Wasn't Hope the lowest paid

Wasn't Hope the lowest paid coach in the conference? If Purdue wants to compete, they're going to have to do better than that.

WOOT!!!! FINALLY!!!
WOOT!!!! FINALLY!!!
This is the news I have been waiting for since Hope took over for Tiller.
However, I doubt Burke opens the purse strings. He is a penny pinching douche.

When Roundtree decided to commit to Michigan, was it Danny Hoke who called Rich Rod a snake oil salesman?

No, it was Tiller.

It's been a lot. Its been a roller coaster that for some reason seemed like it would never get good. But you know what? We kept fighting. It's like that old saying goes, "Those Who Stay Will Be Champions." -David Molk

B1G or SEC?
B1G or SEC?
Interesting contrast for coaching candidates between SEC (Tenn, Ken, Ark, Aub) openings and Purdue.
Do they rate the job in B1G as better given a weaker set of competition & slower hook, or prefer SEC for the resources/talent/challenge? UK and Pur have more similarities than the other 3.
Folks here in SEC territory think Urban went north b/c he couldn't beat top tier in win-at-all-cost SEC and roster was declining (of course they tend to add "and a jilted coed").
The # of openings is growing fast so candidates might wait altogether. Fascinating carousel.

Maybe Chuck Martin, the OC at ND

He was pretty damn good at Grand Valley State before ND. When would a better time to leave ND than when you're "on top". Right now is the best ND will get.

I don't know about him.

I don't know about him. Isn't Kelly an offensive guy? If so, it's hard to tell how much of this is him (not to mention the fact that their O hasn't been all that good anyway).

If they think that there is a guy out there who can make them much better than this is a good move, but otherwise you have a middle-of-the-road program suffering through middle-of-the-road seasons. Recruiting will never be great at Purdue, and unless you can catch lightning in a bottle like Tiller and catch the conference off-guard offensively, I have a hard time seeing the next guy being much better.

After he was such an a-hole to Richrod, I was thoroughly enjoying us beating Purdue down under Danny Hope's leadership and now it will just be some poor guy instead of Danny Hope which will make it much less enjoyable

Normally I wouldn't celebrate
Normally I wouldn't celebrate
Normally I wouldn't celebrate a man losing his job, but after the way this asshat acted at the end of the '09 game and his incessant negative recruiting against Rich Rod, I'll make an exception. Good riddance, you piece of shit.
