C
oach Darrell Hazell admitted
on national signing day that
recruiting was an exhaustive
process. After a day waiting on 23
prospects to officially sign with the
Boilermakers, the new coach greeted
about 800 fans in Mackey Arena. The
audience ran the gamut, from John
Purdue Club members to students, but
all, including athletic director Morgan
Burke, were engaged by Hazell���s
30-minute presentation. Like in school
and church, it was interesting that fans
wanted to be close to the new guy,
yet no one was seated in the first few
rows. Some things never change.
