Title: NFL Teams to Pursue Chip Kelly of Oregon and Bill O'Brien of Penn State

Does this mean Kelly doesn't go to coach at Auburn like there fans are hoping? Auburn thinks they are a prime team and location for Kelly.

Oregon coach Chip Kelly and Penn State coach Bill O'Brien both turned down opportunities to coach NFL teams last offseason. But with upwards of a third of the league possibly making changes in 2013, NFL executives and those involved in potential coaching searches believe both will be pursued again. Kelly turned down a chance to take over in Tampa Bay last year and has subsequently presided over another outstanding season at Oregon. O'Brien was a top candidate in Jacksonville but pulled out of that process to take over at embattled Penn State. He has shined in his first season despite all of the fallout and controversy stemming from the Jerry Sandusky child sexual abuse charges and university cover-up.

I just don't see how Chip Kelly's offense would work against professional defenses with the best athlete's money can buy.

I would think Chip Kelly knows this as well as we do. I don't see him going to the NFL.

It seems like the "NFL executives" would also know it.  :dunno:
