Since EsPN just released a few sourced stories about Pagano and Grigson's futures within the Colts organization, I'm inspired to talk about my thoughts.

Boilers Grind Out Win in Madison
The more things change, the more they stay the same. Bo Ryan is no longer the head coach at Wisconsin...and it shows.

Hammons, Packed House, Cookie Crisis: Christmas in Mackey
The honorable B. Dowd pointed out that I can actually post longer thoughts here - in fact, it's how I got the job in the first place, by request from you, the readers - and threatened me with death by square donut* if I do not do so immediately. Here then is my Journey Into Mackey, from the drive up to the drive home.
Purdue’s Jetsons-like Future Fictional Football Stadium
Recently, there’s been some excitement about the renovations/expansion of Purdue’s football facilities. However, what is reality and what is complete and utter fantasy are quickly becoming conflated like a Brian Williams story.
Boilers Knock Down the 'Dores
It looked like the Boilers were flat-out hungover in the wake of the disappointment in Indianapolis on Saturday night as Purdue simply couldn't score early on. In fact, at the 15:30 mark, Purdue had just two points...in the Butler game, Purdue had 12. But it's not how you start, it's how you finish, and the Forces of Good did that quite well tonight.
Malone Promoted by Hazell
After a few weeks of silence, Purdue TE coach, the well-traveled and qualified Terry Malone will man the post of OC for 2016.
Poll Dancing: BSCR Drops a bit following loss
Not much is consistent in life- But I always know that I'm extremely handsome, I gotta pay my taxes, Santa comes each year and Purdue loses in my home city.
Boilers Play Role of Washington Generals in Crossroads Yet Again
You knew they weren’t going undefeated. You knew they were going to lose eventually. And you probably “hoped” it would be against a good opponent, rather than the kind of mindfreeze we’ve seen early in the last few seasons.
Just Stop About Kevin Sumlin Coming to Purdue
Sometimes when an insane rumor gets some semblance of legs, it’s interesting to trace back where it came from.
PURDUE BASKETBALL BEAT #34: Top Ten Again
The Boilermakers enter the top 10 for the first time in four years, and Mike and Aneesh are pretty stoked.
Almost Everybody Likes Boilers...What now?
What's it all mean? It means Purdue is good. At 11-0, they're only the 7th Purdue team in the history of the program to start this fast...and to start all games with a margin of 12+ points in each game, this early season run is unprecedented for the program. But it's about to get a bit tougher.
IT'S NOT A TRAP! Purdue Remains Perfect After 95-64 Win Over Youngstown State
It should be no surprise that Purdue extended it’s unblemished record to 11 wins with a 95-64 victory over the ferocious Penguins of Youngstown State.
Football Success Can Be Defined In Ways You’re Not Smart Enough to Understand
I get a little tired of every remark Morgan Burke and others within Purdue athletics makes being a shot at fans and alums who simply want to see a non-disappointing football product once in a while.
WBB Devils Incarnate Word, 95-27
San Antonio is home to many things: the Alamo, the River Walk, a couple of neat bowl wins, the Spurs ... and the University of the Incarnate Word.
Winning is Fun: Boilermakers Too Much For Guy Named Howard
As though Purdue wasn’t already going to be the favorite tonight, Howard was playing their fifth game in ten days and had endless injuries.
Computers Love Boilers...People really like them
After the RayDay-less Boilers beat two solid teams last week (one on the road, one at home), there was no change in the important human polls. BUT after the same team handled a mediocre (at best) IUPUI team at home last night, the Sagarin computer equation thought highly of Purdue...the highest, to be precise. Purdue is #1 in all of the college basketball universe this morning, according to sagarin's ranking system.
