... right?
He spells out what happened, and the timing:
Chip made a proposal to Ucla about needed changes. Day asked chip to come to tOSU. Chip said, "look, I owe it to Ucla to give them a chance to step up and make the program competitive. I'm gonna make a proposal. If they agree, I'm staying. If they refuse, I'm leaving."
Day: how long is that gonna take?
Chip: lol. It's uc fvcking la. Probably weeks.
Day: I can't wait that long.
Chip: I know. I love you, dude. You have to do the right thing for you and your program. If it's meant to be, it will be.
Day: ok, I'll keep you posted.
(Time passes)
Day: chip, I'm going with BOB.
chip: ok. Understood. Good luck, my friend!
(Time passes)
Chip: well, Ucla rejected my proposal. As I expected. But hey, I had to try. I couldn't in good conscience just bail out without giving Ucla a chance to meet me halfway.
Day: so what now?
Chip: im looking
Day: seriously?
Chip: fvck yeah! Dude...I WANT TO WIN A FVCKING NC OR A SUPER BOWL. That's all that really matters to me at this point. I've done everything else. Those are the two mountains left to climb.
Day: I love that! You go, Chip. I'm pulling for you.
Chip: thx, brother
(Time passes)
Day: Chip, you're not going to believe this.
Chip: lay it on me
Day: BOB is out.
Chip: what?
Day: yep. He's taking the BC HC job.
Chip: GTFOH
Day: yeah. One of his...
Chip: oh yeah, I know, his kid has medical needs
Day: right.
Chip: wow
Day: yeah, so...
Chip: so.
Day: we doing this?
Chip: you're GD right we're doing this
Day: my ninja
