Philadelphia Eagles head coach Chip Kelly emphatically denied Thursday he had any interest of returning to the college coaching ranks.
"No. No. No. No. No," Kelly responded when asked if he was considering in the slightest taking over the USC Trojans, per Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice.com. The Trojans fired Steve Sarkisian earlier in the week.
With openings at USC, Maryland and South Carolina and the Eagles' disjointed start to the NFL season, fans have wondered whether Kelly could follow the paths of Nick Saban, Jim Harbaugh and Bobby Petrino.
