We here at Hammer & Rails (namely me, as I am the fearless tinpot Dictator for Life with a mouth much bigger than my mind) are often quick to bash Morgan Burke. The Big Ten's longest serving athletic director has been at Purdue since 1993 has taken a ton of heat. No lights at Ross-Ade Stadium? Blame Burke! Matt Painter might bolt to Missouri? Blame Burke! They are charging to park for football games in the parking garages now? Blame Burke!
Yes, the venerable Morgan Burke has been blamed for everything here from the football team sucking to, and I may be exaggerating here, smuggling in that gift from the Greeks to Troy.
