OOF!  Yes, PUke, things can really get worse.

Purdue running back Devin Mockobee will miss the rest of his final college season after undergoing ankle surgery late last week, coach Barry Odom announced Monday.

Mockobee finishes his career as the fourth-leading rusher in Boilermakers history, with 2,987 yards, trailing Mike Alstott, Kory Sheets and Otis Armstrong, a College Football Hall of Famer. Mockobee also ranks in the school’s top 10 in carries with 630 and career 100-yard games with nine.

Sounds like Hugh just got fired or is about to today.

Not a surprise.  And as far as coaches go, not really a guy I’m gonna feel bad for given his history and style.

Update: It’s official.

How many teams in the SEC expect to be playing for championships and to be in the playoffs every year?  I think Vandy and IU doing very good seams to make a lot of traditional strong football schools a little embarrassed.

As much as I loathe little brother, that’s a shame. Mockobee’s a man. Walked on and hung through multiple crappy coaches. Nothing but respect for that kid.
