All year long, our fans support our 18 programs by traveling to home and away games, meets and matches.

This year, our caravans will be highlighted by the presence of four Purdue coaches: TM • New head football coach Darrell Hazell has had a busy four and a half months at Purdue. During the caravan, he will speak about his expectations for this year's team as well as long-term goals for the program. • Men's basketball coach Matt Painter will discuss last season's performance and take fans through his trust in a young team. • Former Purdue student-athlete and current head women's basketball coach Sharon Versyp will review her back-to-back Big Ten Tournament title teams and highlight new recruits joining the program. • Dave Shondell, who has led the volleyball program to seven NCAA Tournament appearances in the last eight years, will join us this year to talk about how his team plans to transition last year's success into another bountiful season this fall.
