Time in the offensive system and familiarity are something that has value for your C. If there are any other weak links on the OL, most of his positives go away as he lacks the mass/agility to really cover up major issues with the IOL. Say what you want, he does at least consistently get the snap off and in the QB's hands. After watching the Oregon game yesterday, that is a skill that probably shouldn't be taken for granted.

1 hour ago1 hr 42 minutes ago, Dbeasy said:FWIW, someone on one of the UT boards (can’t find the link) mentioned they think Flood was saved by the high portal needs at OL, which is a bit counter-intuitive. They were concerned that if they replaced him, then getting enough OL out of the portal might have been more difficult, or at least more uncertain.Surly: "Flood to be replaced when portal closes."

1 hour ago1 hr Purdue has won zero games in the big10 in the past two years. It is safe to say that a full roster reboot would be reasonable. They were a bit more competitive this year under Barry Odom than last year under Ryan Walters.In 2024/2025, Purdue lost the following starters to the portal:TE Max Klare -> tOSUS Dillon Thieneman -> Oregon (All American)DT Cole Brevard -> TexasOL DJ Wingfield -> USCOL Mahamme Moussa -> LouisvilleDE Will Heldt -> ClemsonDT Jeffrey M'ba -> SMUDB Nyland Green -> ASUP Keelan Crimmins -> IlliniosNot saying the above is a murderers row, but having Klare, Thieneman, and Brevard likely results in 1-2 additional wins.With the cut-paste above, I was surprised to see that someone pays for Purdue's rivals site.Edited to add: Purdue had 54 new transfers-in this year. Most in NCAA. I suspect we'll see serious turnover again this year. To my knowledge there is no giant money-whipper behind the scenes and legit NIL opportunities in West Lafayette are modest at best. If Purdue becomes competitive again, some opportunities will surface in Indy... Edited 1 hour ago1 hr by boilerhorn

I would think Arch had some strong feelings on this.You'd kinda have to think as roomies and ostensible bffs they talked about it. If Arch had thoughts about it, I'd imagine the staff heard them. But that's about it.

That % isn't that great.On a related note, watching that Ole Miss kicker last night was amazing. That dude had 3 kicks that would've been good from 65-70. What a weapon.

Celebrating 50 yarders is done at the nfl level and getting there at the high cfb level.

Given Texas does not play Kentucky next year and Purdue does not play Northwestern, I'd kind of prefer Stroh go to one of our competitors. At least we'd know where to send Kanu - on every play.

1 hour ago1 hr Aggies are the least self aware people on the planet. "Why would Coleman rather play for Arch than Reed? Just because Arch is the face of college football and his last name is Manning and he's going to be the preseason Heisman favorite and then probably the first pick in the draft... I just don't get it."

1 hour ago1 hr NashTalksTexas on X pointed out some interesting stats re: Coleman.Coleman had 1 fewer drop than Wingo on 5 fewer catchable balls. So pretty similar rate.Coleman had lower YAC and yards per route run.But Coleman significantly more air yards.Lines up with what CTJ has been saying about Coleman not being some drastic improvement. Idk how they compare last year.

Idk how they compare last year.The drops, sure, but for YAC and yards per route run it honestly can't be overstated how shitty Arnold was. Even when Arch was struggling early in the season Wingo was getting vastly superior qb play.
