When Steve Sarkisian surprised everybody by leaving Alabama to become the Atlanta Falcons offensive coordinator earlier this week, there's been one name thrown about as a possible replacement more than others. Whether the idea was based in actual reality, or if it just seemed like a fun idea, people mentioned Chip Kelly as a candidate.

But it doesn't appear that it's going to happen.
According to Bleacher Report's Jason Cole, the former Oregon coach has "no interest" in becoming Alabama's new offensive coordinator. It's news that doesn't really come as much of a surprise if you really think about it.

If Kelly wants to return to coaching on the college level, he can get a head coaching job without having to subject himself to being a coordinator for a season. Unlike Sarkisian and Lane Kiffin before him, Kelly's credentials on the college level don't need any rehabilitation.

He's overrated anyway. Bama didn't actually want him.

Good grief, are you people so stuck on yourselves that you don't have a clue to read the board before you post stupid stuff that has already been covered multiple times. This "look at me" syndrome on this board is off the chain.

Why anyone in Chip's situation would want to be a coordinator at any university is just ridiculous.

Being bitched at by Saban is not the job Bama fans make it out to be. Quite frankly, it's a shitty job

Because this hasn't already been posted. Right?

And Cole managed to use Bruce Feldman as a source. Who called Kelly a candidate. And Adam Schefter did as well. After this bleacher report "report".
