I heard that most of the boosters and the AD strongly dislike Kelly at Oregon. So I imagine they are glad he's gone. They'll enjoy loosing more I guess.

Adam Jude ?@A_Jude Just 10 days ago, Chip Kelly assured Oregon AD Rob Mullens he would remain for 2013 season. Now ... Mark Helfrich will be new head coach.

Yeah wasn't that the story a week or two ago? Must have been some truth to it. Oregon pretty much has to throw the bank at petersen now.

Andy Reid is probably happy, he can probably get Nick Foles for a bargain now.

Well when they fire him in 3 yrs and LSU fires Miles he can be the HC. I just don't think he will be a good NFL coach.

I can still remember when he was hired at UO from UNH and now the guy is an NFL HC. Incredible.

Who is Adam Jude? And why does it matter if he "assured" the AD anything? Circumstances change. But I forgot, you're at a dead end job and have never had another offer.

I would expect it to be a pro style spread with a bit of read option mixed in played at a high tempo. So picture a team running something similar to the Skins or Panthers offense at the same pace as the Patriots.
Exactly. Chip is no fluke. He'll build an offense around what works.

Here's some educated guesses to some questions in this thread: -Vick is gone. Other than the fact he can run doesn't fit Kelly (not a good decision maker, turnover prone). -Kelly won't run the same offense as he does at Oregon. It'll be more in line with what Wash/Car./SF do. But in the NFL you gotta protect the QB because that's the franchise generally. -Kelly's main goal is to spread the field and make you defend it all. Interested to see what he does at QB. Foles could be serviceable, don't see long term fit. A guy like A. Smith makes sense but he's not dynamic. Nothing much in this class. Tajh Boyd would have made it interesting.

News breaks quick on the internet. How do you know that Kelly wasn't in the process of informing people when Mortenson's source leaked the news? This seems to have happened really quickly.
quit kissing this scumbags ass.
