True. I don't believe he's leaving. Would also be sweet for Shea. Could use a redshirt on him and give him a year to learn the offense and get his feet wet.

For what it's worth, I watched a post game clip of an interview with Chad and he mentioned playing next year.

The second half of the season his toughness showed more every game. In his last 3 games he played as close to Archie play as anybody I have seen in a long time.

Ben tweeted out yesterday that Kelly was coming back next year...lets hope Shea Patterson can learn from him how much being a film rat is required to win in the SEC... According to all I have read Chad Kelly is a clone of Peyton Manning when it comes to game preparation. I like the idea of Shea Patterson taking a redshirt for the future.

I think Chad is probably one of the toughest if not the toughest QB Ole Miss has had in a long time. He is big and strong. According to what I have read Chad is only 6'1" and that is a little small in the NFL now. They like them a little taller to see over the line of scrimmage easier. I think he comes back honestly.

Go back and rewatch the Alabama game.....the hits he took as he released the ball.....and he just kept popping back up. I would've been begging for morphine and a handgun.

Height is only a plus. Not a requirement. They want winners. I think Chad has the potential to play at the next level but I agree with most here saying he needs another year.
