You are correct. Line was on 3 backups on the interior. Struggled to get a push. Had no issues running the ball when healthy. How many fumbles he have?

Like we’re going to take an assessment from a Loosier over what we know about the team? GTFOH.
Purdue has gotten ~10 transfers including from Auburn, South Carolina, Indiana, Kentucky……
We may be on another DE transfer from Virginia Tech.
You don’t know $hit about Purdue’s program.
Didn’t expect it to be well received. That’s life.
I’ll guarantee you that most of the “in the knows” share a similar assessment as me, that Purdue is more along the lines of a 4-5 win team next year than a 7 win team. Most publications have Purdue as the 5th or 6th team in the west next year.
And psu was ranked 8th preseason last year and started 0-5. They don't know shit.
Of course some of those guys will end up being decent players but ranking as a whole and over time tend to prove correct
That’s fair. Nobody said those guys batted 1.000. They’re right more times than they’re wrong though. Naturally you, along with others, have a higher perception of your team. I’m the same way with IU. It’s what makes a fan a fan. I’m not sold on Purdue being better next year. You are. That’s what makes these boards fun.
Come back here on November 28th and remind us how accurate your prediction was.We will congratulate you on your outstanding pre season abilities.
Why would anyone believe anything 247 writes?They list Purdue having 19 current defensive ends when the truth is seven of the guys listed are no longer with the team or were never d ends.
IU will get smoked by Purdue next year. Probably about every team but two that they play.
IU was up 18 in the third quarter of that game and lost interest. Let Purdue back in the game. Same as you guys say Ohio State did vs IU last year.
Thanks, thought 6am was too early. Any PU fans know where he is going, cause I have no clue and I’m leaning PU. Anyways, Good Luck on your season, and can’t wait until the Bucket Game!
Good luck to you too.
Have no clue on who he is leaning towards. Usually 247Sports starts posting crystal ball picks the night before the announcement, but they have been pretty quiet with him.
I don’t post much, but I think some of his social media stuff is throwing off the fanbases. And his recruitment is super tight, which I’m sure some of you probably knew. I’m starting to it’s Purdue a little bit due to the connections, but I have no clue factually. It wouldn’t surprise me if he commits to PU or IU(well, since I’m biased. The quiet is indeed odd too, we shall find out tomorrow.
Sure. As soon as you and the rest of the iu people admit your obsession of us and your need of our validation of your program.

There is no reasoning with iu fans. They ignore facts and logic and think their hyperbole about their program is actually what happened. They are the next Alabama after all.
Barring anything crazy at the last second, this should break our way per a source.
I like this message, therefore it must be true
IU’s defense is much better as well and they’re recruiting that side pretty good right now. I looked back to last year and Purdue wasn’t as bad as I remembered but they do need a bounce back year
Agreed. I've been pretty vocal with 6 wins. Maybe 7. And that would be a great step to the following year.
Having a good season has helped with recruiting in general. They bring a lot back so I expect the defense to be good again then hopefully reload and never take a step back
Ya. Purdue has new coaches. Might start slow. Iu has a bunch of new coaches. No change. Funny how that works. It seems like every reason that hurts Purdue or helps others when doing rankings applies to Purdue or others as well, but is ignored.
IU has two new coaches of merit. Don't get it twisted though, IU is still going to run its standard 4-2-5. It's Tom Allen's defense with a new name running it. Nothing is changing. Purdue is on its third DC in three years who all run different systems. Not apples to apples.
This system should actually be comparable to Holts. Are you saying purdues coaches aren't of merit? Only two former head coaches, one who literally built a program, and a successful DL coach coming from Texas to run the defense.
It’s Allen’s defense with a lot of talent coming back plus I like the transfers coming in so their D could be even better this year than last. I actually expect IU to blow Iowa out game 1.
That's not at all what I said. IU is only replacing two coaches of merit, they aren't revamping their entire staff. Purdue had a ton of overhaul this offseason. IU's system isn't changing at all. Big difference.
