Mike Kelly has been named head football coach at Widener University in Pennsylvania. #Bombers #CFL

 

Good for him, it's also close to his favourite jail ...

well he's going to certainly widen the field all right when he introduces the Jet package. I wonder if Brock Ralph is looking for work as an OC...

OC? I'm sure he's still in good enough shape to catch...I mean drop a few balls...

I wonder if "pride" is a word they'll still be using when his time is done there?

How wide are these people at said University ?

Funny how the article talks in depth of most of his career but quickly glosses over 2009 as Bombers HC. If anyone can find a fan forum for Widner Football fans I'd love to read what they are saying right now.

I really really hope that they do a weekly coach's call-in show. And that we can listen to it online somehow.

We are very fortunate to hire a coach with Mike Kelly's vast football experience and a demonstrated commitment to the community and teaching and mentoring college students," said Widener Athletic Director Jack Shafer. "With his background, we look forward to continuing the success of our football team both on the gridiron and in the classroom."

After that train wreck of a season in 2009 it's amazing that Kelly can still  be hired as a head coach.

This Widener place can't be much of a university if they don't even know how to use Google.
