What is or isn't failing? Is a .667 season failing? Missing the playoffs failing? Not winning the division championship failing?
Seems no matter the criteria, a lot of NFL coaches are failing.
But it's irrelevant. The pay at Texas will be better, the school is definitely a way bigger deal nationally than the Eagles are, and Kelly isn't going to win a Superbowl anytime soon.
All indications point to yes, he's leaving. I think he would be an idiot not to, really. And the high school - college comparison isn't really valid, since even now coaches switch between college and the NFL, nobody switches between high school and college.
