There is much happiness in Eugene and throughout Oregon this evening!!! Eugene is a great place to live. He is making about $3mil a year now, or so I heard. He has a great program in place. Why leave? I am glad to see he made the wise decision. I know that for me, given the choice of living in Eugene, Cleveland, Buffalo or Philadelphia, it would take me less than split second to choose Eugene.

Not only that, but the steadier job is with Oregon. What is the incentive to move to Cleveland or the others? For 2 or 3 years, then most likely get canned due to impatience or even performance, and then what?

I think Chip Kelly would have been a big time risk for a team to take. He's one of the brightest offensive minds in college football right now, but he has zero professional coaching experience. The coaches that have made a successful jump from college to the NFL -- Pete Carroll, Greg Schiano, Jim Harbaugh -- all had experience at the professional level either as a player or coach.
The coach I'd be keeping my eye on at the college level that may be rehabilitating his name as a coach is Jim Mora Jr. The interesting thing about that is that I remember hearing back in 2007 when Miami was looking for a coach to replace Nick Saban, Randy Mueller was pushing for Jim Mora Jr. behind the scenes. The powers that be wanted an offensive mind though.
I've always felt Mora was a good coach that was saddle with a lousy quarterback in Atlanta, and he made the best out of what he was given.MrClean and eltos_lightfoot like this. -
Well look at that, he's staying for the sanctions. Classy.

Here is an unusual story, that shows the sort of class that Chip Kelly has. This is something I have never heard of a coach doing at any level.

Over the past 40 years, the Ducks have been by far more successful. 228 wins compared to 162. So, I suppose the feelings of hatred those Beavers fans have toward the Ducks amounts largely to childish or petty jealousy. -

No high horse here, lad. Just saying what I've noticed in my 40+years as a Ducks fan. -

I just heard it on the local news. I feel sick to my stomach right now. After the announcement he was staying especially, only to turn around and renege on it. It feels like getting stabbed in the back. I'm pretty sure the neckless, slobbering, mouth breathing, knuckle dragging Oregon State fans are thrilled as can be though.
-
Sorry man. I'm sure you wanted him to stay at Oregon. I'm really interested to see if his offense will work in the NFL though.

sanctions must be coming to Oregon
-
Lol.

Ouch, that one's going to sting...
