These are the moves of a man

[RSE]

Who knows that no matter how disastrous those moved turn out to be, he's got an eight figure job waiting for him in college.

Chip can't lose.

Howie is drooling in anticipation of his failure. ITYS out the ass for HowLo

If Chip were an NFL lifer, he never would have pulled these moves. He'll he'd never have been given this kind of power. He's bulletproof.

[CCPete]

Yup. It's a win/win for him. If it all blows up, he's back on campus enjoying a nice new contract. And we are looking up at the The rest of the NFC East.

Chip is more aggresive than when Saban/Spurrier were in the NFL. . Chip has all the leverage here if he mortgage the future for some kid that is nowhere near a can't miss pick like a Manning or Luck.

This I agree with

Of course it could always blow up more spectacularly than did Saban/Spurrier.

Good. He appears to be applying his strategy fully rather than half-assing it to keep fans/media/etc. happy with how it looks.

It may not work, but at least it's going to be attempted earnestly.

That's the value wager right now.

[Maniac]

If he lets Maclin walk and replaces Foles, I agree.

[Drama Queen]

I read that as an unintentional compliment as well.

[McCarthy12]

Could be the case but I just think he's really confident. I'm not sure the possibility of failure is something he even considers. Why would he? He's been pretty successful everywhere he's been so far.

If you are going to take a gamble, (or at least be unconventional in your plan) give yourself the best possible environment to make that happen.

[Raptor]

Sounds like a man....

Chip can't lose.

...who is all in on his convictions, has a vision and a plan.....sounds like a leader.


You may not like his methods but its refreshing after the stale plodding of AR.


The end result is yet to be determined.

[bobbyuk]

I resepctfully disagree. Why not blow it up since they haven't won a playoff game since 2008.

[RSE]

Disagree with what? That Chip's not taking any personal risk?

Spurrier, Saban, Holtz and Petrino all bombed in the NFL and were welcomed back to college football with open arms. Chip knows even if he's dead wrong he winds up with an eight figure payday working less and coaching kids. So why not raze the Novacare Center and rebuild it? I respect him for doing it his way, but I don't admire him.
