The Chip Kelly watch continues for Florida fans, Florida players, Florida administrators and – in at least one case – a Florida recruit.
Four-star running back Dameon Pierce, a national top-200 prospect, tweeted Tuesday night that the Gators “need to hire Chip” ahead of his planned official visit.
UF Need To Hire Chip So I Can Go Ahead And Take My Official
Pierce (5 feet 11, 205 pounds), from Bainbridge (Ga.) High, committed to Florida on August 6. He selected the Gators after previously decommitting from Alabama.
Pierce, one of the top-10 running backs nationally, also considered Auburn, Florida State and Georgia.
