand Kelly keep some of our coaches to try and keep this recruiting class together and possibly lose Kelly and have to settle on a plan C.
