Purdue football is a complete and utter mess right now. Even the blessed days of mediocrity are long gone. Purdue has not been ranked since starting the 2007 at 5-0 and reaching No. 25 for a week. That 8-5 season is a wealth of riches now compared to the depths that Purdue is in right now. Even if you combined all the victories from the last three seasons Purdue wouldn't have enough to be bowl eligible at a dismal 5-25, 2-25 vs. FBS level teams, and 1-17 against the Big Ten.
First, we blamed Joe Tiller.
Next, we blamed Danny Hope.
