This is WAY out there...so I'm taking it with a grain of salt at this point.

I can't remember who said it, but someone this week said to look out for Chip Kelly as a possibility if a team were to go after a college guy.

That would suck. The ducks are my second team. Really like what they are doin out there.

[Dpantherman]

There could be some sanctions we don't know about...

[Yaboychris28]

Haha wow. I hope he tries to run his spread O in the pros

[Cat'sGrowl]

Seeing this in a few different places.

PORTLAND -- University of Oregon football coach Chip Kelly is reportedly close to signing a deal with the NFL.

Kelly is in the process of finalizing a deal that would make him the head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

A source close to the situation said Kelly will make the jump to the NFL if he can come to terms on a contract.

This makes me happy because I don't think his stuff will work in the NFL. Reminds me of Spurrier to the Redskins.

As a Trojan fan, I would obviously be stoked if this happened. It would help both of my teams as his style will fail miserably in the nfl....

[Bj-Monster23]

I don't believe it.
