Santos was an assistant and the QB coach at Columbia a few years ago. My recollection is that he was very highly regarded.

Nearly two years ago Chip Kelly expressed interest in the Harvard coaching position. They selected Andrew Aurich and to this point has been a brilliant decision. Traditionally year three is telling. Did Andrew Aurich benefit in the same fashion as Ray Priore? I doubt it but we'll see.

I have the feeling a few coaches on Penn's wishlist declined . Bringing in Rick Santos seems like an odd choice. At the moment, I can't see how he will advance Penn football- a program that has platued for a decade.

Chip Kelly would have been the one to rejuvenate interest in a program that has become stale. UConn did not seen to have any interest in Chip Kelly.

UNH looks like the perfect landing spot for Chip.

I understand The quick NIL stipends are lucrative. Why haven't we seen any "double dip"? By going to a athletic factory to get a sizable NIL deal ,then return to their original Ivy institution? There'll have to be some academic planning in transferring course work on and out. Andrew Hatch proven it can be done.

I think bringing Chip Kelly back to Philadelphia would not have been a good idea. He left the Eagles under a dark cloud.

I like that the choice was a young coach. He has led a winning program.

Go Quakers and enjoy the holidays

Chip Kelly is way overrated and would have been a poor choice. He also hates recruiting.

Recently, there's Been four coaching openings. Jason Garrett's name didn't come up. Two to three years ago, he was courted by Stanford, but he showed no interest.

He played freshman football at Columbia and played three years at Princeton. Given his Ivy background, his dad and brother were college coachs and his NFL head coach experience, isn't he worth a look or is his desire to coach behind him?

Garrett is probably making mid-seven figures as a broadcaster for NBC.

I mean, it never hurts to ask. But he must REALLY want to coach again to give that up...
