If Fla Hires Chip, are things set up

Not even Saban won his first year at Bama. So no.

nope

Well, he'd get to a bowl game in year 1, for sure.

There's no doubt he'd have the defense playing much better in year 1.

Trick would be the Oline. If he can do something about it so that he can consistently pick up 3rd and short, then he'd start crushing people. No way that gets done in year 1. But, in year 2 maybe.

I think year 3 and beyond he'd be a legit threat to win everything.

If he can steal a game in year 1, he'll be in Atlanta. In year 2, almost a certainty. Kirby Dumb wants no part of Kelly.

I'm not sold on Chip Kelly. Maybe he can prove me wrong. But tempo spread was unheard of when he was at Oregon... It's heard of now. And it hasn't proven to be consistent against SEC defenses.

It will take him atleast 3 years to win a championship if he does. He will need to get his own QB and improve the depth on defense to handle being on the field all the time .

Somewhat but not win the SEC big.

QB - He will be fine if Corral stays. Chip can use Toney or Franks already way better than the shite we had before.

RB - Davis is a stud

Oline - Ehh...needs a bit of work there.

WR - Lots of talent. Be nice to see it used. However his system needs down field blocking. So not sure how Hammond and Cleveland are in that area. As Meyer said...'you has the best blocking wide outs I've ever seen".

DT - needs major help
DE - Good position
LB - Complete shite
S - Harris comes back...it's a good position
CB - Rock solid


So..we need a year to develop depth, but he can win 8-10 games possibly with the current roster.

Second year is like most coaches, his proving year. A coach as good as Kelly doesn't need 4 to build a program like Florida back.

He will be at UCLA next year.

How come the last 3 were bad and did not fix it in short time?

Kelley's system requires a different kind of athlete than what Florida has ever recruited. Several of the current roster might adapt easily and flourish but the majority would struggle. It would probably take him 3 years to reach SEC championship level.

Well, the other 3 coaches struggled might be just what you are saying but there maybe more to it like injuries or too many top teams to beat most of them. At a place like Oregon might not be a problem where Chip got it going. Do not forget there were blowouts lost when Oregon faced SEC teams when he was coach there. So might not work right away and might struggled and then it will blow up just like the last coach.
