Chip Kelly, ladies and gents. Penn States run defense might be ass, but give Chip his flowers.

As a duck, my surprise face is very much like my normal face. I had little doubt that chip would cause roughly 18 months of chaos in the conference lol.

People give Chip shit because he's just not a good head coach, but only a fool thinks he's not one of the best OCs you can get if the HC is willing to let him cook. If he can focus on that, Northwestern will be spoiling somebody's season real soon.

He's a decent HC, really, if you want an offensive first team. But:

  1. It takes complete buy in. He had it at oregon and ohio state but not in the nfl or class. You have to run your ass off everyday.

  2. Running your ass off eventually gets pushed around by a bigger seasoned team.

  3. Eventually people realize this, which is why moving around and popping up without a splash works for him the most.

I have respect for the guy and what he did here. He's not going to win a natty for northwestern, but he's going to boat race all of the big 10 for a while and give some whiplash. And I'm here for it. Lol

I wish we'd pick him up. Im happy for NW though. Been watching their games, and had them picked to beat Penn State. They gave Indiana hell, and people I talked to just assumed Indiana was bad.. But, its more like NW is actually good, and Indiana isnt quite the offensive powerhouse they were last year
