Re: Chip Kelly
Id really rather not say as it is that far out there. I did mention it in another thread with the disclaimer it could have just been drunk talk from a former player.DAT_man_again wrote:What is the ridiculous name you heard?TualatinDuck wrote:KOD could it possibly be the same ridiculous name I was told?greenyellow wrote:That's a relief.

Re: Chip Kelly
I heard Urban from three different media sources today, I would be shocked, but it would be sweet. Two reports stated Meyer and Knight a pretty good friends and that's why Phil was at the Michigan Ohio St game. Again I don't think there's a chance in Hell, just what I have heard from shock Jocks...........but would love it. $$$$$$ talk.Urban Meyer for those who dont know how to use the search function

Thats the dumbest rumor I've ever heard. Thanks you KOD for not reposting such a ludicrous rumor.

Re: Chip Kelly
Sounds like the former player is a victim of the telephone game. Someone let's it slip that Schiano is a candidate. Someone else says, "I can't say who, but let's just say it's a big name coach from Ohio State". Next guy says we're locking up Urban Meyer and it goes from there. I'd love it to be true, but things behind the scenes at tOSU would have to be near nuclear meltdown for Urban to leave, and even then he still might not. tOSU would likely match anything we threw at him, so money wouldn't be the motivator.GrandpaDuck wrote:Urban Meyer for those who dont know how to use the search function.TualatinDuck wrote:

Re: Chip Kelly
I mean, we did try to hire Tom Izzo away from Michigan State at one point. So I wouldn't be too shocked to learn that we actually did give Urban an offer even knowing there was absolutely no chance of him actually accepting...

Just because there's a goalie, doesn't mean you can't score, right?desertfan wrote:I mean, we did try to hire Tom Izzo away from Michigan State at one point.

Re: Chip Kelly
Chuckie Gruden has been my dream from the beginning, but yeah, most likely too good to be anything close to true.
Fleck is my #1 realistic choice by far. Followed by Taggart/Oklahoma OC.

Re: Chip Kelly
Hell we talked to Gruden about the OC job before hiring Helfrich for it. Never hurts to ask.Duck24 wrote:Just because there's a goalie, doesn't mean you can't score, right?desertfan wrote:I mean, we did try to hire Tom Izzo away from Michigan State at one point.

It would have been thoroughly stunning but Gary Andersen left Wisconsin to go to Oregon State. No really, it happened. No I mean it he did. I saw it on the internet.
