FlightAware Link for Purdue Airport

LAF Purdue University Airport (LAF/KLAF) - FlightAware

Purdue University, Lafayette, IN (LAF/KLAF) flight tracking (arrivals, departures, en route, and scheduled flights) and airport status.

www.flightaware.com

The Purdue airport is usually pretty busy, but interesting at looking at some of the further distance comings and goings.....

Incoming this morning/early afternoon:

Jet from Fort Wayne
Jet from San Antonio, TX
Jet from DC area
Jet from Lancaster, PA
Jet from New Jersey (close to the Rutgers area)

Some of these line up with either areas close to some names that have been bantered around or close to larger schools.

I don't have a FlightAware account, so can't really go back in history to see the last couple of days, so who knows what else might be out there. I'm not seeing the Purdue jet coming and going from the list....many of these are from a couple of rent-a-jet companies.

Unfollowing after this made us all think Shane Beamer was coming to Purdue 2 years ago.

Man, Beamer would have been a helluva hire away from SC. Love the way his teams play.

Ah, the flight tracker...

It's become a Purdue coaching search tradition.

They do it with Santa Claus also. Of course, Santa Claus pans out.

Tradition definitely continues....

Yesterday, Monday, and Sunday, incoming from Provo Utah and also from Raleigh-Durham, Dayton, Little Rock, Dekalb, Carlsbad, Stillwater, and Nebraska.....

Ok, whichever one of you techie flight tracker guys is doing this, keep posting it up. It's kind of fun and interesting to speculate.

Stillwater, maybe Gundy is looking for a change of scenery, Carlsbad ( Mendenhall ? )

Maybe Alan Stanwyk from Provo ?

Pretty neat, but if you’re aware of this the University is aware of you being aware of this.

Think of the reverse psy-ops moves they could be pulling:
* picking someone up from a third-party airport nowhere near their origination point.
* flying dummy flights to places they want real candidates or just the public to believe they might be traveling to for a head football coach interview.
* or none of the above, and maybe somebody just paid me to put this out there so y’all wouldn’t take it as seriously.

Hmmm

Could Raleigh-Durham be Dave Clawson from Wake Forest? He was a trendy name just a couple years ago. Last two years have been thinner, though.

Purdue could presumably throw more resources his way. Maybe he's looking for a fresh start.

Mack Brown coming out of retirement? [Kidding]

We’re all just looking at a random rock groups tour destinations and don’t even know it. Sneaky sneaky.

Lancaster, PA - Brandon Kirsch ( tic)

Actually, I was just going to post to ignore the Lancaster, PA listing. I have figured out what that one is and I highly doubt it has anything to do with the athletic department.

The others I kind of hand picked for a number of reasons I believe that they could be associated with the on-going search.

Clawson probably wouldn't blow many people away, but his run of success at Wake Forest from 2016-2022 appears to be comparable to what Brohm did at Purdue.

I'm not saying he's at the top of my list, but he has shown he can sustain success at a place where sustaining success isn't easy. He could probably bring at least a few B1G contributors from Wake, and he can start tomorrow.

Maybe Alan Stanwyk from Provo ?

Bravo, Mr. Fletcher!

Hey Guys, it is all ball bearings now days.
