Anybody going to make an attempt at my original question? Is chip Kelly hire just as bad as bill O’Brien hire?

After watching BOB for 2 years I don't see how Chip Kelly wouldn't be an improvement.

Saw that too but in that section he doesn’t quote anyone or even say a source said… yet had a lot of other quotes and sources say… in the article. Even in the same article talked about Chip Kelly interviewing and I have heard that Chip Kelly was interviewed on Tuesday or Wednesday by the Seahawks, just interesting that Grubb was hired right after Kelly accepted the Ohio State OC job on Friday. Who knows though.

This was the same writer on an article when Chip Kelly took the Ohio state job. This was written the 9th He has sources saying there are still other candidates that may surface that hadn’t yet lol.

I hope I am wrong about the loss of Huff. Pulling for his replacement.

Certainly wanted Huff, but if DeBoer can get Searles from UGA that would be a major addition.

And honestly, after what we've had the last few years, we're going from a negative to a positive with almost anyone....just a matter of how large that positive can be.

Most state positions take time to get approved and actually by law have to be open a set number of days. A different state but when I took my position as a new assistant basketball coach the position still had to be posted for 10 days before interviewing then board approval it was all really a formality and paperwork but it took over a month before I signed contract.

Yeah, I know, I'm a state worker as well. I just struggle to believe there is not a mechanism in place where "workers " like coaches have to wait that long to get their hire approved yet can still go out and recruit, represent the school and not be under contract that protects the program. Just sounds like a big loophole in the process that can leave the program holding the bag.

They sign and work under a MOU until contract details are finalized.

Do these types of contracts have things in place to protect the program, like some frm of a buyout?

They have some mechanisms in place, but generally not a buyout because that's one of the details that takes a while to negotiate, like finer points of compensation, staff salaries, facilities issues, and some benefits.

MOUs were a popular topic after the UT-Schiano fiasco.

That's not smart business, but again, I work for the state so it doesn't surprise me one bit.

It's the only way you can hire someone in a position like that, that quickly. It's basically a temporary contract until the final terms can be agreed upon.

It is not the only way, but it is the way that everyone has chosen in this very broken world where your word is meaningless.

The rich will only get richer as the top coaches come back as coordinators, or move on to the NFL.

As I tell my staff at work when I'm told "we can't".

"We can put a man on the moon and an object on Mars multiple times. I think we can figure out a better way."

Are you sure we put a man on the moon?

Yeah. Would've been better to say . . . "Seems like the only way," or "most common." But, I can't remember another method used in coaching when the hire is so quick, or even not quick.
