Wow. That's a surprise fire at this time in the season. The defense, under Ross Els, hasn’t successfully addressed its biggest weaknesses: Stopping the run and getting off the field on third down. The Hawkeyes rushed for 365 yards Saturday, making it three consecutive weeks in which Purdue has allowed an opponent to rush for at least 300 yards. Illinois had 315 two weeks ago, and Maryland had 400 in the Big Ten opener. Iowa also converted its first seven third down attempts Saturday before finishing 9 of 16 on third down. In the first two Big Ten games, Purdue allowed 8-of-23 conversions. Heading into Saturday's game, it was last in the nation in third-down conversion defense.

I guess I didn't realize this either:

He can do so much better than Purdue. More than likely a present coordinator or Mid-Major head coach. Until they commit to supporting the program from her top down will be very difficult to attract top talent.

They would have to open up the coffers and really pay the big bucks! I bet it would take $5,000,000 or better
 
In Big Ten play, Purdue was 3-24 under Hazell. And, NU was one of those losses. Make up time next week.

Probably. But the announcers for the Purdoo/Iowa game mentioned that the fans expected more in year 4 from him. I remember thinking he would likely be gone soon. Interesting too how teams aren't waiting until the end of the season to make changes.
