The thinking is that play-calling is too much for Day to handle. They mention a guy like Chip Kelly coming in to run the offense. It wouldn't happen because Day does not want to give up play-calling. Play calling HC is not the structure the Top Programs have.
Kelly's stature is going to decrease so much after he is fired next year that his landing spot will be as an OC at a school like Notre Dame or Penn State.
Wow. Prophetic.
Pete Carroll was in actuallit the DC calling the defenses for USC in his glory years it wasn't until he also wanted to be OC that they began to slip...so your take is not all that correct. OU is looking at Seth Littrell as OC and he called plays as a HC.. I'm sure there are others even if they have an OC in name only on their staffs..
I will drive his fat ass to that interview.
