Guess we're facing an Interim Coach this Week

[huskerfan92]

Purdue fires the head coach

 

[lo country]

Looks like we could only save him for a year............

 

[Mierin]

Not sure if that makes the game harder or easier.

 

[Kernal]

I hope the interim coach is a "team in disarray" variety of coach and not a "rally around the guy we all like and win him the permanent job" variety.

9-33, ouch.

 

[Kernal]

Looks like it's the receivers coach who will take over as interim. As a side, Ross Els (formerly NU's LB coach under Pelini) is Purdue's defensive coordinator this year.

Keep the injured players out.

Play clean football.

Get ready for Wisconsin.

I'd rather win against Purdue at take the inevitable beating that is coming via the W.

That defense in the first half against tOSU was nasty.

9-33, ouch.

Wow...9-33

So, I think they need to call Ken Niamulato (Navy), Les Miles and P.J. Fleck. All would be great hires for them.

I came here specificlly to mention Les Miles to Purdue. His style fits the Big Ten.

Let's be honest, any hire for Purdue is likely to be an improvement. I don't view them as being in the market for the top 3 available coaches.....could be wrong.

I just hope the team doesn't rally around the interim coach and play way over their heads this week. People are talking about voluntarily resting players, taking it easy, etc. Uh hello, McFly, Purdue beat us last year and we haven't exactly taken anybody out behind the woodshed.

Huh?

 

[MichiganDad3]

We need to send someone to Purdue to talk up Fo Fitty as their next head coach

 

[Swiv3D]

I'm hearing les miles (unsurprisingly) is on their shortlist

 

[Bigred_inSD]

Purdue could and probably will be fired up. With that said we will also be fired up after last year. We won't beat them as badly as some want and expect, but, we will win this game and not have to worry about the final few series
