Since the Missouri drama, have there been any rumors about another school coming after Painter? Schools coming after Brohm is becoming an annual event. And the general thought is that as long as Purdue football is doing well, he will always be in the rumor mill.
So I am wondering why this wouldn’t be the case with Painter. They are essentially the same age, but Painter has a much stronger resume. Is it because we are believed to be more invested in basketball, and therefore competition sees us as stronger and more difficult to pry a coach away from? Is it Painter’s loyalty as an alum? Or is what Brohm has done with the football team thought to be more impressive than what Painter has done with the basketball team. Or is he getting courted but it is not made public for some reason. Thoughts?
