Purdue Football Coaching Changes: How Kill's Retirement Hurst the Boilers

The sad news of the day comes out of Minneapolis, where head coach Jerry Kill was forced into early retirement due to his ongoing health concerns. This is terrible news, but hopefully he can retire and live a long, healthy life away from the game of football. It sounds like stepping away is the right thing for him to do and I wish him the best for both he and his family.

This does affect Purdue as well. Kill was 4-1 all-time against the Boilers, including this season's victory that will go down as Kill's last as a coach.
