"There can't be a courtship,” he said. “There is no courtship. I either go and take an NFL job or I coach at Notre Dame forever. This time, I did listen, because it was more I wanted to learn a little bit more about the NFL, because I never had that opportunity.
“But if I get into that situation again and (don't hang up) on an NFL team when they call, I'd better take the job. That's how I see it. And I have no interest in doing that. But there won't be a situation where, 'Hey, coach Kelly's talking to the 49ers.' They should fire me here if that happens.”
I know its slightly off topic (nfl) but we all know he's been looking around. He clearly states if he's courting (this case) 49'rs he should be fired. I argue that the leak in itself is that courtship. If he's looking we are looking! At least thats what i would like to believe is happening. Will be interesting to see what happens at Oregon. Not sure his resume is up to uncle Phils standards especially for 10 mill. I agree possibly Baylor as a landing spot hell why not would fit his character.
