    It’s too bad things didn’t go Tech’s way to keep him here when the momentum was working in our favor. That’s typical for Tech though... one step forward, two steps back.

    I’m wondering if Goff will be calling Tech to get a 3 game series here in his early northern cold weather season to kick our asses? If I was him, I would.

    One step forward, try to step back, trip and fall, break a hip, then try and put a positive spin on it since you didn’t break your neck.

    No way we could compete with Alabama. He was getting $450k a year, better facilities, and investment to baseball. I would of taken the job offer. What was he making at Tech, $125k?

    Yeah, but the quality of life in Ruston is worth a $half-million at least!

    The last thing he needs at Purdue is to get beat up on by a (quote our AD) mid major baseball team EllAye Tech.

    Best of luck to him. I wished he was still here to be honest.

    I’m not so sure how ‘nice’ he is. Perhaps he’s nice enough not to beat other teams when he should but it wasn’t nice calling out ‘his’ team for not being talented enough.

    I think Burroughs has a blind spot in identifying the detail of what he needs to do to improve his team.

    I was on campus at Alabama this week and parked next to the baseball stadium daily. It is a beautiful park. Absolutely astounding! They have a video board in Left Center that is the biggest I have seen. Their baseball campers were watching the Super Regional on it at night and pumping the sound through the PA. It was pretty awesome. That being said Bama ain't a baseball school and Goff got fired fore being too mean. He was desperate to win, pulled some bonehead stunts and the new AD canned him for it.

    I was scanning through MLB games on Sirius XM soon after Purdue hired Goff and the announcers for one of the upper Midwest teams were really criticizing Purdue for hiring Goff. I hope he makes them eat their words.

    He will. He is a proven winner everywhere he has been except the 1 year at Bama
