We take for granted that two programs with the profile and reach of UCLA and Florida would chase after Chip Kelly. That's important to remember, because if the Bruins think that Kelly will do in Westwood what he did at Oregon, they are going to be disappointed.
When Kelly took over the Ducks nine years ago, he took over a program good for eight or nine wins a season and turbocharged it into national prominence. Kelly's up-tempo spread offense revolutionized college football. That's the only way a program like Oregon, with little winning tradition and even less of a local recruiting base, could play on the national stage.
