Caleb Swanigan
Boiler Index: Smoking
The campaign for Caleb Swanigan as
national player-of-the-year was gaining
momentum in the middle of February,
boosted by a specially designed Purdue
website, Biggie4NPOY.com. But his own
play — nine straight double-doubles as
of Feb. 19 — is his biggest attention-
getter.
Jeff Brohm
Boiler Index: Steaming
New Purdue coach Jeff Brohm has
endeared himself to Purdue fans early
with his laid-back, casual approach.
But challenges await, starting this
spring.
Devynne Charlton
Boiler Index: Smoldering
Devynne Charlton entered Big
Ten Indoor Championships in late
February as the top seed in the
60-meter dash and second in the
60 hurdles, the latter of which she
holds the fifth-best time in the
country this season.

Remember When …
Joe Tiller's first recruiting
class was featured
prominently on our cover in
February 1997. The class
was ranked last in the Big
Ten but had a few players
who played a big role in
the Boilermakers' trip to the
Rose Bowl four years later.
One of those players was a
skinny guy in the red jersey
on the top left side of the
cover. I think his name was
something like Brees.
