What happened to Walter's getting canned this week? I guessing that's not happening this year and Purdont gives him another year.

Unless they really turn it around bringing him back after a 1-11 season would be a train wreck. They will lose a lot to the portal

Boiler fans are going to learn the full dark meaning of the words "not ideal". Honestly, the fans don't deserve that!

We've been there. That place sucks, and it's hard to escape from.

Walters coming back next year is 75% dependent on his ability to hold onto his current recruits and add 7-8 decent preps to show his recruiting floor is still there.


The people hanging onto the salacious story components seemed to have forgotten there are lots of dirtbag coaches in this profession, it's either an open secret or publicly known, and they're still paid multiple millions because they win. If Walters can pick up a few wins or hold onto his recruiting, he'll have a chance at 2025.

Shurmur didn't have a great record as Giants head coach, but the guy knows offense. As a rookie under him, Daniel Jones started 12 games and threw 24 TD passes. Then they fired Shurmur and he's never had more than 15, even in a full season.

Fully agree that there are dirtbag coaches, just as there are many walks of life where people are operating under less than fully moral and ethical standards. But there was just too much smoke to think anything other than if Purdue could have legally stood on terminating Walters for cause based on his (alleged, but very likely) affair with a staffer, they would have done so. See - Tucker, Mel.

Athletic departments are a business. Financial considerations play a part in their decision making, and it is pretty obvious to me that they were checking to see if they could find a "terminate for cause" loophole to save the balance on the remainder of Walters' contract.

Feels like Rhett Lashlee has been around forever but he's still quite young. Gotta imagine the SEC powers will be sniffing around.
