Coach Nowlin

Agree. Coach Sanders is different, however, one would look at IU success vs Colorado and I would give IU the edge on the coaching hire thus far. Coach Sanders has brought attention to a dead program, but can he sustain success by turning over rosters so much??

If Nick Saban stayed at Michigan St does he win National Title? If Jim Harbaugh stays at Stanford does he in win a national title? These great coaches had to go to what is known as Blue Blood Football programs to earn that distinction. Yet Temp you downgrade Coach Cignetti for his accomplishments thus far in this conversation. Interesting to say the least

Again, you choose to make remarks about this coach because you don't like his tag lines, yet you are ok with Michigan tag line under the guise of "locker room " News Flash....... EVERY SINGLE POWER 5 and probably below literally have SOCIAL MEDIA TEAMS following around teams for their CONTENT. EVERYONE.... No such thing as behind close doors. It's literally the same. if anything, you should applaud a coach like Coach Cig who is confident enough in his system and program building based on his track record willing to put it out there, then thus far, has been able to back it up with a current 5-0 start. What defines this "talkin out his ass"? That is an opinion, which you can have, just be ready to be rebunk when your opinion doesn't carry any value. You are the one offended by this coach and his approach, not I or others, so the burden to prove anything is not on I, like I have presented before, he does not have to be YOUR cup of tea, but to call him a clown, cite he was gonna be fired by 2026 and the other tangible thing you have stated was "Schools A,B,C Suck" at a glorified pep session, the tag line GOOGLE ME, and one other one....

It was and something we haven 't seen very often in our fandom, that is for sure More to come !!!! #TrustTheProcess okay enough of that

if you want to you can understand..... I did fix 2 errors in the 45 should of been, 145, and Bing was being..... You can read and understand the post I made if you choose to. Doesn't take a teacher or a rocket scientist to do so

not dense..... and you know that 145-31 or whatever it is ......has earned the right to say what he wants and continues to have his players fighting with him, there is something to be said for that. Does he have to be your cup of tea, NOPE, but to not give him his roses thus far is just you being obtuse for the purpose of being "that guy". and that's cool too, just gonna show you the fallacy in that

Thank You for specifically answering the question And I will double down and say again, I think it's refreshing approach to things......Coach Speak is overplayed and I get that you as a coach have to stay above water on it, but again, IU football history speaks for itself, so its refreshing seeing a guy who knows how to win, is a relative unknown to the B10, and midwest as a whole and say, "GOOGLE ME" next question. do you support Coach Harbaugh and his "tag line". .... WHO HAS IT BETTER THAN US" ?? @temptation

Winners win...... Your "boy" was just as Arrogant at San Diego that he was when he was in Ann Arbor.......why does he get a pass? Oh, that's right, different set of standards for you and Michigan vs EVERYONE else, at least that would be the honest response. So you still haven't said anything specifically, so I will patiently wait Temp on what exactly he has done, or let rephrase it, How has he conducted himself SPECIFICALLY? Mr. Broad stroke brusher is too easy to say things without specific examples.

@temptation Give me specifics examples of this "clown" reference from Coach Cig in your opinion? the ONLY thing I can think of is when he stated in front of a packed house at Assembly where he was just announced to where he got all riled up and said Purdue Sucks, and so does Michigan and So does Ohio State. to me that was refreshing, setting the tone that IU will no longer be everyone's punching bag. I can appreciate that. What is the theme?? Taking poor programs and making them into winners. IU was a poor program under Tom Allen, as mentioned not replacing great assistants was a downfall, the smoke and mirrors of whatever that covid year was..... These are the FACTS for Coach Cig..(love his nickname).

We have been fortunate to have had a few players from Rensselaer get into some college coaching, one young man found himself tied in with Charlie Strong, Lville and Texas He came back to town we were talking one day, he swore up and down from his days as an Wabash All American to being in L'ville and Texas, that our staff was just as knowledgable coaching then anyone he has seen at his stops, the difference was who you know, and the fact that these guys get to work on their craft 80-100 hours a week and all that. He said Coach Strong had a good friend he Brought with him everywhere as a one the guys in the S&C program, he would just hang in the weight room all day and watch Netflix getting 6 figures....... Jason Simmons absolutely KNOWS offensive ball. that is not something that can be disputed in my opinion, as I have seen him in action, in chalk talks, etc. He played College ball at Miami OH, been around great HS programs and coaches and now working in this capacity. Rooting for my pal for selfish reasons (want Purdue not be the Purdue from last 5 weeks and all of last year) and for his own career

Thank You,

What is your record on the "Book it" or Bank it or many other proclamations?

Knew when I listened to him at IFCA clinic that he was the PERFECT fit for IU and sad he wasn't at PU. Do you still think he is a "CLOWN" @temptation Perhaps NIL commitment like UNLV QB not coming to fruition? Just speculation.

You may know a guy. 🙂 Exactly.....my dad used to tell me, Son, if your teachers or coaches are not picking on you then they don't like you.....

Wishing Coach Simmons the best in this new role, quite the rocket ship he is on since leaving BD 2 years ago, rooting for my buddy to right the ship here next few weeks !!!

Would you support that happening today in our HS? why or why not? You seemed to have turned out okay !!! 🙂

Brick Haley DL coach supposed to be that guy Also..... Remember Matt Mattox up and left 3 weeks after he was hired......hmmmmmmmm. "person reasons" that's how the Walters era began

Athletic Directors are not sole decision makers in these type of hires, they SHOULD be the LEAD voice, yes, but in the current landscape of Professional Football played on college campuses, you have Board of Directors, you have DONORS, who also are involved in these things. but again led by the Athletic Department. Being an AD is like an NFL GM, you are not going to bat 1000 in the draft or with staff hires, not realistic. FOR ME, Bobinski gets a pass on this, especially if he ends up getting rid of Walters after year 2. They went outside the box and decided to try to navigate these shark invested waters with a very young 1st time HC and equally young staff, there are things that have transpired that would indicate that this young staff was not ready for these moments both on and off the field. Now, if Bobinski fails a 2nd time landing a coach/staff at Purdue then yes, the target should shift to the athletic department. Making 1 bad Football hire shouldn't cost a job of the Athletic Director, and I've said before, Walters message and attitude is fine with me, the lack of discipline is very concerning, and the BIGGEST question is this: Is Purdue Football serious about competing like the other professional college football teams with their NIL or is it just status quo, if its status quo, then you're going to get left in the dust.

Its been UGLY...... Firing Harrell is a good start when you're trying to save your hind quarters Bobinski is the LEAST of Purdue Football concerns.

Bummer Moore body language is what has been shown......I try not to worry to much about that stuff, some folks in media have said he is an odd duck, but also, getting paid like a super star and I think he feels like every ball should come his way, but man, lot of weapons, so he may just be frustrated with Waldren as well. Time will tell Winning solves all Also, now that Lewis has played 272 games, can we cut him now? At least he wasn't on the field for any penalties this week for the "big dog". ugh
