Back-up qb situation?

[NatiHoosier]

Well, purdue has only had 3 elite 11 guys, and their most recent 2 (Blough and Appleby) are 2 of the more headscratching inclusions as both were very lightly recruited (solid recruits for sure, but far from top flight). Orton was their other one, back in 2000.

My point is, if we can get one really solid QB to come through and lead us to a bowl game, we should be setting ourselves up for further success in recruiting QBs in the future. Purdue has gotten 3 Elite 11 QBs and the Kentucky Mr. Football in the last few years, all with sub par records worse than ours.
