LGWS Podcast #10: Albert Berg, Purdue’s First Football Head Coach

With the offseason in full swing, we bring back our “Let’s Get Weird, Sports” Podcast, a pod where Travis and Paul Banks (and formerly Casey) talk about random sports subjects that interest them in their spare time. Today’s LGWS pod actually has a Purdue connection, as Travis and Paul talk about Purdue’s first football coach, Albert Berg. What makes this a subject for the LGWS pod? Well, Coach Berg only coached one game at Purdue, their first ever game, which they lost; he also happened to be deaf and struggled at speaking as a result of his deafness.
