Is anybody else hearing this les miles to Purdue?

I hope not as well! Miles is a Midwestern boy and would recruit very well at Purdue. Miles only goes to Purdue if he is given a sufficient budget to get the high quality assistants he wants. That is very dangerous.

I am still skeptical, however. Just a few weeks ago Purdue fans were saying a deal for Pittsburgh coach Pat Narduzzi was all but done.

If Miles goes Purdue I predict they are better than us after 1 recruiting session.

No doubt about it. Hope these rumors are false.

The B1G West is wide open after Wisconsin. In a year Miles would have Purdue right there behind Nebraska and Iowa, at the level of NW. They'd probably better than us, Maryland, Rutgers and possibly MSU in the East after a year. Miles is that good.

There's no way Miles goes to Purdue. Not only would they not pony up his budget for assistants and recruiting, they don't have near the facilities Miles is used to. No way Mitch Daniels signs off on that much of a spending increase.

With the Texas job likely coming open at the end of the season I can't imagine Purdue getting him

I thought this as well. I can hope. Texas is looking at Houston's coach though.

I think the Houston coach goes to Texas.

Good point. I dont think they can spend that much $$$

Brett McMurphy of ESPN reporting that current interim coach Ed Orgeron has been named head coach at LSU.

This makes too much sense.

Herman to Texas was only waiting on the season to end. It was going to happen ever since Strong lost a couple games.

[WayneFleekHoosier]

Still hoping Miles doesn't end up at PU. I thought there was zero chance to start. Now idk.

With Herman leaving Texas, hopefully Miles goes to Houston and runs that for a few years then goes back to a big school(e.g., USC, ND) when they become available.

Pick 6 for O$U. Speight was given no chance to succeed in his own end zone.
