Green was fleeing from Georgia following an arrest, the warning signs were there and CRW was “star” struck
Nope. We are all equally made by God. But life is boring always taking the easy route.
Yes we must always take the hardest possible route or life is boring right? I can't tell if you believe what you are selling or just trolling. It's silliness either way.
Yes challenges make for rewarding outcomes. Beating on a high-school team doesn't mean squat. And it won't after this year for the playoff committee
Have you seen the Lindsey kid from Auburn?
He runs really well but his size and frame make him look like he is going to grow into a tackle. 6' 3" 295
Your thoughts?
Listen I'm not paying for 6 to take my family to watch nobody's. I'd gladly pay a grand for ND or a big name school.
If I said it once, I've said it 1000 times, we gotta schedule it so Boilergold88 will bring his brood to the games.
Auburn buddy told me about him. Said they really liked him until he showed up. A bit lazy from what they say. Hoping a change or scenery makes that moot.
Listen it's okay to have different opinions. Some right some wrong. Usually you can tell which one is wrong by who slings personal attacks.
Would be nice to not look at these portal kids like damaged goods but after Walters and his lack of success with them I’d like to see them be an asset for us again like they were for Brohm.
Yeah like insinuating you're just different from someone else huh? Nothing worse than the person who does subtle little I'm better than you nonsense and then pretends they're actually humble.
Everyone is different but we are all equal. I try to be humble I'm not better than anyone else. Clearly I'm no life and on a meaningless forums.
I agree we shouldn't schedule Alabama week 1-3 but we should also not schedule Snider High-school either.
If you want easy games let's just drop to the MAC and call it a day.
Jesus someone should teach you how to speak in a language other than hyperbole.
Right? Someone suggests changing one game one time to a more winnable game and now we're going to be playing high school teams forever.
They schedule so far in advance most of these were Brohm. How about we just play ball and not worry about opponent.
You're missing the point, which is, for where Purdue is as a program, playing ND serves no purpose.
Tell me, what good does it do the program to go to South Bend and lose 49-3?
As opposed to say, replacing ND with say...NC State, K-State, or even a Colorado. Those are still name programs, but you at least have a much better shot at a W.
Play ND again in 2-3 years when you've rebuilt the program.
No guarantee you rebuild 2 years 20 years 200 years. Just play quality opponents.
Playing a national televised game is great for both schools. In state and God forbid we become good again it will bring in ratings.
Hmmmm.....I thought this thread was on portal updates.
Sorry for derailing the thread. I guess I'd rather play ND than take an L to teams like Toledo 2010, Northern Illinois 2013, Eastern Muchigan in 2018. Just to count games I personally went to. I'm sure we lost plenty of more games that when you win it doesn't mean much. When you lose you look like idiots.
Not sure why everyone wants to emulate little brother.
See my post above. Let's just lose to Rice a few more times on ESPN The Ocho. That will gain traction.
Saw it. If we are “competitive” again someday, sure. But right now, no. Having Walter’s teams on national tv last year getting beaten by record numbers in Ross Ade did nothing to promote the program in a positive light. I would have rather our games being played on the tv in the last remaining Blockbuster in America.
Stop playing ND early in the season, push them to rivalry weekend in November. That way if we win it spoils their season (see Northern Illinois), and let’s be honest we’ve owned IU in the bucket series that it’s expected we beat them every year - push them to week 3 and move on.
Playing notre dame offers us nothing other than a guaranteed national embarrassment. Take them off the schedule.
