Butch Jones offered Purdue job

Nice little wrench in Cincys planning for this Saturday.

This is bs. There needs to be a no interview policy until after bowling. He's going to take the Job.

Purdue is not a move up.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Purdue is career suicide.

 

[businesslawyer]

This is a state taxpayer funded institution pulling a coach away from his team during the season. The lack of morality of universitites to cplease its fanbase truly degrades this nation.

Butch Jones would be crazy to take the Purdue job. Sure it's Big 10, but bottom of Big 10. He should stay at Cincinnati until a much better offer comes around.

I wish P was offered the Purdue job

He ain't going to Purdue. That is ludicrous. He is already at a better job than Purdue.

Hmmm coach for a real conference or a mid major ... That's like saying a coach won't leave Buffalo for wake forest...

Jones will get better offers, if not this year, then in the future. Last 2 Cinci coaches left for Michigan St and Notre Dame. Purdue is a bottom tier Big 10 job, so, yes, he is better off staying at Cinci.

I was waiting to see how long it would take someone to post this. LOL

No. It's a suicide job. Coaching Purdue is like coaching Kentucky football. Doesn't matter the conference, it's the kind of job that kills promising coaches.

Cincy is a decent job now. Butch should know better not to leave for anything less than a perennial top program in fertile recruiting grounds. Purdue has been irrelevant for so so long.

Tiller was decent there. The right coach will implement his system, recruit his type of players and do well anywhere.
