Kelly rejected all college overtures, LSU reached out and got nothing.

shite Helfrich asked him to come back to Oregon.

Kelly will jump off a bridge before he admits his system doesn't work in the NFL. Taking a college job is admitting it doesn't work

insane that a guy who is so good at college coaching hates it so much. i think he stays in the nfl as an assistant.

Then his coaching future is in the CFL because his NFL days are over.

Wonder what Jax thinks about him? Bortles, Yeldon, Lee, Robinson. Don't forget Shoelace, there are some pieces there

has there been an NFL coach to have 3 different jobs in 3 seasons? The jags are a joke so I guess this could happen.

For whatever reason , we had no interest in waiting even until mid December. We acted like he had to have a coach named by the end of November.

Time to support O and move on

That's due to the recruiting aspect. In college football, a head coach has to be a hands-on recruiter. A HC can delegate on-field coaching like Dabo does or Bowden and Paterno did during their later years but you really cannot delegate recruiting. Head coaches have to be actively involved, be comfortable in recruits' living rooms, shake some hands, create ties with high school football coaches, etc... That's just something Chip did not like to do.
