Coach Nowlin

No doubt there pal!!! I thought in all honestly, when they moved the walk on Center Garvin in at Center, the OL started to come together and you saw RUN game improve: I thought Nebraska, NW and IU were good running games towards the end of the year. I think the goal for PU run game should be anything over 4 yards a carry and that will continue to loosen up the defense

UT Martin has the inside track

Boilers have 4 guys, 3 stars as seen here verbal for Boilers: However, only one of that list that I could see getting on the field 1st is Zionsville's Hartwig: The rest will need to develop it seems. https://247sports.com/player/gus-hartwig-46041714/ https://247sports.com/player/jared-bycznski-46052072/ https://247sports.com/player/josh-kaltenberger-46080403/ https://247sports.com/player/nalin-fox-46085614/ Trying to snag these 2 guys yet in this cycle: QB: https://247sports.com/player/malik-hornsby-46037405/ Word on the street is between Ducks and Boilers OT: https://247sports.com/player/courtland-ford-87847/ Word on the street is between Rowing Boats or Boilers Here is a link to everyone they have extended offers to: https://247sports.com/college/purdue/Season/2020-Football/Offers/ Got his much leaner teammate from 2019 class in Tippman up in land of Bucky.

I really think it will be hard to defend Purdue next year: The question will be can they get enough stops. You saw a walk on come in and light up teams ( I thought he looked better than Plummer from simple aspect that he got the ball out on time with some zip but does have mobility concerns) without their All American Slot WR. You add Rondale on the same formation with David Bell, capable TE (Durham, 2 RS Frosh they will have) and Combo of Milton Wright, Amad Anderson, TJ Shelfield, ole reliable Jackson Anthrop, newest 4 star WR incoming in Malik Carr and a capable run game with King Duruane, Horvath, incoming RB Murphy. That is really tough for defenses to figure out how to stop. Maybe they do turn into a B12 type team as DT said, win them 56-48 baby!!!

I was doing an English lesson here in the lab and wanted to show the difference of poor grammar and how it changes the conversation!!

Love to see PU get this big guy

Please GID GODS, don't let us crash again!! Daddy wants some Chuck Wagon!! Good Times!! Nebraska: Toss Up: Purdue won last time they visited Lincoln Memphis: Take the Boilers at Home Air Force: Take the Boilers at Home Boston College: Take the Boilers on the Road Rutger: Scarlet Knights beat them last time they played, though I take Boilers at Home Illinois: Snag that Cannon back Michigan: Tough one: Maybe out score them?? Doubtful NW: DUBS baby Minnesota: Why should lose? Major Blizzard game, I will concede to Gophers in the Blizzard Wisconsin: Boilers finally get them at Home Iowa: Purdue owns Iowa!!! IU: WIN BABY!!! I got me 9 wins baby!!! Maybe 11 if they get Nebraska and Minny!! LETS GO !!! In all honestly, it really does change projections week to week. Health in sports always a concern in any sport, any level.

And if the Boilers get to 8 + wins next year??? I am sure it will be crickets....... Time will tell

So those in Purdue program should stop doing anything to bridge that gap and leapfrog Wisconsin or anyone else their way and just accept that Wisconsin should win every year?? I say along with the current Regime at Purdue from Prez on down, why not Purdue? Until its on the dotted line, by Verbals only, here is Lovie right now: https://247sports.com/Season/2020-Football/CompositeTeamRankings/?Conference=Big-Ten Yup, right behind IU and in front of Rutgers......

Size differential against TCU, Wisconsin, IU, etc was evident, NO DOUBT. Depth is next big step in my opinion for my Boilers, absolutely, so when a defensive Studs, Neal and Bailey go down, they can fill in with adequate players. I am hopeful that comes to fruition starting in 2020. time will tell I will state again: It is GREAT for our state that IU finally got a pulse and a guy that fanbase (will they ever sell out that statdium?) can get behind as an IU guy!!

I do not need instant gratification, I am not looking for "likes" 6-6 would be a disappointment, never state otherwise Not making excuses, speaking in facts, you continually say that PU ignored OL and DL: I have actually paid attention ALL THE TIME, and I know they have NOT in fact ignored it, they attempted, didn't land JUCO guys, it happens, all the time in recruiting.

Both as a Fan and also "realist" I do think Purdue is able to bounce back and absolutely will be in the top 20-30 rankings in the foreseeable future. The man behind the scenes is the reason why. https://www.cleveland.com/osu/2018/04/ohio_state_football_losing_key.html https://purduesports.com/sports/football/roster/coaches/eron-hodges/450 No doubt with money comes criticism, rightfully so, and IU will feel the same in the future as well Not going for the 2 and win and the Nevada debacle absolutely was tough this past year. Flip those and 6-6 again. I think it was impressive the fight in the PU team this past year with the unheard of amount of Freshman and SOPH on their 2 deep competing. I think you can openly talk about b10 and national playoff hopes while on the rebuild

