One more staff opening was filled today as Purdue essentially traded a Defensive coach for a dedicated Quarterbacks coach. As you know, Terry Malone was promoted to offensive coordinator to replace John Shoop, who served as both quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator. Shoop was fired along with Rubin Carter and Greg Hudson. Carter served as defensive line coach, so Purdue had two coordinator positions and a position coach open.
Malone moving made it two position coaches and a coordinator position, and now one of the position coaching spots is gone with Tim Lester taking the Quarterbacks coach spot.
