Chip Kelley comment about North Texas. Can't help but laugh.

akriesman · October 15, 2015

OK. This is pretty damn funny. During Chip Kelley's press conference, he makes a joke about being contacted by colleges with openings. Specifically, they were asking if he was contacted by USC about the job. His comment went something like this....

Reporter: "Chip, have you been contacted by USC ?"

Chip: "No, No. No. North Texas"

Reporter: "State ?"

Chip: "Yes State. The Armadillos or whatever".

Reporters heard laughing.

NT comment starts at the 2:20 mark.

The fun around here never stops. LOL.

I think being the armadillos would have been greatness.

Now even Chip Kelly is making fun of us. FML

The reporter actually started the whole "State" thing. Definitely in a mocking tone. It's actually funny to watch him Chip mock the reporters though.

Chip: "You want to talk about another college ? You have 10 minutes. So, let's talk about North Texas".

But hey, at least our campus was used in a movie that almost any sports fan has seen ;)

Yep, right back to being the joke of college football.

But RV deserves to keep his paycheck...

We will be the answer to the trivia question dealing with the greatest margin of defeat by a 1-AA team of a 1-A for a long time. How's that for famous ?

soooooooooooooooooo... you're saying there's a chance we could land Chip Kelly?

flyingeagle12 · October 15, 2015

soo does that possibly mean we contacted him?

I know i know, we would probably not land him. But if they are calling him, someone is going down the right track on the hiring process.

This is getting a lot of legs on Twitter as well. We are the punchline of college football. F Chip Kelly.

Chip Kelly = RV

wanted to be fired by their fan bases, has been wearing green for more then a decade, and both can say they know how to kill the spirit of an eagle fan....

If I go in to my Assistant Chief's Office next week and ask if I can switch my shift to come on Halloween, he's going to order me to go in for another psych exam.

What do you expect from Philly? Now their coach has as much class as their fans. Not sure why a pro coach is wasting time on the subject of college team 1500 miles away. BTW, their old stadium had a judge and a jail downstairs to deal with their classy clientele.
