Ha...Good for him...especially if they liked him back.From what I’ve heard he would fit right in with the culture that was around with some past coaches. He liked the younger ladies while in Eugene.

I keep coming back to this when I talk with my friends. Why hire the student when you can hire the teacher? You have to pursue Kelly if you're Moos. Do I think Kelly is probably a little bit prickly? Yup. And if I had to cover him in the media that would suck. But guess what? I don't. I don't watch press conferences or anything like that so I frankly don't care if the guy is a raging dic* to the media. The media will turn on him regardless. I totally get that Kelly doesn't want to recruit supposedly. Guess what? NO coach likes recruiting. It's absolutely terrible. Kelly has already lived in a fishbowl when he was the coach of the Eagles so nothing Nebraska can throw at him is going to shake him (I've changed my stance on this. Philly sports fans are maniacs.) Plus he's already spent time recruiting to Eugene, OR which is nearly as difficult to get to as Nebraska.

Do we honestly believe Chip Kelly would come to Nebraska?
I'm not saying you didn't hear this stuff but there have been articles written about Chip Kelly being so private that even his friends and family are sworn to secrecy. His profiles even said he had never been married until his ex-wife had to prove it.From what I’ve been told, he always had one on his arm.
I emphatically agree 100%. Kids know who Chip Kelly is
I emphatically disagree.For sure!
First off they would dominate the division next year. Secondly, he doesn't like recruiting (I think that is overblown) but I also think he is about the point where he doesn't need to recruit like some brand new guy. His name and offense is the recruiting.

I meant this.I emphatically disagree.
I don't care who you are, you have to take recruiting serious and be committed to it. Even Urban and Nick know how important it is and work hard at it.

This doesn't strike me like the type of guy that casually walks around with young women on his arm for everyone to see.
Doesn't Chip Kelly's career path look similar to Nick Saban's?
Both had pretty good success in college. Both tried the NFL and failed. One went back to college and had great success....and hasn't jumped back to the NFL.
I would be fine hiring Kelly.
I think that top 15 classes at Oregon is pretty darn good. I know there is the Nike money and the cool unis, but it's not around a huge amount of talent.Their paths look similar - their approaches do not. Especially in regards to recruiting rankings.
