I guess the one he is at and currently has ranked #12 in the country despite not having a quarterback might... Purdue wants to win... so did Louisville... guys get second chances.. right or wrong.

In most instances, I would whole heartedly agree. However, as the old saying goes, "You are who you are." Sadly, I believe that is the case with Bo.

So this team is not currently reaping the fact Bo and his staff did a nice job recruiting skilled position players... heck...Collins Valentine and Gregory (sort of) and host of others are in the NFL... (say what you want about their personalities, work ethic last year and year before)....keep in mind this is not 1996...

Armstrong (the football player, not neccessarily the QB) Westerkamp, Carter, Gerry, Banderas, Newby x 2, Kalu, Williams, Farmer... these are pretty darn good football players that were brought to Nebraska by Pelini and his staff... certainly players with talent that would be major, major upgrades for Purdue...

We all know about the LB situation when Bo was fired... and the depth on the D line was depleted as well (thanks to early draft entry) but cupbourd was not exactly bare... we are top 10 in the country right now (whether anyone wants to admit that)

Just wondering if you give Callahan the same credit for recruiting the core of Pelini's two best teams ('09, '10)? Honest question.
 



Damn! Ten pages before I get off my combine? I would love to have Bo back coaching in Purdo!

By that metric, wouldn't Bo's assistants then get credit for the current players that are performing well?

If that's the case, then so be it. Who of Bo's assistants had the reputation of being a great recruiter? Wasn't Blake considered a great recruiter? I was just looking to clarify if Callahan himself was great recruiter, or was it actually Blake.

Yes it would be.
I think the heads of many here would explode. There seems to be a lot of comments already similar to jilted ex-lovers.

And a lot of comments similar to carrying a torch for the defensive guru. Can't defend him quickly or passionately enough. LOL.

That's a good question. I think Garrison, Papuchis, and Warren were decent. Kaz seemed to do alright, but someone there was having a hard time with evaluating character. None of them were even in the same stratosphere as John Blake.
