Muskrat No. 1 Share Posted December 10, 2021 The same few naysayers just keep pulling the string. I bet they would whine about Bill Bellicek as Oregon HC with Tom Brady Joining him as OC. They’ll say “they can’t recruit”. Chip Kelly changed the game forever. & he did it here, and he had the most success of any other coach we’ve ever had. He created a buzz like no other, and he did it here. He put us on the National Stage, mostly all by himself. It was genius! and He Deserves Another Chance. A huge majority of The Oregon Fan Base Agrees. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Joseph Moderator No. 2 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Love your optimism. If it's Chip, so be it. But if he cannot recruit LA and he can't? Please check his record since departing Oregon. It is far from pretty. The scheme has been figured out and he will never be blessed with a group of assistant coaches the quality of those he had at Oregon. Chip would be a last gasp hire. Chip has done nothing at UCLA to earn a big pay raise. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrw Moderator No. 3 Share Posted December 10, 2021 As a naysayer, I say nay to Chip. He revolutionized the game of football at Oregon and deserves everyone's thanks and respect. Since then, not much has happened to recommend him for the job. I say it's an attempt to reverse the clock, and climb into a warm bath of nostalgia. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Ducker1 No. 4 Share Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) My thought is that ANY coach we hire could be risky. As others have said just because a coach has had success or even failure doesnt mean we are going to have the same results as they had before--good or bad.

Pocketchange No. 5 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Chip would be a slam dunk hire with the proper staff, but I don’t think he would hire the correct staff for defense and recruiting purposes. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Chip did it all by himself, that idea was a large part why he left, too full of himself, then it would have continued. We need to be careful about bringing somebody in to repeat what he did, when he can't even come close to doing it again anywhere else. There are plenty of coaches who have the same type of record. Let's bring in Coach O, he actually won a national title if we are merely going to try and bring in somebody to do a magic show again. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duckology No. 13 Share Posted December 10, 2021 I say give me Chip or give me death. He almost beat the Ducks this year, he still has that injured QB thing to work out.... He did beat LSU, the same LSU that was even money with Alabama this year until 46 seconds in the fourth.... He dismantled and embarrassed USC...breaking his old most points vs record that he previously held when Barner went off for 328 rushing yards in a game... He played Fresno State as well as the Ducks did... He handled Stanford....something Cristobal couldn't do.. .. He embarrassed Cal, something Cristobal couldn't do... it's his 4th year at UCLA and as everyone knows it takes 3-4 years (exclude covid debacle)..for a coach to get his guys doing his thing....He did it faster at Oregon because he was Oregon's OC when anybody remember Dixon?... Yeah give me some of that back.... Who recruited the NFL rookie of the year again? Chip Kelly.... Kiko not Herbert.... Who recruited the #1 athlete in the country? De Anthony..Chip Kelly... Who recruited former NFL greats kid Long? Who is still playing in the NFL...Chip Kelly. Buckner? Armstead? Ifo? Mitchell? Fischer? Grasu? If you don't want Chip back you don't know football. ..... Please Phil JUST DO IT. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muskrat Author No. 16 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Yes. And just like now, he was the missing link. None of them created that offense. It took him to do it then and now. And yes, get the best DC & OC (&pay them!) in the country. “If you build it They will come” just get him!$! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
