UF officials reportedly met with Kelly in New Hampshire hours after UCLA announced the termination of former head coach Jim Mora Jr. The coach was expected to weigh his options and decided between the Gators and the Bruins, according to USA Today.

At that time, Kelly had reportedly agreed to a deal with Florida which allowed him to back out for the UCLA job.

It seems like forever since Kelly was running through the college football world at Oregon but his appeal is clear and it seems UCLA has won the battle for his services.
