I mean, this is like saying a girl or guy has a great personality when you are trying to set up one of your friends.
You guys are going back to Danny Hope and Hazel? Was that his name?
Ya. It was rough during the Hazel era. Not sure what that has to do with this season under Walter’s.
What’s Hope and Hazel have to do with anything? They aren’t at all related to the present day. Literall nothing is the same. Once Purdue university president changed and supported sports vs took money from athletics, things changed. For the better. Not sure what weak division has to do with anything. But same is true for Nebraska.
For starters, he lost to Nebraska last year. And as you point out, Purdue is better than Nebraska the last 5 years, and yet, he still lost.
Why? Do only bad coaches lose to NU?
Thanks for waiting for me to post. you’ve had plenty of opportunities to respond to any post in this thread, but within 5 minutes of my post you single me out.
Nope.
Are you 6 years old and not able to understand simple logic?
I think the issue here is I do understand logic, and the logic you’re attempting to use isn’t quite making the point you’re trying to.
I’m going to guess Nebraska had a much better roster last year. I think Purdue started their starting center at RT and Hudson couldn’t lift his arms above his shoulders that game. Might have been starting a WR at DB as well. Full rebuild for Walter’s.
Purdue game was probably our best last year
Help me understand. If he’s a good coach, why wasn’t he able to take advantage of the gifts we gave Purdue? We turned it over 4 times. Other teams we played took advantage of our turnovers. I’m not saying anything about Rhule, you made that assumption yourself. I’m talking about all of the gifts in game that Michigan state, Wisconsin and Iowa used to their advantage. Why didn’t Purdue?
I was at that game...we left a littler early to go hit the bars and from leaving the game to getting to the bars...PU scored like twice, I think Sims fumbled for a TD?
You can't ask for facts...get the facts...that prove it...and then try to change things.
I thought that’s when Sims came in for one play and fumbled.
They scored their only points off turnovers
kong, couple of things.
My objectivity tells me when I post you attempt to troll me.
Could it be that I’m correct? Your post undermined our program.
Nothing you or I do makes this a better board than when we found it.
We won’t continue to be the litmus test. But you yourself have commented repeatedly on how bad we’ve been the last several years. If Purdue can’t beat a team that turns it over 4 times, that’s some bad coaching. I don’t understand why you can’t get this. This was a one off. You have made it into a blanket statement. That was never the intention. That’s classic Kong twisting the words of another poster to attempt to get them to bite. And unfortunately, yet again, I have.
Nobody is withholding their opinion because of me.
Your response to him reads like a literal troll of Husker fans.
I really don’t believe he wants me to change. He wants to needle me and a host of other posters. That’s the game he has played for years.
I want everyone to realize their full potential here and everywhere (we need many more big boosters).
With that in mind, and slightly off-topic, I'm about a day or so away from being finished with the spreadsheet I'm doing for the upcoming football season.
Will be very interesting to see how those historical prevailing trends hold up
Needless to say I will be playing a lot of games
In football it's always an unknown due to coaching changes, loss of a good QB, the transfer portal, how easy or demanding their schedule is, etc. My methodology follows my horseracing thought patterns in that some trainers have done the same thing for years and years and years and continue to excel in a certain category.
You were talking about how the Iowa defense sucks against good offenses. Thats clearly incorrect if you look past the final score. Don’t be lazy.
He didn’t say teams with a pulse. He said “offenses” with a pulse in reference to Iowa’s defense being overrated. When the offense throws multiple pick sixes, and literally gives the ball to the opposing offense inside the defenses 5 yard line numerous times; that’s not on the defense.
At this point, the only 2 Big 12 teams I focused on were KU and KSU, however, Baylor has some real strong negative patterns that I haven't fully researched. No doubt, teams that fail to cover can be just as good a play as those who do.
I already explained why.
Oh now you are off the Brohm train? You sucked him off a touted his recruits on this board for like 6 years and now it is his fault? Walters may be a good coach, but he probably won't ever be good at Purdue. Recruits out there aren't looking to come to Purdue. You may get a few every now and then, but far from a place big times kids want to come. Just not a football power. Basketball yes, football no.
