Tyson Helton……..

Toledo or Miami U coach, Midwest guys, know the dudes and HS coaches in the region…..they would love Purdue, take them to Harry’s and ink it!!
 
Somewhat odd that he turned us down 2 years ago but is on these early candidate lists I'm seeing. Maybe he didn't think he was ready?

EDIT: Other than this board, I dont see where he turned us down before. Similar to Brohm in a lot of respects. Comes from a coaching family. Offensive innovator. Former QB. Qbs hea coached have done very well. Defense...well if you score 70 a game, you need need much defense:)

Feels like the ship has sailed on Jason Candle at Toledo. He has been at Toledo for 10 years and his team was 7-5 this season.

I love martin at miami. Checks all the boxes and been around the block. Not that this matters or checks a box but he just looks like a purdue guy. Very tiller/keady esque.
 
Ty Helton turned us down in 2022. He hasn’t done that great the past 2 years. He probably needs us now more than we need him. I think we can do better but will need to pony up $

Starting to think more about Chip Kelly.
HC at big time programs, HC in the NFL, offensive mind, immediate name rec for the fan base and would garner national attention (not on the level of Coach Prime, but ESPN would take notice), extensive coaching network to build a staff.
He can sell players on knowing what it takes to get and play in the NFL.

Retread to the Max.

I’d argue with all the talent he has at OSU to use he’s been VERY lackluster this year. Couple that with a middling stint at UCLA where they got tired of him very recently, I’m good.

Plus, his ego would t allow him to take a non blue blood job.

Silverfield looks intriguing. Depending on buyout, current contract is thru 2028. Recruits the SE, Texas, Ark, SW.

Think we need to move away from MW ties. Improve and expand recruiting. Fewer MAC level recruits.
I'm all for getting 50% of our recruits from the south, especially the skill positions. Hit FL, GA, TX hard. I'll take the 2nd level guys that either don't make it at UF, FSU, UM, etc over kids from the MW looking at MAC or lower.
Find your OL in the MW.
