Oregon at Purdue: MASTER DISCUSSION THREAD

Smoked? You don’t know that.

We are also playing the #2 team in the country. My expectation is to play as hard and as well as possible on both sides of the ball.

Do t ever expect a win but do expect competitiveness where we can and should be. Haven’t seen that in 18 games so far with this coach!

Stark contrast to Brohm where we definitely expected to have a shot in games like this!
Again, who will be the coach next year and how many games will they win. You know after the hire I’m going to get you on record right? Do you like the hire, how many wins. Over and over and over… just hammering those two questions

Good players Purdue has recruited, developed and retained by class

So Brohm or the next coach shouldnt try and upgrade the roster?

2023 was a 4 win team talent wise (it was better)

Why won’t you answer those questions?
Upgrade the roster? By going back in time and getting more good players in the older recruiting classes? Or with the IU approach and the money they don’t have?

Good players Purdue has recruited, developed and retained by class

No, you’re an idiot so you miss the part where I said he’s not ready. He definitely made it worse. So you have your accountability Wyatt Earp, and yet brohm still left behind a mess that would have had a lot of coaches who are much better than Walters stuck in the mud.

We could hire one of these much better coaches for next fall. His two seniors who can play will be Omonode and Klare.

Joe Jefferson - eh
Zion Steptoe - lol
Jimmy Liston - may be something by then
Jordan Buchanan - yawn
Joe Strickland - nothing
Curtis Deville - nope
Kentrell makes - I got $20 for you if you can even find this guy lol
Malachi preciado - nada
Andre oben - wrong oben
Vince carpenter - don’t think so
JP Deeter - 34 snaps for Arizona state this year .. Brohm quit
Roman Pitre - 28 snaps for Arizona state this year
Terence Thomas - zzz
Charlie kenrich - zilch
Cross Watson -
Nic Scourton - great talent
Domanick moon
Brady Allen
Julio Macias

So you’ve got two guys who can play, a first round pick who transferred, a couple p4 transfers who barely play.. hell the 4th best player in the class might Be Jimmy Liston?

What coach is supposed to come here and win with that man? Let’s agree that Walters is the worst ever. Okay he’s gone.. you’re gonna expect stuff from Chris creighton with that? Really?
Some folks struggle with the idea that more than one thing can be true. That a coach can not be ready, and that the talent level can be lowered and that you need money in the age of NIL.

Proud of the team

I’ve been proud of of Purdue football for over 50 years. I own and wear Purdue shirts and ties. I own Purdue flags and coasters. I own a Purdue stuffed bear and a Purdue plush football. I eat at Bruno’s.

I’m also proud of the PACKERS,Brewers and Bucks for the past 50 years through the good times and the bad.

However, unlike some people, I don’t feel the need to brag about my loyalty. And I’m a realistic person rather than a homer. It makes me happy when they win, although I rarely expect it or predict it.

Win or lose, I will still be proud of the Boilermakers! Something we forget, not all Boilermakers are football players! Some are engineers, some are pharmacists. Some are nurses. Some are educators. Those who play in the band are Boilermakers!

I will always be a BOILERMAKER! And I’m very proud of my school and all that it entails and all of the people from Purdue.

I never really liked the BOILER UP cheer or the frat parties! But no matter the score on Saturday, I will still go to church on Sunday. And be proud of this team.

I learned growing up there is more in life than winning football games! There are no trophies on my walls! I own two coats that are 50 years old . They both still fit. One is from Philmont. The other is my full dress tuxedo from being a part of the Purdue Varsity Glee Club. I still know the words to the Purdue hymn and can still sing it! I can still recite the Purdue mathematics cheer. I also still have my Purdue y Tomahawk and pot hat.

I have many memories from Purdue! Some of those memories include Purdue football.

Is Walters any better or worse than Agassi? I’m not sure. I do know I met my future wife at a Purdue football game and I treated her to a shake after the game.
" I don’t feel the need to brag about my loyalty..."
....and yet here you are, bragging about your "loyalty" 🤔

Any chance Furst has a breakout year?

I haven’t seen much support for this from anyone on these boards but personally I could see Painter plugging him in with TKR as a possible starter to begin the season.

I know this will be a long shot as most people see Berg and Danielson as better prospects to man the five when TKR is at the four. However I know Painter is going to want some experience there as the season begins and who better to fill that role than Furst?

Playing backup to Edey limited Calebs minutes last year and to be honest he looked weak and uninspiring during the time he did play. Perhaps getting more minutes is the key to him breaking out?
I hope so. It would be great for everyone.

What happens to our program, if Walters does not end up getting let go this year?

Even though I don't see how Purdue could not let Walters go after this season, because we are still going to be lucky to win 2 games, if we are that lucky. We have games where it looks like certain players are going through the motions in some games over the last 2 years. Purdue could still balk at the $9 buyout. They might say that we sold out almost every home game this year. That would obviously change next year.

If he stays, what happens to this program? Are we set back 2, 3, 4 years? Also, who are going to have to play next year in a tougher conference each year now? The best players like Klare are going to be big targets of other programs, like Nic Scourton was, and we are not going to get into a bidding war for players. We have lost almost all of our best recruits in this recruiting class, and I don't see any of them returning. Recruits are going to know that Walters could be gone at any time. Are we going to have a team worth of transfers that no one else wants?
He is definitely gone...hope to get a good coach that can bring his whole staff and some of his players. And God willing actually can judge decent talent from the portal. And the young guys stick around to be developed properly. Nothing that Walters has been able to do...period!
