Lol. I wonder how many 'fan' resumes they have to sift through to look for legit candidates.

Those pro guys are going to tell Kelly where to stick it if he try's to run a play every 26 seconds. That will be interesting.

I think Kelly is a great coach and did great things for Oregon but I've always looked at OU and other PAC 12 schools as middle tier. Where are the NC's? The SEC has blazed a trail of NC's that I don't think will necessarily stop anytime soon. We add Texas A & M and Missouri and the PAC-12 adds Colorado and Utah. Kiffin is a great recruiter but you don't have to be all that awesome to recruit California. USC had a horrible year with all those 4 and 5 stars they recruited--proving what we've known about Kiffin all along.I'd say the PAC-12 bottom dwellers are worse then the the SEC's. When's the last time Colorado was relevant in football?

Let's be frank 20+ years ago Pac 10 fb was irrelevant beyond USC, some UCLA teams (and a few UW under James). Can't deny the SEC's history and the fact that the brunt of stud players are farther east imo. Oregon has been a work in progress. They were a perennial loser. It took Rich Brooks 20 years to go from 3-8 yearly averages to 6-5. Bellotti averaged 8-3 and eventually 9-2 teams. CK took it the next step in his short time. I went from hoping to see UO in the Rose Bowl, to wondering if I'll ever see them in a NC. Now with Kelly gone I can pass those two along to my son.

Just like what they did to Belichick this year?

The Patriots snapped the ball every 24.9 seconds this past year. Oregon snapped the ball every 20.9 seconds under Kelly.

He may not succeed as a NFL head coach, but New England has proved that a fast tempo can work.

There was a time when Nick Saban had no HC'ing experience.

Good point. Bill B has earned players respect. Kelly is nobody right now. Apples to Oranges JMO
