And as an academics oriented guy, if somebody had $10 million in their pocket to give away, I’d rather they spent it on huricane relief than buying out a football coach!

How do you know what Purdue fans have or don't have to commit to the football program?

And yes, you can fire people when it's the right thing to do. iu basketball does it all the time.....

When will B.U. media and/or local sports media request a recorded, in-person interview or press conference with our Athletic Director? Off the top of my head, our Football program would be a good topic….

If he's not ready to fire anyone then there's nothing useful to say right now. If he is thinking about it, he's not going to say anything until he's made that decision and communicated that to the staff. At which point, the firing would speak for itself, and all he would be able to say is where are going to conduct a search.

No. I'm arguing that you don't know the facts. Which you don't.

Lol the fact is that we are near the bottom of the conference in football NIL which you agree with. The rest is you being you.

Seems to still be considering alot of schools.

So did he make any other comments about his visit and maybe thank the coaches or players?

Think these are all of his offers. I don’t think he’s probably considering all these schools though.

So you have to really upset that Trump killed the bipartisan border bill that Repubican Senator Lankford authored that would have given the president more power to control illegal border crossings. If you don't like the current immigration system changed the law. Trump had control of congress and the senate and offered no immigration policy change.

Click to expand...

You are parroting the Media and Dem talking points that are LIES! Yes, Lankford proposed the bill, but Congress screwed up what he was trying to accomplish to the extent that Lankford actually voted against the bill along with several Democrats. The bill they voted on was not only inadequate but also included a lot of pork.

Biden canceled 92 Executive Orders of Trump that were working, but it was Biden who wanted to be childish. Meanwhile, Biden and his border czar, Harris were telling the nation the border was secure. Mayorkas even lied to Congress, saying the border was secure. When the Governors of Texas and Florida sent a small percentage of immigrants to Dem-run cities, their Mayors finally complained to Biden, and he finally did something about it. He reinstated a Trump Executive Order, and the numbers plummeted. And yes, the Dems are bragging about how much more secure the border is. Are you kidding me?

He will be on a visit at Illinois to watch the game vs Purdue this weekend

I know very little about refereeing but the idea of hiring full-time BT-only refs (maybe even just the lead official for each game), paying them well, and holding them accountable seems like such an easy decision. Put a stop to the 'they can't call them all' nonsense consistently and it goes away.

If they starting calling them all the fouling would stop pretty quickly. Northwestern and Tennessee would have been out of players by half-time.

That contentment would last a season for most.
You want consistent winning seasons, you have to pay for it.

Plain and simple. Both coaches and players. You go cheap on one, you're capping yourself severely.

I would just like to have competitive games. Even if we lose I can handle those. These blowouts are absolutely ridiculous.

Between Tracy and Mostert, Purdue running backs combine for over 200 yards rushing today.

AOC came in late in the second half for Minshew, which may be an indication that he might get a chance to start next week.

They are somewhat high…Memphis fans seem to be super excited about him and understand that his role will be rebounding and setting massive screens for their best player.

We know he’s really good. But other ppl still think “he’s just tall”. Excited to see what he can do.

I mean, he's the betting favorite to win Rookie of the Year and Ja said last week that Zach will 'easily' win it. That's ridiculously high to me.

Haters are already coming out (maybe they never went away?), mostly people who have never seen him play and who definitely didn't see his combine agility stat the last two years, where he got up and down the court as well as pretty much any big.Link: Idiots who haven't actually watched him play

northside100 said:

Man, I hate to be a cynic but this just feels like the type of shit where the media loves to hype players up and then tear them down. If anyone can break that cycle Zach can, but expectations seem ridiculously high for the #9 overall pick.

You have a valid point, but it still cannot be a pleasant experience! Losing continually takes its toll on your psyche, especially when the chance of it not improving are almost assured! I'm sure many will be looking at going elsewhere!

They are the ones missing tackles, no gap discipline, dropping balls etc. Can’t clean out this bunch fast enough. Adios!

I truly appreciate your perspective. We can do both. One of the top 10-15 public universities in the USA. The $$ is there.

Hadn't thought of it but maybe. I think most of those guys go to law school, or at least they used to but Mason would likely excel there if he were inclined.

Did any of those people try to deport you for immigrating to their homeland without their permission?

Because unless you are also Native American, you should be able to grasp the irony of you not “get(ting) out of their country.” Because those European immigrants made their country far less safe and destroyed their communities, as you have said.

We need a new bill to enforce the current laws??? That's some fuzzy logic.

Great game for Tyrone! Hope this is the start of something big for him!

kind of crazy looking back how much talent we had on last years team that the guys we got on the portal have not been able to replace... tracy, burks, Sheffield, garrett miller just from the offensive skill positions

Led the nfl in rushing yards and the win!!! And I won with the crazy plan to swap him with waddle and he was the difference maker i me beating my cousin in fantasy football! Thanks Tyrone!
