Bucket Game: Each Team One Game Removed From A Perfect Season

[Purdue80]

Unfortunately, our Boilermakers possess the wrong type of near-perfect season.
I am just ready to move on from football and from this A.D.
Try as he might, the body of work for Bobinski in terms of identifying and recruiting great coaching talent when filling openings is poor at best. I really have little confidence that he can a) be accountable and accept responsibility for his failure, b) make what should be an easy decision to fire the football coach that he recruited when every indication is that it is the right thing to do for everyone involved, or c) resign immediately so that a committee can do the job that he apparently cannot and hire a stellar and proven head coach and talented new athletic director.
It is just so depressing. Purdue has a stellar academic and character reputation. We do a wonderful job of developing leaders on the academic side of the house. Money should be no object in terms of hiring the right athletic department leadership and football coaching staff, and properly compensating players in all sports under the expected House settlement and NIL.
The problem is the scarcity mindset that must be purged with a reset that recognizes the new college athletics landscape.

Purdue should never hire anyone without several years of head coaching experience. Purdue should have fired bobinski already and then fired walters during the bye. Unrelated but major props to the leaders on this team. They could have packed it in by now but gave themselves a shot to win last night after being down. Moving forward, i hope we fight next week and make it a game. Bobo needs to go immediatedly after. At this point i dont think walters will be let go and they will say it wouldnt be fair to the next ad to make a football hire without his input. By the time a replacement for bobo is found it will be too late to find a new coach until after next year.

I think we could possibly flip the model and fire both Bobinski and Walters, and give the new football coach a say in hiring the new A.D.

I think President Chiang has blinders on. It wasn’t that long ago that he made a post on social media about Bobinski being the best AD in America.
We need to stop pretending and accept the brutal truth of where our athletic program is. Our best sports are those whose teams are led by coaches who were already in place before Bobinski’s arrival. That says a lot!
I believe in judging by results. Results under Bobinski’s watch for those programs where he has had direct influence are miserable.

Wolegib would probably do a better job than Bobinski.

Of course Painter was here, but he hired Brohm, which was a very good hire. Otherwise, what sports are you talking about?
