I am a Sumlin fan but I think we have a better one!
Brohm was essentially still playing catch-up with the 2018 class as he hasn't even been on the job for a full year yet and I think you are seeing his ability to recruit with the 2019 class getting a great head start with Karlaftis and potentially Kiser being a heavy lean to Purdue as well. I wouldn't be surprised if Kiser ends up committing after his season ends on Friday (all speculation and no inside info here).
I don't buy the Brees making Tiller look good considering Tiller's best team was led by Orton in 2004 and not for the play that shall not be spoken of would have led to a potential championship and a spot in the NC game. Also the Dicken led first team won 9 games as well.
You can believe whatever you want, just calling out speculation before it spreads as fact.
Crazy that winning records are no longer successful in A&M’s book.
I am a firm believer, and one day I might have data to support it, that most programs are better off sticking with a coach who is proven able to consistently win 7-10 games, hoping one day with continuity and a few breaks he might break through to elite status, than you are rolling the dice and starting over. But fans of A&M, Tennessee, Notre Dame don't want to see themselves as second tier, even though that's what they have been for the past 2 decades or more.
Yours is speculation as well! Just because somebody denies something doesn't mean it didn't happen. There are a lot of denials made in divorce courts and a lot of lies and denials told by athletes, coaches and politicians! You're speculating MBob told the truth! I read media reports that said otherwise! By saying I'm speculating, you're calling seveveral reporters liars! I'm speculating they told the truth! Neither one of us has proof ! So we're both speculating! We just have differing viewpoints and whom we choose to believe! Much like do you believe Moore who denies everything or his accusers! There are people who believe Moore simply because he denies it! We both know What MBob said. You choose to believe him and I don't !
The same was true for Purdue. In Morgan's introduction of Hazell, Morgan said the move was made to elevate our program not to start a rebuild! Was Morgan lying, or did he truly believe Hazell was going to take Hope's team and make it better immediately? Purdue would have been better off keeping Hope one more year!
Why stop there? We would have been better off giving Tiller a few more years and supporting his program financially.
Ok I also hated the idea of hiring Hope a year early! And making him an assistant! My thought was if we were bad, I didn't want to promote hope to be a head coach! And we ended being bad that year and also stuck with Hope! My post on that is in the archives somewhere!
I guess it pays to get your name in the news as possibly be interested in another job! His agent floats his name as being available! The school gets nervous and gives him an extension and Fleck can say he never talked to anybody and deny everything! And you wonder why I don't believe him! Fleck was probably using Purdue to get an extension from western mich, but then a better offer came along!
I never said they did! Read my words! I said MBob and Fleck were lying if they said they never talked to each other! Or Fleck can say he never talked, but his agent did! If you hire somebody to represent you, he's acting in your behalf
I agree!!! Iowa Fans were never the same after Frye went to Ann Arbor and beat MU at their place....Iowa was our door mat for years prior to CHF. If schools had not been so successful at using Fryes age against him in recruiting....he would have been at IOWA longer.
So if we're speculating that Brohm could leave PU, why can't Fleck leave Minny? Just saying.
Wonder if Nebraska misses Solich after going 9-3 years ago. They haven't recovered since.
