Well, after a 2-10 season, things are gonna change, DESPITE it being a new head coach in his first year.
12/8:
Purdue gets rid of OL and RB coaches12/11:
Purdue hires new OL coach: Welcome Zach Crabtree from Fresno State, who had a top 10 run game last season. He has experience previously with Purdue OC Josh Henson as both a player (OkSU) and position coach (USC) under Henson.
12/15:
Purdue moves WR coach to RB, promotes WR coach from within: Longtime Odom assistant Cornell Ford will move back to his traditional position responsibility as RB coach from WR coach. Asst WR coach and Purdue WR alumni Bilal Marshall will be promoted to WR coach.
12/18:
Defensive coordinator moving on: This one is relatively fresh so it's unclear whether he was dismissed, mutually agreed it wasn't working, or is pursuing another opportunity. Either way, Purdue's defense sucked, so anything beyond a LOFT problem (lack of effing talent) falls to the DC.
Also, as of 12/16, H&R now has a post tracking the Purdue transfer portal situation...
Purdue Transfer Portal TrackerSo far there are 10 players entered into the portal. I can't really tell you about many of them, because Purdue was such a putrid product to watch this year that I only recognize two names...
