Kelly can flat out coach and some big schools money will lure him away from Cinncinatti.

Hmmm...$1.5MM vs the $3+MM UcheaT would throw at him. Super tough decision there.

They only average 31,000 in attendance? That is about the size of one of Tennessee's end zones.

They are ranked 16th. Doesn't sound like he's earning his money.

of course he'll come if they offer it. Yes, Tenn plays second fiddle to Florida and Alabama in the SEC, but give me a break, if Kelly wants to advance as a coach he'd jump at the chance to coach Tenn.

He's not going to go to Tennesse, honest.

Of course, when he orders all of the cell phones confiscated from his players at the bowl game, all bets are off!

Alot more money at UT, but there is a boat load more pressure to go with it. 1.5 mill aint exactly minimum wage, and Taking the Big East title ain't exactly as hard as winning in the SEC.

I'd stay put.

still clever as ever with UcheaT huh?

by linking kelly???s reassurance to his players and the bonus money he still has left to earn this season, this article is actually implying that Kelly is still going to look at UT (that is how it is spelled) but he doesn't want the apathy of his players to hurt his wallet.

With the new taxes about to hit, he'll probably take $5.63 more home than before. Not really worth it!!

stay with cincy' have a chance of winning the big east each season and go to a bcs bowl...go to ut and be lucky to finish 3rd in the sec east and pile up 7-5 and 6-6 seasons. no thanks keep the extra 1.5 mil...I ain't greedy.

sethgator well said what nobody is telling you who is going to be paying you after you get fired from UT in three years cause they aren't willing to wait and rebuild

UcheaT

Whatever his chronological age, it's clear that GatorBaitor's emotional maturity is that of a prepubescent boy. Despite several posters' attempts to encourage him to raise the level and tone of his discourse, he's far to impressed with his own sophomoric coinage to heed wiser counsel. Perhaps, it's best if we just ignore him.

Badgerfan,
If Kelly is as good as everybody says, it shouldn't take him 3 years to come out on top. UT had a very good recruiting class this past year & there is still a lot of talent @ UT (just need some good coaching to mold them). He should have plenty of talent to work with. It didn't take Urban Meyer 3 years to rise to the top. If Kelly is that good "CREAM always rises to the top !!!!

Of course he's not going to address coaching rumors while his team is in the running for a BCS bowl bid. This is a non-story and means nothing about what he will do after the season.

UT isn't a "3rd in the SEC East" job when they have a good coach. Saying otherwise shows a huge amount of ignorance about that program. Gator fans are just used to Fulmer, who is a mediocre coach at best.

Like other coaches held up as possible candidates, Kelly will publically dismiss talk of UT and refocus the press et al upon their current team's challenges and fortunes. Expect nothing of substance to surface until after the season ends.

There's more to life and coaching than the money. Jim Grobe's been at Wake Forest for eight seasons.

Silly! Even with a terrible accountant, 74 percent (that's Bush) of $1.5 million is $1.11 million, while 71.1 percent (Obama) of 3 million is 2.133 million. That's a 48 percent raise instead of a 50 percent raise. What's the big deal?

he and urban are a lot alike.with one exception...urban is located in a state where talent is rich and plentiful, ut is located in a state that isn't even recognized for prep talent in football.he's better off stayin at uc,recruiting under recruited cincy kids,stealing a few from the state of florida and stealing all the mid west kids who dont get osu,psu,um,nd offers.if he goes to ut he'll win but not enough.he wants bcs wins and ut cant get him that.its not the 90's anymore man
