HC grades: Purdue gets A, IU gets C (worst P5 hire of 2016)

USA Today agrees with you. And the more I read about it, I think it's an A+, as long as Baylor let's him do his thing.
I think the biggest thing from this article is:
"He’ll take over a Purdue program that has featured 10 different starting quarterbacks since 2010 and whose last quarterback to get drafted was Curtis Painter in 2009"
That says way to much about the program under Hope and Hazell. Now, I did not research to see if this is true, but if it is, not good. You have to be stable at QB.
To defend hope a little. He never got to play with good/great QBs. His best QB was Joey elliot and our top playmaker got injured early in the season that year. The next top guy was probably Siller, then marve (kid had heart), henry, turdbush. He did pull in Applebee, who had the attributes to be a good qb. Nord couldn't figure out what to do with the offense and had 0 identity.
I think both hope and hazell's failure was an attachment to subpar offensive coordinator. Shoop should have been let go year 1. You can't win we you don't score. It was obvious that shoop motion bs wasn't connecting with our young qbs. Hazell if he had a brain would have dropped his coordinators sooner. 1 and 2 win seasons early on mean you cant fire a coordinator after year 3 and expect to even attract mediocre coordinator.

And some wonder why we sometimes struggle in recruiting. One reason is that we don't have as many fans as our competitors and another reason is that some of the fans we do have act like this.
Who was the playmaker injured during Elliot's year?
Nord was a decent coordinator. He had bad lines and was forced to run short passing games.
Oh yes these kids really care about my opinions on a 2 star dual threat quarterback who was as slow as molasses who couldn't hit a broad side of a barn. LOL get over yourself.
But even when Marve was healthy, they still insisted on playing at least two QBs.
I assure you that they care about fan support. And we already lack in quantity compared to others. People like you mean we also lack in quality.
TurdBush was the worse QB to ever wear the Gold and Black. He set a very low bar. I am as quality as it comes, because even though we still suck I am unbais and watch the team. If you want to suck and get coddle go play at a loser program. I would suggest Rice, but hell TurdBush got beat by f@cking RICE!
It's hard to say how any of these coaches will pan out in their new gigs.
I remember a lot of folks saying "Joe who?" when Purdue hired Tiller back in '96. I also remember Haze being a popular hire in '12, both with the fans and in the media.
That said, hiring Brohm certainly seems to have created a positive buzz around the program --- and that's something Purdue football desperately needs.

Yea because quality fans use degrading middle-school nicknames to address players who have been gone for 4 years.
And if you think Terbush was the worst QB we've had then you're just not very smart. Close to 60% completion percentage and 25 TDs to 14 INTs. He wasn't great but I could name a couple worse I've seen at Purdue in the last 10 years alone.
Come on, man, get over it!
1) Terbush was far from a great quarterback (the academic suspension alone makes that clear), but he was also far from the worst quarterback Purdue has had. His career stats and won/loss record are all better than Brian Fox, Matt Pike, and Rick Trefzger --- and Terbush's teams were similarly talented.
2) The man left Purdue four years ago. Whatever you have against him, it's time to let it go.
Hope's first year was actually really fun and is one of my favorites even though they missed a bowl game. If only we didn't turn the ball over so much early on.
Then he had terrible luck with injuries on a team that already lacked depth.
That offense could move the ball. Elliott had alot of INTs that cost us games early because he had never had much game experience but he learned on the job quickly and had that offense going pretty well without many interceptions by the end of the year. Still think if Elliott had more experience under his belt going into that year we'd have won 9 games.
Imagine where Purdue would be if we did win 9 games that year... SMH... So many 'if only's"
