As of late Friday, the Browns and Oregon coach Chip Kelly were close to getting a deal done. The two sides were going to talk again late tonight, and after another session, some feel the deal will get done.
Or will it.
Jason LaCanfora of CBS Sports reminds us all – we’ve seen this with Kelly before, like last season when Kelly played the Bucs, then went back to Oregon at the last minute.
On Chip Kelly, to reiterate, he is calling the shots here. Phil Knight is always on the other line. He left the Bucs at alter a year ago…

It’ll be close and done when there’s a signed agreement, and he informs Oregon he’s leaving. Until then, no one knows
