I bet Chip Kelly goes to UCLA.
Can blend in in LA and doesn’t have to glad hand with the same pressure as an SEC program.
Will have a domino effect though that starts with Florida and will work it’s way all the way down to Ole Miss
Should also make A&M think twice about firing Sumlin unless they are 100% sure Fisher will take the job.
Can get a better coach next year while Sumlin wins 8-9 games in 2018.
Wasn't expecting that. Think he'd consider moving "up" to Oxford?
Chip knows that area of the country he's gotta be interested.
I'll go ahead and get the post out of the way,"Mullen to UCLA".****
To make it worse, today's Mora's birthday. I think it'll be Chip as well
UCLA isn’t a premier job. They’re behind USC in their state and arguably Stanford at this point. Kelly isn’t going there.
Correct on your points, but I think he would go there.Quote:

UCLA is a very tough job.
If many more jobs come open, C34 may get a call.
Are there enough viable candidates to fill all these jobs?
Some teams are going to fire a better coach than they hire
Sumlin may hold on anyway if they beat LSu
Petrino to UCLA. Man think of all the blondes out there.
Sumlin will throw his name in. If Chip takes it, he doesn’t care about winning nattys.
Unless they can get Fisher, I just don’t see how they upgrade this year.Quote:

Sumlin could also be throwing his name in to create leverage with A&M. Same thing Malzahn could be doing with ArkQuote:

UCLA, Florida, Tennessee are already open jobs. Then you have Arkansas that's probably going to make a move next week after they lose to Missouri. Still got the chance that some other jobs open up. Gonna be a lot of rebuilds at decent programs open to coaches, but not enough for them all to snag really good head coaches.
Is he an upgrade over Sumlin?Quote:

A&M wants Sumlin gone and Sumlin wants out. He’s going to go after a job.
Hey, that’s A&M. They’re different.Quote:

Brohm is a stud. I used to watch all the western Kentucky games when he was there. Dude can coach. He would win big at uf with all that speed and athletes in stateQuote:

He's not going hungry.Quote:

I don?t see anyone else being willing to touch him. Sumlin to Florida might actually work if they don?t get Chip.
Between 2008 and 2012, Oregon recruiting classes were ranked between 34 and 12. Average around 23, but played like a top-5 team ever year.Quote:
