Fire Brohm

Yea. We haven't even hit tax day in 2017 and we don't have a 2018 commit yet. If that's the best you can muster then you have nothing.

Meanwhile, you have a coach that couldn't win big at one of the state's powerhouse HIGH SCHOOL programs and you think he's going to elevate a college program that hasn't won a bowl game in over a quarter century? Good luck with that!
Dude that was 15 20 years ago people evolved get better. If you truly looked at Tom Allen's resume without the IU hate you would probably admit the guys did a pretty remarkable job to make it to where he's made it
 
At least he's not an average high school coach taking over his first BCS program.
That's so dumb. At a very minimum, Allen has proven he is a hell of a defensive teacher. At a high level. He's also recruiting pretty damn well right now.

Brohm is a good coach. So is Allen.
 
That average high school coach is kicking Brohms butt right now in recruiting. Just seen our spring game and Tom Allen looks like the real deal to me. But don't take my word for it, just ask the great Jon Gruden.
Gruden's father was an assistant under Lee Corso. He lived in Bloomington when Bob Knight was starting out. What a shock he'd be positive about the Loosiers when he and his brother were made honorary coaches for the Spring Game at IU.

Tom Allen is a glorified HS coach who was a DC for 3 seasons (at most) at the FBS level. Then he brought in Grampa DeBord as OC - what is he now - 70?

Brohm has a .750 win %, won three straight bowl games, and two straight conference championships. History will show that Brohm is and will be a much better HC than Allen. Fred Glass screwed up with Wilson, panicked when he had a major scandal to deal with (after giving Wilson an extension the January before), and hired a guy with no business being the HC of any BIG program.

From where we came from, I'll gladly take back to back Bowl appearances. I was merely making a point that our high school coach is out recruiting the great Brohm so far and if our recruiting classes are mediocre then that must make Purdue's recruiting class trash.
IU hasn't had a season with a winning record since 1993! You have absolutely no place to talk smack. IU is and will continue to be the historically worst program in the BIG. Purdue is on the rise, and IU is going back to where it belongs - DFL.
 
You do realize that despite the fact that IU and Purdue were at their best and worst point, respectively, over the past 25 years, IU only managed to beat us by 2 last year.

Allen has 4 middle of the road commits. Congrats to him. Our recruiting was awful the past few years. Last year we were 14th in the Big Ten rankings. Guess who was 13th, with nearly the identical average star rating?

As for the spring game comparison...if you really feel that you can get a great read from splitting up the team and having them play with modified rules, you are a bigger idiot than your comments on here would suggest.
 
The logic here is fascinating. How exactly do you think the most successful coaches get started? At some point, they had no HC experience.

Do you know how many unsuccessful head coaches get their start as well?

We will see. I'll just say I'm glad he's not our coach. We just got rid of someone that had no business being a head coach. IMO, IU just hired one.

Injuries and a Juco quarterback who was in his first year of major college football, learning a whole new system. But I actually think the kid Ramsey is going to bet him out of the starting spot
So you're ready to put a Juco quarterback up against the leading passer in the Big 10 last year BEFORE he had Brohm as a coach? You guys barely beat us at home LAST year when we were led by an assistant coach. See ya' in Ross Ade Loosiers, the bucket comes home to roost in W Lafayette where it belongs!
 
I wouldn't heep too much praise on Blough! If we weren't losing every game by 20 -30 points, we wouldn't have felt the need to pass as much! And last year was not a particularly great year for BIG10 QBs either, so I wouldn't brag too loud!
 
Considering Blough had to run for his life every play, to lead the Big Ten in passing is incredible. I know we sucked, but our O line was like Swiss cheese! Under Brohm's tutelage I look for Blough to tear it up. Granted we will lose to the good teams 50 to 35 and I doubt we'll win more than 4 games. Watching WKU play, I think this coach is a miracle worker. To win more than 4 this year he'll have to be. But it will be exciting to watch a game again!
 
Yeah you can't tell much from a spring game other than IU is bigger, deeper and more athletic than Purdue. The talent level at IU is head and shoulders above what Purdue can put on the field. Based off watching our spring game versus Purdue spring game, I'll predict the bucket stays with us for the next four years
Yes and you dumb asses fired the guy that built your "Powerhouse" of a team. Go crawl back in your lime stone cave...
 
I heard IU was voted National Champions of Spring Football!:D
Same here. Word on the street is that Gruden was so impressed with IU`s defensive secondary that he want to invite three of them to his Gruden QB Camp. All NFL first round Wild cat QB`s. Man IU is deep in talent!!!!

Your basketball talent level was suppose to be great too....What was it again...#3 Preseason? And look where that got you...lol! You should probably wait for a couple of games to be played before you come trolling over here...

wow.

Just . . . .

Wow.

You have a no-name high school coach, going against a proven college coach. Someone who has proven he can build and re-build. And you're talkin' sh*t??

Dude.

You're a moron. And right now, I'm insulting morons.
