PURDUE RUMORS & GOSSIP
Big Ten Breakdown: Purdue Boilermakers Full Preview
Purdue head coach Darrell Hazell's first year in West Lafayette yielded decidedly unimpressive results. The Boilers went 1-11 overall, were winless in conference, and ranked 121st in terms of both national scoring offense and scoring offense. The defense was only minimally better, ranking 113th in scoring defense and 116th in total defense.It is evident that Hazell is taking...

Isaac Haas Shops at Big & Tall Stores
The attached photo caused some ripples on the tweetermachine over the weekend, as Purdue fans noted that yes, AJ Hammons is indeed in this photo and no, AJ isn’t sitting on a stool or something. Isaac Haas is just that massive.
While I would like to caution everybody to remember that Haas is going to be a freshman and we all know how polished incoming freshman usually are, particularly...

Purdue Elects To Drop Football; Ross-Ade To Be Torn Down Immediately
In a move many Purdue fans find themselves apathetic about, the university has elected to drop football as a varsity sport effective immediately. The move caught many by surprise.
“It’s a tough blow,” said sophomore QB Danny Etling. “It seems especially contradictory to the ‘One Brick Higher’ mantra around here.”
Coach Hazell was more philosophical.
“Any time you...

Purdue Turning The “P” On Its Football Helmet Into A Mosaic Of Fan Photos

Wednesday afternoon, the school unveiled a new campaign to get supporters to sign up for a “VIP card” before the season begins. How?

No, really.

No. 108 Purdue Boilermakers season preview
It was a year of sorrow in West Lafayette as the Boilermakers failed to win a single Big Ten Conference game. The lone victory of the season came against Indiana State and first year head coach Darrell Hazell was surely thinking about the glory days of 2012 when he led Kent State to the a MAC Championship appearance and a trip to the GoDaddy.com Bowl. The Purdue offense failed...

Do the Purdue Boilermakers have any NCAA Tournament hopes?
The Purdue Boilermakers (13-6, 3-3 in the Big Ten) NCAA Tournament boat is not sunk yet. However, it took on massive water Tuesday night at Northwestern in a game that barely legally still qualified as college basketball. That double overtime loss at NU was as pleasant to look at as a Kristen Schaal (“Daily Show” correspondent, “30 Rock” the evil, psycho NBC page) pictorial...

Purdue is having trouble spelling on their scoreboard
Purdue is known for being a really good educational institution. Whoever let this guy make the scoreboard hopefully isn’t a Purdue Boilermaker. They misspelled the word “wheels.” The scoreboard reads “Thank you Purdue Boilermakers Whels Club” which is probably not what they meant. Purdue is taking on the Iowa Hawkeyes today. Hopefully they football better […]

And once again, we examine yet another opponent (Visited 1 times, 1 visits today)The post Cornhusker Preview...

Purdue Boilermakers fans make awful rap video
These Purdue Boilermakers fans/students worked together to create this truly terrible rap video about their school. I don’t know about you guys, but this video deters me from wanting to go there more than it makes me wish I could go there. The original got taken down, so the one here may not sound as good, but it gets the point across. This video is the type of video that...
