Father of UCLA QB rips ex-49ers coach Chip Kelly for ‘lousy coaching’

Chip Kelly's tenure as UCLA head coach has started much like his one year with the 49ers went: lots of losses.

Kelly and UCLA are 0-3 and things are already getting heated.

Michael Robinson, the father of UCLA's starting QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson, lit into Kelly on Saturday following the Bruins' 38-14 loss to Fresno State.

He is speaking on and about the factual... It is all about the coaching, lousy coaching and play calling... Coaching that is so bad that it demands closed practices... Million dollar coach who bares no responsibility... Just random observations from a frustrated dad!

Look, coach Kelly, if you wish to call him this is 4 and 26 for his last offensively called football games... Dorian has only played in 3 of the last 30 games... Can you say duped!

His years at Oregon was simply a fluke on his part... I am sure that he stood on the shoulders of the actual player callers... Random thoughts, outside looking in, closed practices...

In three games, UCLA has scored just 52 points while allowing 113 points. Under the tutelage of Kelly, Thompson-Robinson has completed 41 of 75 passes for 522 yards and two touchdowns. He's also thrown two interceptions.

The 49ers hired Kelly prior to the 2016 season and gave him a four-year, $26 million contract. But after the 49ers went 2-14, Kelly was fired as the head coach. He spent the 2017 season as a TV analyst before taking the UCLA job earlier this year.
