Some people will argue that mustaches should be reserved for Porn Stars, Yankee first basemen, or Tom Selleck. We all know the MZone made the Buck-stache famous, but I am here to tell you that the Purdue Boilermakers have a secret mustache society of their own. For some reason, you need a mustache to be able to coach/lead the football team in West Lafayette.
Let me provide you with some proof:
Here is the Head Coach and Retiree in waiting: Joe Tiller. You can see below that Joe sports a thick gray mustache. We call this the Head Pur-stache.
Next is Defensive Coordinator Brock Spack: Brock has been the Defensive Coordinator for 12 years and was hoping to replace the top mustache when he retired to a groomer in Wyoming. Brock has the upper lip hair to lead men and should have been a serious candidate for top Pur-stache. Brock unfortunately did not get the Head Pur-stache (in waiting) job and continues his Defensive Coordinator duties. Many have wondered if his Stache was too powerful and full for the job. Brock is also a recent recipient of the "Jason Giambi" Stache award.
Associate head coach and head coach in waiting Danny Hope. Danny will become the Head Stache after the Top Tiller Pur-stache steps down. Danny as you can see has a thinner but similar style to the current top stache which was the #1 reason he was chosen to succeed the Top Pur-stache next year.
Terrell Williams is in his third season with the Boilermakers coaching the Defensive Ends. Being only at Purdue for three years, Terrell needs some time grow out his Pur-stache. After a couple years of growth, look for Terrell to really "climb the ladder" of the Purdue coaching staff.
Memo to:
Mark Hagen - Assistant Head Coach, Special Teams Coordinator, Linebackers Coach
Ed Zaunbrecher - Co-Offensive Coordinator, Quarterbacks Coach
Lou Anarumo - Defensive Backs Coach
John McDonell - Offensive Tackles and Tight Ends Coach
Brian Rock - Wide Receivers Coach
Joel Thomas - Running Backs Coach
Ed Zaunbrecher - Co-Offensive Coordinator, Quarterbacks Coach
Lou Anarumo - Defensive Backs Coach
John McDonell - Offensive Tackles and Tight Ends Coach
Brian Rock - Wide Receivers Coach
Joel Thomas - Running Backs Coach
If you want to get promoted at Purdue University you better start growing the Pur-stache soon.
P.S. For those of you wondering who covers Purdue Football on the radio? Well it's Joe McConnell.
