Isn't he supposed to be announcing today? I thought somebody posted on here like a week ago that he'd be announcing 12/7, which is today.

Kelly was supposed to be visiting him this week so I imagine if today is the day that Chip and he have already got together, which is probably a very good thing then.

He's announcing his decision on Thursday.
“If everybody in this room just want to be real with themselves, this game could have went either way,” he said. “We turned the ball over a lot. We beat ourself. Just be real with yourself right now. We beat ourself.”

Announcing between Notre Dame and Iowa.

Is there any actual fact behind that statement, or are you just a deuschy Notre Dame fan with nothing better to do than troll on Oregon's board since your team is stuck in perpetual mediocrity.

Well, since Chip is doing an in-home visit with French today, I would imagine we at least have a shot.

Why would he waste money, and something that is more valuable, his time, if French had made it clear it was down to Iowa and Notre Dame?

Calm down. You're the one coming across as douchey.

It was per ESPN. Actually looking on the boards to see what everyone was going to think of the rumors that Chip Kelly is the favorite to take over the Florida job. I don't see the point in him leaving but it is a real possibility. Notre Dame won't be mediocre for long. I'm not worried about that.

I think the Ducks are the longest shot for French but you never know. It is hard to know based on things others say or go off of interviews. As for Chip I am sure he stays here.

It would be totally cool to get French, but with Curtis White in the wings, he would just be gravy. I would totally understand if he was concerned about playing time, and went elsewhere.

Am I just bracing for disappointment? Maybe.

As much as I hate the Irish, I find it difficult to really root against your team now that you have BK as coach. He comes across as a genuinely humble and decent fellow-not at all like the fat guy.

He looks like he attended the Bo Pellini biggest sideline asshole in America school of coaching. And I hate the ND too.

What's weird is from what I've heard is that Oregon is the front runner according to Iowa boards. Then according to ESPN he will choose between ND and Iowa. It just doesn't make any sense really. I guess we will find out around 4:00 Eastern time.

Wow, I thought the "fat guy" was much more humble than BK. BK seems like a win at all costs prick.

My source just said Chip is officially back!
It will be announced at Autzen press conference tomorrow afternoon!
