Purdue Insider for @purdue247 | Host of Locked on Boilermakers on @lockedonnetwork 🎙️| Austin Peay Sports Media
I’m extremely excited to announce I’ve joined the @LockedOnNetwork as the host of “Locked on Boilermakers!” I’m grateful for the opportunity to build this show and change the way Purdue sports are covered! Check out Locked on Boilermakers Monday-Fridays! #boilerup
Safe to say this worked out. Thankful for all of you over the past six years.
Statement via Tahj Ra-El’s agency “This has been a difficult period for all involved. While there are differing perspectives on what occurred, Tahj acknowledges that errors in judgment may have been made. At no point was there any intent to harm teammates or compromise the…
#Titans WR Treylon Burks suffered a fractured collarbone here at their stadium practice, per me and @TomPelissero. Burks will undergo further tests, but he’s expected to miss the start of the season at least. A frustrating outcome for the young pass catcher.
Over/under 3.5 wins for Purdue in Barry Odom's first-year as head coach? @nickarvinsports says "take the over" 247sports.com/college/purdue…
Antione West Jr is going to have a breakout year
Purdue coach Matt Painter on freshman Antoine West Jr: “Like with Carsen Edwards, after a while, you're like, 'Just shoot it. Let it rip.' That's who he is," Painter said. "I think he has more playmaking (ability) than Carsen, but he still has that element where he can make deep…
Purdue took center stage at Big Ten Media Days on Thursday Summarizing what head coach Barry Odom and players Tony Grimes, CJ Madden, and Devin Mockobee said 247sports.com/college/purdue…
Purdue administration has “no concerns” surrounding alleged leaked text messages that showed former Memphis safety Tahj Ra-El sending UTSA’s quarterback their playbook before a November matchup.
This gives off the impression that both Browne and Singleton are going to see the field at QB.
#Purdue's Barry Odom discussed how quarterback may be handled this season.
Something that’s been missing from Purdue the last two years is a genuine home-field advantage. Taking on USC, Indiana, Illinois, and Ohio State at home this year, Ross-Ade needs to be loud.
“You can't lose sight of how to build your team the right way. Having the right culture, the right habits, the right fit.” - Barry Odom
My primary takeaway from Odom’s session at media day is that the days of dysfunction within the Purdue program are over. There’s a good chance he doesn’t find instant success at Purdue, but the players respect him, which contrasts with the previous administration.
Some notes from Barry Odom’s return to Vegas for Big 10 Media Day • There is still definite uncertainty concerning the starting quarterback position. • Odom has put coordinators around himself that he trusts. • Purdue will rely on a traditional high school recruiting…
Odom made a point to mention the character of Purdue running back Devin Mockobee today at media days. The senior back is just 1,200 yards away from being the leading rusher in Purdue history.
"I do feel strongly that we have multiple quarterbacks that can play winning football in the Big Ten Conference. I think it's going to take more than one guy to get that done this year, for a number of reasons.” - Barry Odom on QB situation for Purdue
Coming off a 4-8 season, multiple tweaks and offseason adjustments helped Jeff Faris prepare for year two as Austin Peay’s head coach. mainstreetmediatn.com/articles/mains…
