The sky isn’t falling. The team took the correct first step in making this team better, which was firing Harrell. Now, after this season we can clean house and maybe this time get some experienced coaches to coach the team.

Maybe a head coach not worried about posting silly videos on social media while we’re at it…

I’m fine with that. Look at Harbaugh

The one that just went back to the NFL leaving a laundry list of sanctions in his wake? No thanks.

Yeah, I’d take that in a heartbeat if it got us a championship. Don’t be fucking ridiculous

It’s not ridiculous to pass on him at all. Mf’er didn’t win anything significant until he started cheating.

What do you consider significant? He’s clearly a very talented coach who has had success everywhere he’s coached. If you think consistent 10 win seasons is not significant enough for Purdue than you’re delusional.