Does Tom Allen getting paid now for Trying then?? Or results?? Confused on the difference? The extension last year was to keep Louisville from making him HC, I know you like to ride the different waves of your "takes" instead of sticking to them and riding them out, you like to just flip flop for what you perceive as "material" instead of having some fortitude to stick by your own words. Classic DT

reload with same caliber of offensive skill kids? Is that part of the equation? Early Departures are good thing, it means you have recruited top end talent that has produced to earn themselves a NFL paycheck by leaving early. I find it interesting that now that IU has actually did SOMETHING this past year, all of a sudden, folks think Brohm and PU was just a flash in a pan. Funny stuff there Goodness: 1 Bowl game and 8 wins and all of a sudden IU fan above is throwing all sorts of darts at this Purdue fan. No doubt 4-8 was disappointing, cookie didn't crumble Boilers way this year, for a variety of reasons, losing 3 studs probably the biggest, but I Digress... Listen I get the excitement, I honestly do. Purdue was able to participate in these vaunted extra practices the last 2 years as well. In this message board, I just politely asked about IU non Conference schedule and have asked if the extension (I am happy for Coach Allen) and what lots of folks are talking as "investing" in Football will translate to actually wanting to aim bigger, such as Big 10 Championships and College Football Playoffs? I know that is what has been coming out of West Lafayette's camp, but from the response above, because you play in B10 East, you do not want to schedule any other teams that could actually help your program's trajectory into National recognized, you just want to be happy going for 8-9 wins. Seems like you are selling IU short on expectations. This is for sure: IU and PU rivalry has finally come back to full force and that is a GREAT thing for our state. Just would like to see IU get more serious on their future schedules if their goals are what they should be, which isn't becoming Bowl Eligible by beating Ball St, Eastern Illinois and UCONN, though Cincy series starting in 2021 is good for IU.

When can we see IU actually doing something to their soft NON conference slate? Purdue NON conference from 2017 to 2024: 11 Power 5 teams and ND : Mizzou, Boston College, L'ville, Syracuse, Virginia Tech, Oregon St, TCU, Vandy, and Notre Dame Purdue: 17' Louisville, Ohio, Mizzou (2 P5 teams) 18' Eastern Michigan, Mizzou, BC (2 P5 teams) 19' Nevada, TCU, Vandy (2 P5 teams) 20' Memphis Air Force BC (1 P5 team and 1 consistent winner, though losing Norvel hurts) 21' Oregon St, ND, Uconn ( 1 P5 and 1 Indy team that seems to carry some nationwide clout) 22' Indiana St, Uconn, FAU (Finally in 22' a Non conference schedule to rival IU's) 23' Fresno St, VT, Syracuse (2 P5 teams) 24' Indiana St, ND, Oregon St (1 P5 1 national brand team in ND) IU NON conference From 2017-2024: 4 Power 5 teams : Virginia 2 years, Louisville 2 years: NO P5 teams in 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022. IU: 17' Virginia, FIU, Georgia Southern, Charleston Southern (1 P5) 18' FIU, Ball ST, Virginia (1 P5) 19' Ball State, Eastern Illinois, Ball St. (O P5) 20' Western Kentucky, Ball St UCONN (0 P5) 21' Idaho, Cincy, WKU (0 P5) 22' Idaho, Cincy, WKU (0 P5) 23' Indiana St, Akron, Louisville (1 P5) 24' FIU, Charlotte, L'ville (1 P5) So when can we expect IU Football to start scheduling some actual SEC/B12/ACC/P12 teams???? When does IU start scheduling Power 5 conference teams in the pre season? See above. and See below They have backed up that initial class with currently another top 30 class as it stands on this day: https://247sports.com/college/purdue/Season/2020-Football/Commits/ dropped a few spots when 4 star kid out of Texas, flipped to Colorado So what happens? Purdue Continues to recruit high skill and work on getting the high end OL to jump on board. They continue to offer all the best OL in and around the midwest and afar, so its not from lack of trying. Can't force them to come: I liked the commitment of Gus Hartwig, IN State kid, right up the road, going to nation wide all star game. I think we as rational college football fans understand that OL is far more difficult to bring in a 17-19 year old kid and start as a true freshman in the Big10, doesn't happen often, need time to develop. I really liked what I saw out of Cam Craig, I was 3 rows from the field when PU OL Coach, benched the LG when he missed the assignment vs IU on a big 4th down play early in the game, the True Freshman went in and did really well, PU saved many of those OL guys from the 2019 class to RS them and started playing them in spurts last 4 games to retain their Red Shirt.

Only when NCAA violations and stunning losses take place

I want to say about what Spegal had, but without service academy: https://247sports.com/player/alexander-horvath-91422/

This is what I have to say about Charlie Spegal "Heavy is the Head that wears the Crown"

not going to lie, a bit surprised that Wright beat out both Kyle Adams and QB at Cathedral

Taking the same path as Zander Horvath did at Purdue, I love it, wish him well

WEIGHT ROOM CULTURE Bottom Line

Once again, Indianapolis Colts is the best NFL franchise when it relates to how they treat, recognize Indiana High School Football across the state. Cheers to Coach Moriarity and Coach Hart : Well earned
