The Road Back
A
s our cover suggests, it will take
Coach Darrell Hazell and Co.
pressing the right buttons for the
Boilermakers to have a turnaround sea-
son in 2014. That may be a lot to expect,
but how the Boilermakers go about
their business in
'14 will give the
strongest indica-
tion of just when
winning football
returns to the
sideline at Ross-
Ade Stadium.
Our cover cap-
tion should not be
construed to sug-
gest that all the
right buttons will
be pushed. Yet,
Hazell's resto-
ration project has
been based on
getting things in
the right place so
the right buttons can be pushed. Chang-
ing the culture has been a full-time job
for the second-year boss, and like any
strategic plan, one has to
hope the necessary focus
is on all the right things
that will deliver success.
Time will tell on that.
This topic and much more is dis-
cussed on our
annual football
preview issue.
We talk a look at
the uniform craze
and even get some
dream designs
from three play-
ers. It is interest-
ing stuff in an era
where there is so
much emphasis
on looking good.
So, if you are
looking at a great
summer read,
take advantage of
our special offer.
We think you will
be glad that you did.
