    So Chip Kelly signed his name on a deal and you're blaming the UAA for screwing this up due to some mythical "control" they were unwilling to give up?

    What???? You said you didn't like the possibility of people getting banned and I said that it's their site, their rules. Your response to me makes ZERO sense.

    I know a lot of people don’t think he’s a good choice but Charlie is doing a great job at USF.

    Frankly, CK signing an agreement that (IF) allows him to back out of that agreement (10 days?) means practically nothing.

    Not at all, people were just upset Spurrier was seemingly disrespected

    Without seeing specifically what all this refers to, I suspect the point is that there is a difference between voicing disagreement with a decision or voicing an opinion about policy, or effectiveness, compared to abusive name calling because you are angry/disappointed about something. . The line gets blurred these days, but some of us remember the difference. We're adults not children.

    You're going to have a hard time convincing me that the most beloved figure in Florida football history wasn't the #1 choice on just about everyone's list. This is hindsight.

    Bobby Stoops all over again. Never trust insiders unless the media picks it up soon after.

    I don't understand how Kelly signed a contract and yet he isn't our coach. What does a contract even mean at that point

    Well I was here (old account). You admittedly weren't. It wasn't 100% Meyer but it was far more Meyer than Spurrier.

    If the contract gives him a period to rescind his acceptance, that can happen.

    Good Lord Doering is on Finebaum right now talking about how we need to consider bringing back Spurrier ala Snyder at Kansas State.

    Is this what we are right now? Damn.
