It's been quite the ride since I was over here last -- both of our football seasons probably didn't end up quite as we expected but it goes like that from time to time.

I saw that the Orange hired Dale Williams as their new OL coach and just wanted to voice my opinion on him since he was the OL coach at Purdue for a number of years.

HE SUCKS. I am so sorry that you have to go through Dale Williams as your OL coach.

Baba you were right. Props to you.

Hope you guys are able to find your way out of your funk soon.

By the way, how good is your OL coach?

It's amazing how new things always have a luster. "Oh, well that was in the past. He'll be GREAT here!" It's fairly mind-boggling how bad coaches always find a job.

Same for bad executives and administrators.

You were entirely right and I appreciate the warning lol. This board has a tendency to think any coach that’s hired is Vince Lombardi until proven otherwise and then when proven otherwise they’re the worst coach that’s ever existed. No middle ground.

Hopefully he won't be around next season.

Hey guy - thanks for the heads up. It’s been mentioned more than a couple times here since … the one part that didn’t seem to translate to our experience is the part about him affecting recruiting - I think we’ve done fairly well in that regard but maybe he doesn’t have those responsibilities here? I’m cutting and pasting from that thread —> “Dale couldn't recruit OL because the rumor was that no one wanted to play for him. That's why Purdue has had to rebuild the OL the last two years with transfers. Heck, there was so little depth last season built up that Purdue started two NAIA transfers this year.”

As people have said on other threads Williams was a Nixon pick. The most telling thing to me was that when Braum went to Louisville he hired a new Oline coach and made Williams a consultant.
