I….got nothin for ya. I guess the thought is ucla is absolutely ****ed in the big 10 and he left while there was still a job he could use to leapfrog into an actual job?
According to the internet 1. Chip has been in disfavor since at least 2020. UCLA didn't can him this off season because they didn't want to pay his buyout. That AD has serious financial problems.
It's also widely rumored that 1. Chip hates a lot of the BS that comes with being a head coach and that one attractive thing about the job is that Ryan Day will let him be a play caller, not a recruiter, manager, schmoozer, etc.
If he couldn't get a NFL OC job, being OC at Ohio State (he goes way back with Ryan Day) isn't a bad gig.
