Names to consider for our next football coach?

Urban Meyer will only return to coaching if it’s Ohio State.

Egg-on-your-face comment by Meyer at halftime of “The Game”…Ohio State has an advantage at the wideouts…and it’s not even close. You can plainly see it on the field. Then…the Buckeyes go out in the 2nd half and…score 0 points!🤣😂😧
Chip Kelly might be on the hot seat.

Unforgivable.

Imagine...two years ago today Purdue had advanced to the B1G championship game, and today we aspire to be like IU, one the most unsuccessful programs in college football history.

It's horrifying, but if the proper commitment is made and a smart hire is made the tables can be turned quickly.
damn.....that is a sad realization....How far this program has fallen in 2 years. I do agree though, that if the commitment is made, you can make a big turnaround quickly in the NIL and portal environment.
Purdue would also be smart to buyout out of a couple of their games early next year (ND being one) and pad the schedule like iu did. Going up to ND and getting embarrassed again does zero good.

Unforgivable.

That receiver Sirat sp, Purdue doesn’t have anyone near his ability. Their qb is a lot better maybe because of the weapons he has or by just being an older player.
Our lack of passing scheme makes everything worse. If we had any talent anywhere you'd never know because they never get the ball. We run horizontal for 2 plays, then get a panic throw on 3rd down 5 yards short of the sticks. Absurd offense.

Not that you give a heck what I think fellas, but what about Stoops at Kentucky? He is a good recruiter with strong Ohio ties, and is seasoned in leading teams that aren’t at the top of their power conferences. Kentucky fan base is wanting change. I think a good push for him could easily grab him up.

Tough game Saturday. Silver lining is your admin/BOT has zero place to hide after that. No nuance to hide behind… coach must go.

I know you will right the ship. Always do.

Agreed, but from a size, speed, talent level (other than a few positions, like LB and RB), iu doesn't not have a significant advantage. It's not like say, Purdue and Texas for example. It's coaching and everything that goes with it.

Probably no more than one. They are now older players with a coach that knows what is expected from them. Continuity means a lot to these teams. Painter has been able to do it thus far.
I've been wondering how many of the upsets this college season were "4 year teams" (teams that have played together, either at the same school they started at or transferred en masse), against top teams with 4 and five star players for hire. Vanderbilt may fit that example? Going forward I'm going to say it will be a big difference maker. Maybe not for title contenders, but for strong teams that can wreak havoc on the "new normal" transfer and portal Big Boys.

Interesting take on potential BT members #19 & #20 (TAMU and ND)

SEC and Big 10 killing each other during the season, and they will get no benefit from that with the playoff committee. Crossing the country in the Big10 every week going to get old as well.
Yep. Increases the likelihood of them taking their collective balls (every pun intended) and going off to make their own league where they set the scheduling to the best benefit and their own championship that slates who they want.

We're Going To Lose Key Players

I don’t see how any player would want to play for Walters after this year. He is terrible at player evaluation and has no clue on making adjustments . He can talk all he wants, but talk means nothing, it’s what happens that matters
embarrassed. Theyve been embarrassed. They work hard year round to compete and they have nothing to show for it except all time records for losses and point margins. Im shocked we didnt see more issues on the sidelines. I fear purdue is caught with their pants down. I hope they didnt plan on offering up a new commitment to the program by getting an expensive oc to calm the masses. If so, they grossly underestimated what a horrible hire walters was and that the players and fans will leave in large numbers. He needs fired today. Bobo needs to talk to the players and what recruits we have left and give everyone a sense that purdue is committed to winning. I honestly feel bobo should have been let go during the season and wslters at the bye but something needs done with urgency now.

Unforgivable.

Yup. Money isn't the problem. It's a weak excuse. Money will be a problem with you only have 20,000 people show up for home games.
As I said earlier, iu committing $72M to their HC did Purdue a favor.

Walters says he can turn things around!

Purdue would be smart to call his bluff about his claim that he knows how to turn things around! Purdue should see if he agrees to have his contract reworked! He gets one more year at his current rate, and if the program does not improve he is fired and does not get the remainder of his contract as severance! If it improves gets a contract extension and a raise. I doubt very much he would agree, to those terms, but at least Purdue would know if he is just giving them a line of BS ori he is serious!
