It's so poetic that Del Alexander won us our first bowl game since 2000. One of our own.
So WTF do I get as a fan that has waited for this for over 269 years?
Our first 11 win season, well sorry to see it end but it was definitely a fun one for the ages. Hopefully someday it is looked back on as a stepping stone.
I appreciate what he did for us this season. He has a lot of good intangibles in that he didn’t pout when he didn’t start and he was prepared and ready to go and helped us move forward to a great season. He’s physically and mentally tough, and can run well with the ball, but man he just can’t pass at all.
Incredible season especially considering our starting QB punked out on us three games into the season and we lost our coach (truly) before the MWCC. 11 wins will be tough to replicate but ya gotta like the future of our program. It’s never been brighter. I’ll be trolling for recruiting and transfer announcements for the next few months!! LFG REBELS!!!
What a season. 11 wins and we put UC Berkeley undo .500. Go cry into your 86 “National Championships” in rugby, rowing and water polo.
Ok I’m done. Go. Fight. Win!!!!
Ok I’m done. Go. Fight. Win!!!!
Scherer pitched two consecutive shutouts in the 2nd half vs Boise and Cal. And UNLV won a bowl game when our QB goes 5/18. I'd like to keep him.
He’s only 31???? Our boy needs a vacation and some time away from the sun. Thought he was pushing mid-40s at least. Them 31 hard years.
I’d love to keep him too. Not happening but it’d be great.
His D also gave up only 3 in the 2nd half vs Kansas.
They were a bit feast or famine, had chinks in the armor, but for a change it was more feast, in large part because of the turnovers forced. And we finally had some sacks for a change.
He was excellent at adjustments. When you think of how much better our defense played in the second half of games this year. It is a shame we can’t keep him.
Well, Scherer might be on the way out the door, but he won’t be at Purdue long either. He’ll find his way into a HC seat in a couple of years.
He showed up and did a great job making adjustments like he has all year long.
3-1 against P4 teams this season. Amazing!

Edit. Yes, the belt was the game trophy. Woodard and DeJesus received individual traditional trophy's for offensive and defensive players of the game.

Mullen didn't even give the guy a chance. I'm guessing Odom didn't give him a chance at Purdue but, I'm not sure. We will see him on the sidelines somewhere in the near future.
I wish he would have but also get it head coaches want to work with people they know and he probably has no relationship with him.
Mullen was the HC at Mississippi State when Scherer was in high school. He or someone on his staff could have very well tried to recruit him. Though to your point, even if Mullen tried to recruit him and if there is an established relationship; there is no way its to the same level with the student/mentor relationship that Odom has with him.
