The nature of coaching churn in college football forces head coaches to flat out lie. There is a 3 week window where the bodies start piling up (terminations) and the replacement names start being floated. You have no choice but to be somewhere between dodgy and dishonest with those who have invested in you and bought into your successful leadership at your current team. I would be surprised if he has not had to directly state he is committed to Purdue several times in the last few weeks to players, fans and boosters. Count me as one person that is glad our number one candidate is struggling with that. The guy we just cut loose never had such qualms. I would argue that is a big reason why we find ourselves in the spot we are now in.
