Pretty sure Illinois fans are a lot happier with Walters’ performance at Purdue than Purdue fans

In all seriousness, give me this life over life of scrambling to get to 6-6 in a HM.

You need to be able to recruit. Period. We're already bottom half/quartile

It will be a long, winding, painful journey through the jungle. Will take a couple years minimum.

This. And, more concerning is that we had their effective staff and didn't recruit as well

UofIL6

Agreed. Specifically seeing how well he’s recruiting seems like a missed opportunity

Selling hope and PT is a thing. Look no further than Ron Zook's first full year in CU.

I don’t care that CPatt left. He wasnt doing anything for us.

CPatt has way less experience and was hired exclusively to land his HS players who were all overrate

100% truth: No idea JJ said any of this.

JJ been down on Ward since they had Laughery in and he missed a pass block

October 13, 2023, 16:02:30
But besides that, Thad Ward has what, like 15 more years of experience than CPatt and just won a B12

Weren’t people just bitching at Patterson that we weren’t getting anyone out of STL recently

Yeah, these don't seem like CPatt recruits. It's Walters and Harrell that seem to be killing it*

ASU is in full rebuild mode and didn't have 2 high4*/5* kids in their pocket.
