Oregon Is Faster
That is all I will comment on the situation.
Kelly did it the WRONG way for Oregon for sure.
I think this may mean he knows something we don't with regards to the NCAA. He had a loaded team coming back and would have had a fistful of opportunities after next season.
Understood if he took a job immediately following the Fiesta Bowl. Wish he had if he was going to leave and if what is he saying is true, that he always wanted the Philly job, then I don't understand why he did what he did and just didn't go right away.
But to announce you are coming back, have this entire place in a frenzy of excitement and then to announce you are going to Philly out of nowhere with less than 3 weeks until signing day is a bush league move.
No one had any idea he was still in talks with Philly, our AD was completely blindsided, no one knew.
He looks like a Monte Kiffin molester leaving court.
fify.
You guys are on the verge of being a big time program. Now is the time to go after a big name coach. I like Peterson and believe he is a perfect fit culturally for Oregon.
Who’s on your short list for coach?
Mark Helfrich who has been our OC is going to be our new HC. Oregon likes the continuity of the whole situation. We have a great history of promoting from within. Helfrich brings same mindset and style as Chip did. So there won't be much change in our system.
The huge reason we wont offer Peterson is because we like what we got and this style and Peterson would bring in a whole new system and it would take us a couple years to adjust and get going under him.
