Rumor is that DH agreed to get rid of all but 3 coaches (RB, WR, LB coaches) for his 4th season at Purdue. I'm not sure how reliable this is but it's the best thing I've heard today about Purdue football, so, yeah.
Rumor
- Thread starter boiler_pride
- Start date
If true, I am sure Darrell will land some real top shelf replacements. He's not any better at recruiting coaches than he is at recruiting players.
New coach is needed, with his constant excuses and how he talks about the team, he seems like the type to give trophies out to all participants. Need a new team attitude
Not sure if that rumor is true or not but no way Malone at TE is gone. He was OC for multiple Michigan B1G title teams. Only coaches for sure gone are probably the coordinators.
The problem with this solution is that it takes a fair amount of time for coaches from different programs to come together and form a team. Analogy - the truly effective heart surgical teams are just that - teams. They know each other really well, they have well defined processes, and they have seen it all together as a team.
So even if Hazell finds new assistants, it will take a fair amount of time for them to gel. Much of Tiller's success was based on him bringing almost an entire coaching staff with him. They hit the ground running.
Purdue football does not have time. Thanks to Swimmer AD Burke, it is already in a very deep hole. We are becoming or already are viewed as the school that will not commit to football and cannot win. Burke has created a long term issue for Purdue that will persist while he is enjoying his generous Purdue pension in a warmer climate.
