Last time I looked the AD was responsible for generating revenue, and all sports. The last time I looked a University President was to establish academic integrity and generate revenue. Their #1 priority is NOT to build a winning football team at the expense of other academic and athletic priorities
You people need to get it into your head that the world does not revolve around Purdue football. The world and Purdue Univerity are doing just fine without a winning football team.
Our golf and baseball team are doing well. The women’s volleyball team is awesome. Our diving team had several Olympic divers. The track team has improved. The men’s basketball team went to the final 4. The big 10 network has provided increased revenues. All of this success, and you want to fire the AD? BOBO has done an awesome job! The football team sucks but still plays to sold out crowds. What other college can say the same?
As for our university president, I highly doubt football is her #1 priority. She doesn’t bow down to the football team. Rather they should bow down to her. She’s the one who helped negotiate the big 10 network deal, not any football coach. Brohm didn’t negotiate that deal, our AD and President did.
It’s time you people opened your eyes and realized what the purpose of a president and AD are. And that the rest of Purduecand the world doesn’t revolve around or bow down to Purdue football.
The significance of Purdue football and its fans is very minuscule when compared to the overall purpose of this university.
So go buy yourself a PBR and start crying in it. Biitch all you want! Complain and argue all you want. Saban is not the President of Purdue University. Our President is concerned about research and academics. Football at Purdue is an extracurricular activity, not a core essential!
