After moving to 1-0 on the season Coach Hazell is looking to do something that he hasn’t done in his time at Purdue; win back to back games. Man, that’s a depressing thing to type. Like, really depressing. Should he want to finally do that he will have to defeat a Cincinnati team that trounced him in his very first game as Purdue head coach. Hazell stepped to the mic today. Let’s see what he had to say shall we?
Coach’s opening statement:
As you look at our first week against Eastern Kentucky, I thought our guys played extremely hard, and really a good barometer to measure that is, you know, Dick Vermeil, the old Eagles football coach always used to tell -- you can tell the toughness of your team on how they cover kicks, and I thought we did a really good job of covering kickoffs and punts, which was really good to start off the season that way.
