Chip Kelly has no plans to bring back his Oregon offense at UCLA

“Oregon was a long time ago. It’s totally two different operations. That was 2012. They had a lot of success with the single-wing in the 1930’s, too. Football evolves. Things evolve,” Kelly said (via the Los Angeles Daily News) while advising the reporter to “drop that take.”
“I never said when we came in here that we were going to run the offense we ran when we were at Oregon, so I don’t know why that continues to come up as a question.”
“I don’t look back at our Oregon offense and really study that tape and say, ‘Hey, we should do that here.’ We’re always trying to figure out what our guys here do well and try to actuate that. It’s consistency. Because we have done it well. It’s a consistency thing, not a, ‘Hey, let’s go find another offense,’” Kelly said, via the LA Daily News.
Kelly says his team’s slow start is mainly a product of being inconsistent and a new group of players that is still trying to come together as a cohesive unit.
“There’s a lot of brand new faces that you’re fitting in there. You’ve got to fit different guys in there, but I think there were times on Saturday where I thought we were good on offense and moved the ball,” Kelly said. “The thing I think we need to strive for is consistency. We’ve proven at times, in every game, that we can move the ball down the field, but then there are times where we shoot ourselves in the foot. Those are the little things we have to correct.”
In the ideal world, Kelly, seemingly without a hint of irony, said he’d love to run the wishbone offense because “then you don’t even have to put in a pass offense if you’re really good at that.”
“I would love to run the wishbone,” Kelly said. “I would love to run the ball every play for the entire game and never have to throw the football. But that’s not going to happen.”

UCLA brass be like

I heard that on the radio today and the first thing that came to mind was he wants to get back to the NFL, and he feels like going back to the Oregon offense will only hinder his chances.

People here have been acting like he's running the same offense he ran at Oregon. People here aren't watching UCLA play. It was obvious in that Cincinnati game. They take a long time between plays. I figured he was waiting to get his players in before he cranked it up. He'd be a fool to not try to speed the offense up because what he's doing now clearly isn't working.

Chip Kelly is slowly morphing into a potato.

At this rate, Kelly will be lucky to get his next job at the Pop Warner level, let alone high school.

Chip Kelly is definitely on the Mount Rushmore of Coaches overrated by the TD MSB

He acts like 2012 was 25 years ago. Has that much changed since then? Seems like an odd comment.

Playing in that system he had at Oregon while being in Los Angeles would be a pretty good selling point to recruits. 2012 wasn’t that long ago.

This fat POS is destroying what little is left of UCLA football. Why couldn’t he have gone to Florida
Posted on 9/17/19 at 8:54 pm to Paul Allen
Didn’t he start running that offense in the 90’s at New Hampshire? He road the Oregon offense up the coaching ladder. He also had a unique coaching style from the way he ran practices to calling plays.
Now he’s completely abandoned that offense. No wonder UCLA is struggling.

Because your team absolutely sucks?
Posted on 9/17/19 at 8:54 pm to Dr RC
And to think I dreaded the thought of Florida hiring him. Smh

I think going 2-10 is a bigger hindrance than his offense.

Ok Chip, I’ll bite.
Football has evolved, so does your UCLA offense reflect that? Because to me it looks like a blander version of a bland offense from 10 years ago.

So the guy who refuses to recruit because of his belief in his system is not going to be implementing his system because... reasons?
Posted on 9/17/19 at 9:01 pm to Dr RC
Kelly has "evolved" UCLA into a 2-10 type program, at a time the PAC12 is the worst it's ever been.
Posted on 9/17/19 at 9:14 pm to Dr RC
I like Leach's "if it aint broke..." take on things
Posted on 9/17/19 at 9:22 pm to Dr RC
Doesn’t have the speed to run it
Posted on 9/17/19 at 9:36 pm to Dr RC
Les Miles finally succumbed to the spread/RPO while Chip Kelly no longer wants to go up tempo. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.

He is going all Charlie Weiss with his inevitable and rapid descent down the coaching ladder.
