Fiesta Bowl

GLENDALE, Ariz. - The Oregon fans at the Fiesta Bowl, fully aware that the end of the game started the race by NFL teams to woo head coach Chip Kelly away, started the "We-want-Chip!" chant as the final minute of the Ducks' 35-17 win against Kansas State ran down.
They started the chant again during the bowl trophy presentation. What made that unique was that the Oregon players started their own "We-want-Chip!" chant around the podium.
Oregon's biggest, richest and most notable fan stood at midfield and was asked what he thought.
"I want Chip,"said Phil Knight, the Nike co-founder and enormously influential Ducks booster.
Sentiment and unanimity probably doesn't matter for Oregon at this point. Although Kelly said pretty much nothing about his future after the game, when his players talked about him they seemed resigned to him leaving. Kelly said he's never discussed the situation with his players because they had a bowl to play, but his players see the same news everyone else sees. The NFL is after Kelly with a full-court press, and it sure seems like it will take a miracle for Oregon to keep him from making the jump.
