The brakes should be put on the anointing of David Blough as the next great quarterback at Purdue.
Even Blough himself would say he is far from joining the ranks of legendary passers for the Boilermakers such as Drew Brees, Len Dawson, Bob Griese and Jim Everett, among others at the “Cradle of Quarterbacks.”
Still, Blough has managed to do something recent Purdue quarterbacks haven’t: remain enrolled at Purdue.
Not only that, the sophomore from Carrollton, Texas, has the Boilermakers 2-1 for the first time in four seasons under embattled coach Darrell Hazell, a former Ohio State assistant.
