I wonder if this means we will see Hazell at Purdue?

Win for Purdue if you ask me.

Agreed. Although he won't get much of a raise from what Kent State pays him. ;)

I thought Purdue's HC process was very selective? Only mustached men can get the job.

Well, I think the reason that happens is because Purdue pays $hit. The poor head coaches can't even afford a razor!

i dont think hazell will leave kent state to go to purdue... he is a big time up and coming coach. he will end up at a big school soon.

I think someone at Cal needs to contact Coach Hazell

Wasn't Butch Jones offered the Purdue job?

Purdue is definitely not a step up from Cincy. It's a lateral move, at best.

Purdue probably pays better.

If I'm not mistaken Danny Hope was making $950,000. I'm not sure if that's more than or less compared to Cincy.

B1G is better than Big East by far, doesn't matter which teams.

DaiTheFlu on 1 Dec 2012 - 8:55pm #

Generally speaking, yes. But Purdue has turned into a pretty toxic job recently. They're at the bottom of the league in pay scale, although they supposedly have 4.5 million set aside for the new staff. It'd be nice to see them improve.

The B1G in general needs to pay more for coaches. I'd be nice to have some better games to watch. I hope Hazell lands somewhere good. I always root for former coaches to do well (with the exception of Bo back in the day).

DaiTheFlu on 1 Dec 2012 - 8:50pm #

Me too, although Dantonio has turned into an insufferable whiny ass. It's really hard to root for him. Also, I can't find it in myself to claim Beckman as an Ohio State product...

I read somewhere that Purdue was gonna start paying more. But I doubt it. That is such a tough place to do well at. Not a great state for recruiting. In the same state as Notre Dame. Intense competition from Ohio State and TSUN. It's tough.

Purdue has narrow it's short list down to Freddie Mercury, Rollie Fingers, Wilfred Brimley, Craig Stadler, and most chicks from Michigan.

And don't forget Sam Elliott.

@TennBuck...Maybe they can get 'Ol Sam to do a voice-over in there Coaching search. "Only YOU can prevent a Dumpster Fire (of a season)!!!" Lol
