Ron Zook's three Bob's

The third Bob might have been more sincere -- the reality of the fact that he'll be cleaning out his office in less than 2 weeks. The rest of the interview, to me, looked like a coach facing the realization that despite all of his efforts to help young men build a foundation for a solid life, it really doesn't matter much if you can't beat Purdue. He's getting paid millions to produce wins and fill stadiums, and with a 34-49 record, he's not doing what he's paid to do. And for that, he's facing the reality that after 7 years here, he has about 10 days left.
