But if anyone could reinvent the wheel I would think it would be Chip.

This is why I think Taggart could be successful. He's going to run a hybrid power spread. Fast, but more focus on the power run game. It's going to be fun.

Do you think Chip could bring it again like he did at Oregon or do you feel the game has caught up to him and now he is just a average coach?

I think Chip may be like a select few other successful college coaches, who have dipped their toes into the NFL waters, with limited success... Not necessarily catching "lightning in a bottle" like he did at Oregon, but given the right location, able to produce highly competitive teams on a very consistent basis.
Autzen Stadium... Where great teams go to die...Hard!

I think Chip could be a very successful college coach again, maybe not at the level he reached at Oregon. Two things he had going for him at Oregon was, one, his offense was new and other teams could not defend it. Also he had the advantage of being the OC for the Ducks for two years before the HC opened up, he had two years to recruit his players. I would love to see him in College ball again, just not the PAC.
