Names to consider for our next football coach?

The 2023 purdue assistant pool was 5.5m (would have been 4.6 under brohm) and up from 3.64 in 2022. Indiana was 5.86 this year. We still have to pay harrells $1m salary next year but if they fire Walters he only gets $250k. Are we just going to continue to throw good money to save bad money. Aren’t we better off just paying $8.5m (took off Harrell savings) over 3 years.
No! Are you crazy?

We are only $20million in NIL and a team full of players willing to ignore the coaches (Walters) and coach themselves to 6-6 next year!

We’re going to have to offer 2-3 year contracts to get AVERAGE assistant coaches to jump on this sinking ship.

Zach Edey for THREE!

Edey looked pretty good last night. This was the first game this year I have been able to watch as I live in Tennessee and the nba has stupid black out rules. What is the deal with blacking out the fans who want to watch? I’m nowhere near Memphis so it makes zero sense to me.

Edey did a good job against Davis and actually looked really good when he got switched off in Lebron. We sure could use him this year but I’m happy to see him do so well in his dream job.
I grew up in Lafayette and never got to watch the Indy 500 until i moved to the West Coast after college because of blackouts. I ended up never going to the Indy 500, I never watched it. Instead, I went to Churchill Downs in Louisville 13 times for the Kentucky Derby. I agree blackouts are bad for marketing and will lose the opportunity to win over fans. I could have been an Indy or NASCAR fan, but I couldn't tell you the name of any driver who has won in the last 10 years.

Bobinski needs to go before Walters

Yeah. At this point anything could happen.

Not a good sign to me when it’s not like this team is a few bad luck plays away from being 4–5 or something. It’s 1-8 and it’s earned that record with ineptitude. Ineptitude only solved by a coaching staff that can instill discipline and fundamentals.

I’d lean to the side that he’s gone if he can’t win 2 of the last 3.

I don’t want to be nasty about them keeping him but if they do keep him past this year it’s clear that there’s more to it than a business or even a football decision. Don’t think there are many football or business reasons to keep the guy around.

Make an exciting coaching hire you likely renew every single season ticket you sold out last year. That helps immensely IMO to justify paying a good coach $6-7mil to come save this beached ship of a program.
That's kinda what I have been thinking. By Bobo not publicly coming to CRW's rescue, and with the comments that he made during the Black&Gold interview, I think CRW is gone with only one win.

When your TDS costs you your job

Wow....some people are just too dumb to understand.
Don't get me wrong, I think this is hilarious, but it's amazing that someone let their hated of Trump get them fired from their job.


This doesn't surprise me after reading the over the top irrational hate here.

It's clearly a mental illness that needs seen to.

Glad the person was fired as they should have been

Record Prediction / Hot Takes for 2024-2025 Season

Alright I am ready to make my predictions after going over the schedule.

27-8 overall with two wins in the BTT and three wins in the NCAA Tournament. Tied for second in the B1G with a 16-4 record.

I see the defense getting better as guys stop over helping and get better at recovering. We still don’t rebound well but it does improve. We take care of the ball to cut down on opponents attempts at the basket.

For me this season will be like the 2019 team. Guard heavy with less of a focus on the post. Good shooters and outscoring opponents will be this teams identity. I can see this team really being good from distance with enough shooters on the floor to not have off nights. Once teams start running us off the line our post/midrange game will improve, especially the small ball lineup.

Overall a nice season and one that leaves us salivating for next year with everyone back and adding DJ and Benter.

Haha. As a longtime resident of Hancock County… lets just say Jordan will likely be a better fit elsewhere…

Also I love how the party with all the antisemites accuses the other party of being Nazis.

Purdue Wide Receivers

It's not a difference of opinion. It's the BS story you gave up season tickets of 30 years because of 1 season of a coach. And now you're "less stressed" by not going to games... but you come to the internet to post about it when you rarely, if ever, did before. Hmmmm
It is a very true story......and yes i really did tell the JPC rep who called to inquire why i had not renewed that "I have no faith in the coach." I was surprised by the call as I am NOT a JPC member. I am retired now. I have much more time to point out and post the stupidity of the kool-aid gang AND I can see the writing on the wall. Purdue University is not concerned about the performance of the football team and we will be a proverbial basement dweller for years to come. I am sorry that you are unable to see that.

For the first time in the history of Democracy

Technically, it wasn't a picture of the ISIS nitwit's ass or the ass of his favorite goat, but I think Trump made the point effectively.
Yes, for clarification purposes, he didn't show him a picture of his ass or his camel's ass. He showed him a picture of his house, with the inference being, that ICBM will go up you ass, while you're sitting in your house smoking a hookah.

For the first time in the history of Democracy

Here, let me prove a point:
Can you give 2 examples, just 2, of something outlandish that Trump said (there's a long list, so take your picks) and then followed it up with actual policy that was implemented?


Here's an example: When talking to the leader of Isis a few years ago, Trump said something to the effect of "if you harm one hair on an American's head, I'll send an ICBM up your ass". He then proceeded to show the Isis leader a satellite picture of his house.
Oh wait....Trump actually did that. Sorry, bad example.

Purdue men's basketball Jacobsen surgery update

Small little health update on Daniel Jacobsen. Jacobsen had successful surgery yesterday which included inserting a metal rod in his leg. Part of the delay in X-ray and injury update in the beginning was because they weren’t sure if the rod was necessary or not. It’s similar to the injury Raleigh Burgess had in high school. Burgess obviously made a full recovery and the same is expected of Jacobsen.

Record Prediction / Hot Takes for 2024-2025 Season

thanx, but I just copied rgarlitz's, to me we are like a typical Iowa team, we can score but not much D, so that will carry us to a decent record but when we are on the road and the shots don't fall, there's not much D to fall back on to keep us in a game
We are typical Iowa team but have a much better coach 😂
