I will just create this thread given that when I signed in there was about a dozen notifications with people mentioning me about Chip Kelly going to Cal now that Dykes has been fired.

I will respond to those who seem to think this is a possibility. It is not going to happen. Plain and simple. There are so many factors that play a role in this as to way Chip would not go to California Golden Bears. I believe Minnesota had a better chance at landing Kelly then Cal does. Yes it is that improbable.

Look, Chip has a great relationship with the UofO and Phil Knight. IF he were to return to coaching in the college ranks, he would not go to the PAC-12 let alone the PAC-12 North. Chip showed how loyal he is with staying with San Francisco and not bailing on them with games remaining on the schedule. We got a little peak of who he is and its loyalty. He wouldn't go into the same conference and same division as those he respects at the UofO.

Cal also is more focused on academics then they are athletics, so don't expect Cal to fork out the money or even care that much to have success on the field to try and get Kelly. The Bears simply don't care.

Cal's athletic department I have read is already in massive debt, and hiring Kelly and his staff would further put them in mega debt. Read the few sentences above about Cal not caring about athletics and I don't see their admin agreeing to pay a lot of money for a head football coach.

Welp this all but makes it offical. Kelly to Cal. Based on his loyal relationship to knight I expect Cal to get a lucrative Nike contract with neat uniform combos.

Chip going to Texas at this point makes more sense then it does he going to CAL.

You guys are goofs. If you even read some of the sources out there who talk about who CAL is interested in, not one has Chip as a name.
