Let’s not fault only the one wayward receiver for his boundless optimism that cost a sure touchdown or the unqualified staff for its continually bad coaching, because the problems are institutional. And though the athletics director surely would have say over excessive and misleading artwork within his foremost facility, just as he does on employing the coaches who bring and mentor the players, the buck doesn’t stop with Bobo and his circus. Blame reaches all the way up to the board who put their trust in the wrong places, in each case, ensuring Purdue football of finishing last in the league that Purdue founded, exactly as the Big Ten media had said it would. Everyone hang heads tonight. Everyone Mung Chiang tonight.
