Other than getting the no-brainer Brohm hire right, which he ruined by following up with Walters, what has he done besides riding some legacy coaches like Painter and Shondell to some success?

And this new thing about him threatening students for chanting about Walters is really bad. In the same ballpark as the Nancy Cross email about donors. My suggestion to the students would be to chant "Fire Bobinski" instead as I don't believe the AD was included on the list of people the students can't express their disappointment in.

And even if he does fire Walters eventually, is he the guy we really want hiring the new coach? The same guy who oversaw......or should have.....the Walters hire?

Fire Bobinski first.

I can’t bet against my Boilers although I have some doubts tonight. Anyway, I played over Nelson 11.5, over Sears 19.5, over Fletcher 13.5, I’ve been hot on the player props, those are my picks. Let’s go Purdue, had a buddy tell me to come over for the Tyson/Paul fight, told him I’ll see him after the Purdue game.

There are a lot of fingers being pointed at Walters for losing. I’m beginning to believe it’s not Walters but rather his assistant coaches that need to be replaced.

Look at recruiting. Usually it is the assistant coach that does the bulk of recruiting. Look at Iowa. Their offensive line coach was the main reason they recruited so many great offensive linemen. Look at Bobby Bowden and Joe Paterno. They didn’t recruit anybody. Their assistants did.

Look at strength, conditioning and development. Purdue has been terrible at this for the past 2 decades. Purdue simply doesn’t develop any talent it recruits. Look at WR Moore and George K. Moore’s best season was his freshman year, before Purdue tried to develop him . George K came to Purdue with talent. How much did he elevate his game?

Look at game calling. Our play calling on offense is terrible as are our schemes. Our blocking schemes are terrible. Our defensive schemes are terrible. Is that the fault of the head coach or his coordinators?

I look at Purdue and then I look at Nebraska. Nebraska has been terrible since it joined the Big 10. Why? Because its coaches employed a style of football that never matched the type of player that was a typical Nebraska recruit. Their recruiting base is big slow guys meant for run blocking. They were never meant to be a flashy passing attack. The Florida style doesn’t work in Nebraska.

I look at Lane Kiffin and Monty Kiffin. Who is the better coach? It’s Monty! And he’s basically a super guru assistant coach. Tony Dungy was an awesome assistant coach.

Walters hired a bunch of experienced assistants. Their resumes were good. But their schemes are just not working at Purdue.

My suggestions? Rather than forking out more money for the head coach position, Purdue needs to spend more money and bring in some of the top assistants. They could improve recruiting, better player development and better schemes!

The real problem is not the head coach. It’s the total lack of development of our players! We are not elevating anybody’s game to a higher level.

Look at Card. This is his last year. He was better at Texas than he has been this year. I don’t blame Walters for his regression! I blame our assistant coaches.

I can relate well to track athletes. Usually it’s the head coach that accepts the glory and the blame. But it is the assistant coaches that recruit the players and develop them to do their personal best. And when they do, it’s that assistant coach they thank when they reach that goal.

The head coach builds staff. It’s the staff that builds the team.

Don’t see a thread out here yet

but don't get too cocky.
I told my wife at halftime we were lucky we were still in the game and not down 12 or so. They missed a LOT of shots, (which was an extension of their other games, so..) and could have been kicking our tails handily. Sears and their 3 guy missed a lot of open shots.
Fabulous coming out and showed they should a very good team 20 games from now.
I would NOT say that makes us a top 10 team now.
I think we'll be up and down in big games as we find our path.
But helluva performance with most everyone contributing.
I wasn't sure they had it in them this early in the season.
Trey showed me some inner dog I hadn't seen.

Purdue’s top-ranked opponent, execution and mental errors pave way for ninth-straight defeat.

“That ain't a great combination”

Anyone know the record for most consecutive losses in Purdue football? Any chance we break that soon?

Not big enough
Can't block.
No speed at key positions
Can't run routes
Two much better than average QB's, both would be starting somewhere else.
Can't tackle
Can't figure it out
Not strong enough to open holes on the line
Not smart enough coaching staff to resign on their own.

If Bo doesn't dismiss Walters of his HC duty before seasons end, Bo needs to be shown the door to the outside world.

Spend the money now and get one of these guys and let them bring players with them.

Didn't watch a second of last week's game. And not because I had to go to a wedding or take my kid to ballgame or anything like that. Just was convinced there was literal no chance we would even be competitive so saw no point in watching it. Hasn't felt like that since Hazell. Not planning to watch our last games either. Fully convinced we will lose them by 30+.

Good showing for the B1G yesterday as Purdue takes down #2 Alabama and Wisconsin puts up over 100 against #9 Arizona.

Should be another fun season in conference as it appears to be a wide open year in the league.

Seems the procrastinators knew a little something when they picked Purdue to win the league. It should be interesting to see who is right there with us.

Has anyone read any good articles on how this would work? I haven't seen it. Or want to theorize on how it might happen?

Clearly 62% poll to deport so support is out there even though I am in the 38%

Wonder if Trump will be more selective in mass deportation now that Latinos are trending voting up for the Rs??

Another Purdue football game, another home blow out loss.

Pretty good for someone who was an “Edey merchant” last year :

Just thought it should be mentioned

Dickert vs Mendenhall . 2 of the 3 names I like to see as our next coach

Just f----- wonderful.

While I agree the chant should not be officially done by the Paint Crew, I certainly understand the frustration.

Maybe it is time to take paper bags (Please Gen Z, DO NOT USE PLASTIC) into the football games (aka Cleveland Browns fans)

Last home game of the year for the Purdue Boilermakers - game is televised on CBS, starting approximately 3:30 pm (Eastern time). Hope the Boilers can give the fans in Ross-Ade some things to cheer, this afternoon. We shall see.

Boiler up, my friends.....

Our guys seem to play just above the level of the competition. If we're playing a good team, we play better. When we play a bad team...I don't know if it's coach tinkering or just a team mentality...but we seem to play down to the level of competition. Or maybe the competition is trying to play up to our level.

This is the TKR I said would be 2nd team All B10. Footwork back. Midrange back. Patient and worked to get his.

Now be consistent and not just 2nd team All B10....but folks that was flat out an All American we saw tonight

Big time

You say the rest.

Kid named Henry from Fishers, IN just absolutely DRILLED one for $800,000 (half to hurricane relief & he splits the rest with another person). I wonder how he’d feel about coming back and kicking for us..?
