Stretch Candidates
This is the list of coaches, in the BS Braintrust's opinion, that are unbelievably unrealistic to expect at Purdue (no matter what you hear on the interwebs). Though these are all "stretch" candidates, noteworthy absences include guys like...*ahem* Tom Herman, for example. We included stretches such as Les Miles (currently unemployed, perhaps looking for a reclamation project) and Kevin Sumlin (Purdue guy, actually coached at Purdue in our lifetimes) because you can find a universe in which them being Purdue’s coach actually makes sense. We didn’t include guys like Herman because he’s as likely to coach Purdue as Nick Saban. (Herman, by the way, has been pay-bumped to $3M at Houston, is 18-1 as a HC and will probably be coaching Texas next year and making $6-7M.)

Kevin Sumlin ain't coming to Purdue in 2016. But we had to write about him.
The interwebs have been buzzing about Les Miles to Purdue. Could it happen? J Money has thoughts.
It's only a matter of time before Texas moves on (to Tom Herman), and Charlie Strong has a history of success with midwest programs. Allow J Money to be your guide.
