He was asked straight up that exact question and he didn't answer it. He didn't rudely ignore it but he simply began talking about Howie, Don and himself working together.
He's been spending time with the players, he said there had been a players only meeting this morning and there would be another one this afternoon as well as meeting with individual players. I took him to be sincere in his concern for them in the middle of this shit storm. He addressed a question about a new coach and the kinds of things he was looking for and one of the things he said was that he must have a heart. I found that interesting.
I don't think Chip is a bad guy. I just don't think he likes being social which can give him a bad rep. I do think he's too arrogant though. Had he agreed to just coach he'd probably still be there, but his arrogance led to his demise. There's been a lot of talk about him going to the SEC. I'm sorry but I just don't see that happening. To coach in the SEC you NEED to be social. Coaches in the SEC spend a great deal of time with the media, boosters, alumni etc... I'd also be surprised if any NFL team showed any interest in him for the same reasons that got him fired in Philly. Chip may well have screwed himself over pretty good in this deal.
