***Official Purdue Game Discussion Thread***

Maybe Riley can get a come from behind victory. That would go against the Callahan 2.0 comparison, as Callahan was infamously 0-17 when trailing at half. Riley is currently 0-4 when trailing at half. And of course, he also has a loss to Wisconsin after blowing a first half lead.

 
Screw waiting till the end of the season. This entire staff should be fired TODAY, so that we can start our coaching search.

Oh, that's right, Eichorst is in charge. Never mind.
MR can consult with Golden
Sorry this is just dumb. You can't fire a coaching staff after 1 year.
Why? Because we might lose to purdue and go 3-9?
So if the next coach is bad should we fire him after 1 year also. Let's not even fire him after 1 year. Let's just give him a 1 year contract.
No, let's get a coach that brings the running game back to lincoln, and someone that can teach them how to at least line up on defense. A scheme that doesn't have us ranked dead last vs. the pass. There are HS coaches that could lead us to a win over flipping PURDUE.
No one could be this bad. Lesson learned: don't hire a career .500 coach and expect to win championships.

 
Walk-on QB who's barely played.......

Of course you should call 18 passes and 19 runs
Have you seen our run blocking ???
Have you watched this game? The few times we've done a simple outside run with Newby he's broken it for big gains. It's when we try to run it up the middle that we have trouble. WHICH IS THE CASE EVERY GAME. These coaches still haven't figured out that the outside run is our best friend.

No you hire a f'ing competent coach, and he hires a competent staff. Then you don’t have to fire them after a year.
 
I realize the staff has been hired 10 months ago, but how much actual time have these guys had to rebuild these players fundamentals? Second question. Are we sure these players are good enough to be fundamentally sound, technically sufficient football players?
1. They've had enough time to not regress this bad. There's countless examples.

2. Yes, and every analyst in the country seemed to think so.

The players have responsibilities, but it's ultimately on the coaches. If they can't get this team to perform, it's still their fault. That's how leadership works. It was Bo's fault we got blown out, and it's this staff's fault we're a bad football team right now. We don't have elite talent, but Purdue is like Kansas bad. No excuse.
Let's be fair.

Kansas has more conference wins the last three years.

Exactly. We hired a "loser" for all intensive purposes. Why does/did anyone expect him to be the guy. It boggles the mind.
