Dec 1, 2024, 05:55 PM
Purdue University has fired head football coach Ryan Walters after just two seasons, following a 66-0 loss to rival Indiana. Walters, who had a record of 5-19 over his tenure, was dismissed due to the team's poor performance, including a 1-11 season this year. The decision was confirmed by multiple sources, with the university set to owe Walters a buyout of nearly $9.6 million as per his contract. Purdue Athletic Director Mike Bobinski issued a statement on the firing, expressing gratitude for Walters' commitment to the university despite the challenges faced. The firing leaves three power conference jobs open: Purdue, North Carolina, and UCF.
