If you would have told me that we would hold the cowpiles to 13 points, I would have said that we would have won by 3 TDs going away. It is funny in that Maxwell's fur colors looks likes the Saints colors! He has a Saints sweater, but you have to be care putting on an off to avoid being bitten. I usually put some peanut butter in my hand and let him eat it while my wife puts it on and off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He reminds me of a wolverine at times. He can bite you in a heartbeat if you aren't careful while playing with him! He must have been reading this thread.

TitanTiger 20,499 Posted December 1, 2018 Author Share Posted December 1, 2018 Here's the thing that sucks: when I thought maybe there was interest from Stoops, getting rid of Gus excited me. Now? I guess it makes sense for him to move on, but I'm less than excited about the folks we'd be looking at. I don't see Brohm leaving Purdue after the things he's said for why he turned L'ville down. It looks like another up and comer would be in store for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus has run his course on the Plains. But I do believe that we could wind up with a good HC even at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear you but I'd still like to spin the wheel to see if we can land something better. As impressive as ADAG is & the quality of talent we have overall I bet we can land a quality HC even if it's not a splash name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just thinking if the cheapest option for us were to happen (Gus taking another job) then that frees up a ton of cash we would have spent on a buyout. Then we could put that in the pile that we throw at Stoops or a Stoops level coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be the case, I just thought that most contracts had in it that if another school hired you then they had to pay the school you’re leaving buyout money. As ridiculous as Gus’ contract is, it wouldn’t surprise me if that wasn’t in his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
