To bad but rather lose him then a player obviously;).

My guess is they will have a student do it just like they had Austin Render take over baseball from Greg Murray last couple years. Maybe they give Austin both sports now or possibly another media student.

They all do a solid job and I support whoever calls the game.

Traitor Sharon decided to call it quits a year early. I'm guessing the allegations of a "hostile" environment had something to do with it. Katie Gearlds takes over. I'm kinda disappointed/worried -- to tell the truth. Teri Moren owned our little sisters to the north recently. Gearlds will bring a different energy to the job.

Versyp should of been fired years ago from an objective standpoint. She drove a once elite program into the ground and it will be much harder for them to recover now.

She was clearly a slimy person leaving IU after a yr and the allegations at Purdue and they were negligent to let her ruin their top program. Very glad Moren has seized on that for now and IU and PU have basically switched places for the moment. 

With that said I have never heard of a program holding on to a mediocre coach in a once elite program that long. The stereotype about Purdue being dumb applies here to their athletic department. Should of happened a long time ago.

Dang Gearlds is my coworker’s niece. Always thought she was a great kid/person. Gonna be harder to wish them the worst.
