We are not worthy of his analysis


Gives me a reason to tune into ESPN now. I'm curious to see how he breaks down the games from his his experiences

I don't think Bob Ley can keep up with their pace.

damn how much does he hate coaching college football? he would have easily been one of the top 4 highest paid coaches had he gone back.

His personality is a dumpster fire.

With his uptempo style, he'll always be talking and not giving anyone a chance to cut in.

No kidding. Oregon was open and he was more interested in NFL OC jobs

I hope Sumlin stays at A&M for the next 15 years.

Oregon would have written a blank check.

College football is kind of like a sales job that sounds good on paper but in actuality is a frick ton of cold calling and quotas to meet to reach your goals


I don't blame him if he rather would stick to the administration side of things if he feels like that shite is for the birds

He was an NFL head coach till nearly a month after the Oregon job was filled. He didn't pass on college gigs, they were long filled.

Unless this coming offseason's open jobs are pure shite, ESPN is a one year stepping stone.

You really think that if Chip told Oregon he'd take that job after the NFL season that they wouldn't have waited for him?

You read recruiting stories now from coaches - I've read some Kiffin stuff from years ago - and it sounds annoying as hell - hand-holding job for delicate recruits who need constant attention...texting, calling, making them feel special.

Used to be you'd go to a H.S. game once, go to a recruits home once, and he'd either commit or not. Now all these kids want the attention for extra ranking stars, can't make up their minds and constantly flip-flop to get in the news.

He will never lose another game, never be "wrong" in his analysis, and never have to kiss 17 year old arse again.

Recruiting is a bitch then on top of that, you got Boosters you have to bow down to. Only way I can ever see Kelly go back to College ball is if he landed an already powerhouse HC position in a football town. Kinda like what Saban has. Alabama's brand and repetition Recruits for itself. There's only a few schools I can see it for though.
