I’ve got a confession to make: I spend an inordinate amount of time writing about Purdue sports, and I’ve only been on the Purdue campus twice. In fact, I haven’t been close to West Lafayette since I was 9-years-old, and yet here I am, 35-years-old and writing about Purdue football recruiting.
You see, Tony Schneider is one hell of a brainwasher. Born and raised in Huntingburg, Indiana, the youngest of 6 siblings, and the only Boilermaker in the entire lot. Dad worked on me early and often, taking me to see my first college football game on September 10, 1988 to watch the mighty Boilermakers take on the Washington Huskies in the season opener at Ross Ade stadium.
