Sources close to Chip Kelly have told ESPN's Adam Schefter that the 49ers' head coach is not just paying lip service to the idea that he is not interested to returning to his former Oregon coaching job or any college, despite speculation to the contrary.
They say Kelly is staying with San Francisco, through the thick and thins of this challenging season.
Colleges that privately have made overtures to Kelly's representatives have been told in no uncertain terms that Kelly is not interested in going back to school.
