Based on my one game sample size and this benching, Hazell reminds me a lot of timecop. Does Appleby have the eligibility to transfer to an SEC team next year and set some records?

I'd like to get Hazell alone in a room and have him explain his rationale for benching Appleby. After reading french's review of the defense, it sounds like Appleby made all the right decisions based on how the defense was playing. Appleby really didn't make very many mistakes. That interception by Alexander was ridiculous. It wasn't like Appleby didn't see the safety. Alexander was in a different zipcode when that ball was thrown. Appleby seems like a pretty good QB on a really bad team. The breakdowns against us were schematic. Bud dictated where the play was going, and dictated every play went in a direction Purdue sucked at. I think krak_t is dead on in his Mike London comparison.

Poor guy. Gets the hell kicked out of him, asked to run the ball because the D is taking away his give reads, defense can't get a stop and even the special teams is screwing up, and he gets blamed for it. Yeesh.

Let's hope he doesn't Blough his opportunity.
By being such a Blough-hard.
That does totally Blough for Appleby.
I'm sure he'll be fine once it all Bloughs over.

Having a bad day against our defense isn't a reason to get benched.
Although it does seem to be a reason to transfer to UGA
Bud Foster. He'll get after ya

Well, it's not like he was pressured or hurried at all, according to Purdue's official stats...
Bravo on being PC about the cake/pie civil war
Team Pie guy here,
Actually, I'm ok with just going with "icing on the cake" here.
"Filling on the pie", while sounding absolutely delicious, just doesn't fit the bill here.
How about "whipped cream with a cherry on top"?

Darrell Hazell wants to see what Mark Leal can do.
Oops, wrong thread :)
I heard they had a pretty good TE they could use
FTFY
Darrell Hazell thinks Motley doesn't deserve a chance, and wants to just start Lawson.
Nah, there's no bad place for a vote for Leal
