Can this guy coach? Maybe in 2026?
 
An impressive resume. Too bad he is on a team that traditionally has porous defenses.
If he had New England or Denver teams and coaches the last few years, there would be more Super Bowls to add to that resume.
 
Enjoyed seeing Drew at the final game. He got to throw a few passes to prize winners, pose with Brittany for being a big donor and lead "Shout" while visiting his old roomies and later tweeting up the Boiler-on-Boiler showdown going on in Baton Rouge.

Too bad he couldn't have seen more of his old fans at Ross-Ade, let alone some kind of acknowledgements in GBI or this forum. Of course, I keep forgetting that several of the regulars on here weren't even born yet when he played at Purdue.

I was alive, but barely.
