Wilcox to Oregon, with a big budget would be a good hire IMO.
Ucla about to get soo lucky. Get paid to get rid of chip and then bring in the lane train.
When you say EB, do you mean KD?I could see UCLA bring in EB if chip leaves for oregon.

If that happens, hopefully UCLA is looking at stability as their number one quality with their next coachUCLA fans are begging the AD to lower Kelly's buyout from $9m to $5M to help make it more palatable for UO to hire him away. What an amazing gift to fall in UCLA's lap if Kelly were to take the Duck job. Of course, never underestimate UCLA's ability to match with another awful hire.
I actually think Chip has that team right on the edge of being very, very good.
True enough. This could be their ceiling. They’ve been mediocre at best for a while.UCLA has lived on that edge for 50 years no matter who was the HC.
Good logicIf UCLA loses Kelly, their norm would be an NFL guy.
Doug Pederson needs a job & won a SB the last time he followed Chip in a job.
EB has the UCLA ties and would almost certainly be on their list.
Ken Norton Jr is from LA & played for the Bruins. Been DC with the Seahawks the past several years & was a good recruiter at USC.
EB is running out of NFL teams to interview with, he may want to take any decent HC job he is offered at this point if he wants to prove himself as a HC.EB is the odds on favorite to be the next Raiders HC. I doubt he wants to come back to college.
I agree with this statement! Go to UCLA, show that you can call plays and run an organization, then in 4-5 years if you did good, go to the NFLEB is running out of NFL teams to interview with, he may want to take any decent HC job he is offered at this point if he wants to prove himself as a HC.
This. He's been the so called "favorite" for enough NFL jobs at this point that I think he'll recognize the old adage about a bird in hand.EB is running out of NFL teams to interview with, he may want to take any decent HC job he is offered at this point if he wants to prove himself as a HC.

Never underestimate the ability of rich old men to waste moneyThat can’t be right. Or else Phil knight has Alzheimer’s.
I know you’re joking, but Phil Knight employs a very sophisticated tax avoidance strategy using GRATs and charitable contributions (to the University of Oregon and others). He’s estimated to have saved over $3 billion in taxes. The sh!t he does with the Oregon AD has all sorts of ulterior motives, although he clearly wants the team to win a championship.Never underestimate the ability of rich old men to waste money
