I have the gut feeling that Kelly will end up at Florida. They have one of the best recruiting bases in the country which is ideal for Chip. He won't need to put in as much effort to get top players there as he would at other places. Plus Florida is a place that just refuses to put up with mediocrity. They fired Ron Zook even though Florida finished ranked in the top 25 in the Coaches Poll all three years he was there. They got rid of Will Muschamp two years after he led them to a top 10 finish. They're not going to keep McElwain around just because he's won a terribly weak SEC East the last two years. Florida is losing a number of top defensive players to the NFL Draft. I see them struggling next year and I think there's a very good chance that they'll get rid of McElwain to go after Chip.

SEC will not be fun for Chip. Recruiting reigns supreme and the competition is intense. You won't sustain success being a lazy recruiter

He left the perfect situation for his skill set. He had a chance to go back and his ego won't allow it.

McElroy-Kelly would not be effective recruiting in Florida. Because he would have to compete with Jimbo, Mark Richt, Kiffin, Charlie Strong for Florida recruits.
