Chip Kelly’s recruiting approach at his last college stop could have been described as few stars, just talent. What happens when a coach known as a developmental genius finally gets to stock his roster with some of the nation’s top players? “It boosted it a little bit,” Addison said, adding that he wanted to know who Kelly would hire as defensive backs coach and offensive coordinator. There is increased urgency for Kelly to announce his coaching staff because of the new early signing period that starts Dec. 20. The recruiting class Kelly inherited from Jim Mora includes 18 players who have committed to UCLA, according to Scout.com, including six who were awarded four stars on the recruiting service’s five-star scale.
