Yeah I will be fricking pissed if they get Chip Kelly. Nothing is a slam dunk but they would probably be a top 10-15 team by 2019 if they get him. Would suck for us.



Agreed, but you could have said the same thing when Charlie was hired if they could have sat on their ego long enough to give the job to Briles without an interview. Every coaching hire is a chance for Texas to either slip further into the abyss or pull themselves out.

I am honestly more scared of a Tom Herman than a Chip Kelly as Kelly never won a really big bowl game and had so-so recruiting for a guy who cheated so much with such great facilities.

Texas is not an easy fix or anyone especially someone like Kelley. They have an A&M TCU Baylor and Oklahoma problem right now. The most charismatic and talented coach in the world will still need 3 to 4 seasons to come even close to 10 wins

Their facilities ARE amazing. I was up there this summer and dang... the football facility & stadium are like this world to their own that reminds one of the corporate HQ campus of an extremely successful Fortune 100. The frigging stadium has waterfalls flowing off of the sides, the IPF is humongous, and the office/locker room/ ops building absolutely mushroom-stamps Bright. Plus, Eugene is a pretty nice town that has picturesque mountain rivers flowing about 15 minutes away.

It'd be pretty funny if UTx hired Chip and he told them their facilities suck and desperately need upgrading... which would be a rude awakening for that fanbase which doesn't realize that dungeon-like Moncrief-Neuhaus has been totally eclipsed by multiple other programs.
