I dont think it is Fleck. I think that is wishful thinking.

Wishful thinking?

Something may change but he is most certainly the favorite right now with both sides thinking that.

Where is Fleck going?

Both sides thinking that? What is the other side? Has Fleck come out and said he is wanting to go to Purdue?

I have no idea where Fleck is going, just my personal opinion is that it will not be Purdue.

Reading Tennesee people on Facebook, they would like Butch Jones to go to Purdue

I have him going to ND once they part ways with coach red ass. I don't think anyone agrees with me but I just got a feeling.

That could happen, Oregon will more than likely need a coach too, I do wonder if Kelly winds up there.

I'm not going to argue with you about rumors. The point is right now there is a lot of smoke around It being him. That could change but calling it wishful thinking isn't right. It's clearly a strong possibility.

It will not be ND. It would be a disaster for both sides.

ND would take Fitzgerald first.

:lol: not going to argue about rumors? ok man.

A few days ago it was a lot of smoke around Miles. What happened to that? It was going to be Miles in the next 24 hours.

Maybe Fleck is waiting til after his season is over to go to Purdue. Or maybe he is waiting to see what other jobs come available. He is the hot name around. He would be silly to jump on Purdue and not see else would be open to him. There are going to be more jobs and better jobs come available.

I stand by my opinion that when all the dust settles Fleck will not be at Purdue. He is Purdues Shaka Smart.

He did an on campus interview and Purdue seems to have passed.

I understand if you think another job may come open that he decides to go to instead. Calling it "wishful thinking" is stupid. Fleck is clearly in play here for Purdue. I've never said it was a done deal. He is just the favorite right now. In fact, it wouldn't shock me if Purdue chose Calhoun or Brohm over him too.

I wouldn't be surprised by that either. These things are never done until they are done. The problem was you acted like it was a crazy thought to think that Fleck is a viable option for Purdue. He clearly is whether or not he ends up going there.

He is one of four finalists and seemingly the favorite right now. The odds are much higher that he ends up at Purdue over other places like Oregon though. The big threats seem to be North Carolina and maybe Cincinnati.

Saying it is wishful thinking is not saying that he was never in play. I think he has listened to Purdue and considered it. But at the end of the day he will not go there. He has his sights set on a bigger job. It is wishful thinking by Purdue fans to think that he is going to end up there.

And of course if Purdue ends up going with Calhoun or someone it will be spun that they passed on Fleck. Anyone with a brain knows Fleck is a better choice than any of the other names mentioned with the exception of Miles. But of course that is spun too as Purdue passed on Miles. :lol: Miles was never going to WL either.

:lol: That seems to be a little bit of backtracking there. I predict that Fleck is interviewing for the job at some point in the next week. If he does that then I think it is fair to say that it was more than "wishful thinking".

You are clueless on Miles. What job is Miles going to get? Miles really wanted to be at Purdue. It's pretty obvious you haven't followed the coaching search at all. Miles may not even get a job this year. Do you honestly think that Miles passed on them?

Fleck would be lucky to have Purdue and Purdue would be lucky to have Fleck.

He needs a lot of polishing to be the front man of a signature program. He's in that category of successful psychos who need to be in underdog type situations.

Yup. Brian Kelly was the same way. He needed a stop before the big time.

:lol: i love you brick. Because I disgree with you I am clueless and dont follow along. I would venture to say besides you I follow Purdue stuff more than anyone else around the board. Guess we shall see who is right. Miles will get a job and Fleck will be a coach somewhere other than Purdue

Don't change the discussion. Fleck may end up somewhere else. That doesn't meant it was wishful thinking. Is Fleck going to interview at Purdue this weekend or early next week?

I haven't mentioned it but my original guy with Fleck is supposedly now a player too. There is a legitimate case that Brohm gets offered before Fleck. Calhoun and Spack would not be chosen over Fleck though.

Earlier in the thread you said that Miles will have better opportunities than Purdue. Are you sticking by that?

I have not changed anything. My position here has been the same. Fleck and miles will both have better options than purdue.

You said it was "wishful thinking" that Purdue could get him. Now you are saying you think Fleck goes somewhere else which is something I've never disagreed with. If Fleck interviews at Purdue then it was not wishful thinking. You shouldn't have been so condescending.

As for Miles, good luck with that. :lol:

Post subject:  Re: Purdue Football Being Sucked Into the Earth
So to sum it up, so we can look back on it in a week or so. Here is my list.

1A) Fleck
1B) Brohm
2) Calhoun
3) Spack
10) Skip Holtz
They are clearly waiting on either Fleck or Brohm to finish their championship game.

Like I said when the rumors started, no to Les Miles.

I am not sure how saying it is wishful thinking is condescending but whatever works for you. Fans of team overestimate how good of a job their school is. It happens all the time. Like illinois with shaka smart. Indiana does it every time they have an opening.

It's condescending because unless something major happens Fleck will be interviewing there in the next week. I mean, there are multiple reporters from the state of Indiana that reported it's a done deal or nearly a done deal he will be the next coach. I'm not going that far and I don't think it is completely accurate either. There were names that were wishful thinking but those have mostly gone away.

I have been.

I was willing to buy in if he brought in two superstar assistants from Alabama which was unlikely to say the least.
