Allen was able to recruit the state better than Brohm
- Thread starter td75
- Start date
9 teams on our schedule are in Bowls (MN is going too). That's not an easy schedule by anyone's partisan view...(if those assessing it have half a brain cell left functioning)...
Yeah, see what I mean? & Maryland would have been another had they not lost to us on a last second FG, or blown the OSU game, or not lost to Temple...gosh, if we feel bad about not winning 6, how 'bout Maryland fans? OUCH! They couldn't come much closer, excruciating to not win 6 looking at their games & how they played out.
Always so much emotion everywhere....
Williams is a risk, IU decided the risk was worth it. With the extra open spots in the recruiting class they could afford the risk most schools couldn't with full or nearly full classes.
Both schools are in better shape than they have been in a long time. Arguing which coach is better is silly at this point, need 2 or 3 more years and it will be completely evident. Allen is riding an easier non conference schedule typically and needs to show he can beat the bigs. Brohm has had the excuse he's playing with Hazel upperclassmen and gets a pass for achieving more without a program full of "his kids".
My gut says Brohm will win out but I am a Boiler fan so.... there you are.

Williams was not a risk. You believe your fellow brethren too much. Just because he didn't choose PU doesn't mean the other schools took a risk. Unless you have an image of this grade report you are only talking out of your rump.
Secondly, are you seriously comparing the PU schedule vs IU? lol IU was #19, PU was #33. Are you sitting here telling me Eastern Michigan was a hard game? We swept our out of conference, don't be upset because you couldn't do that. Your post was about as PU slanted as it gets.
Williams is not a risk. Purdue just didn't have room for him because their coaches couldn't count up to 25. They wanted to leave a spot for Bell, but then took 25 commitments(?!?!) and now they're forcing their other two linebackers to grey/blue shirt in case Bell does commit. Williams likely did not want to greyshirt so signed with IU.
As for SOS rankings, I have not seen those numbers you posted. Where did you get them? I'd appreciate a link, if you could. Everything I saw has us in the 30's.
Sure, they are from SI. First thing that popped up when I googled SOS #'s.

The link you posted has Iowa at 19, Purdue at 32 and Indiana at 69.
Well (pu) girls..., if you bother to look a little closer: Actual Strength of Schedule had INDIANA's as 19th toughest and pu's as 33rd toughest. All the rest is just some columnists alternative version of reality...
I understand your difficulty comprehending that however given your lack of a well rounded education. The article did have numbers in it though so I'm surprised you found it so challenging...
Next time try to include stick drawings for the pu trolls..., then again...

LOL. How big a sample size before a Purdue grad can come up with the right answer.
You have already proven that you cant read. Link me any computer ranking that has our SOS at 60. They might have a overall rank of 60, but no way in hell the SOS is.

You may have been correct and I saw overall rank. This from sagarin has IU at 17 and Purdue at 7. It still proves Purdue had a more difficult schedule.
I saw that. Different ones have different ranks. Some have Purdue, some IU. Really there was very little difference.
Hate to break it to you..., but your definitive source just had his # 49 ranked team (MN) beat his 39th ranked team (GT) by more than 3 touchdowns.
I'm thinking he (and you) may want to revisit his approach to strength of schedule ranking...
It’s a total crapshoot. In the end both teams played a tough schedule.
Lol. Ummm, sort by the SOS column and you will see IU at 19 and PU at 33. I didn't think I needed to give instructions but I forgot PU fans were watching.....still. I should've given a picture diagram.
