Boilers shake it up to meet Buckeyes
Can Elliott unseat Painter as starting QB? Not today.
By Pete DiPrimio
of The News-Sentinel

WEST LAFAYETTE ? So who is Joey Elliott and can he really unseat Curtis Painter as Purdue?s starting quarterback the rest of the season?

First, understand that Painter is still the starter. Coach Joe Tiller made that clear minutes after Saturday?s 20-6 loss to No. 6 Penn State. Painter will start Saturday at No. 12 Ohio State because he gives the Boilers the best chance to win.

Painter, after all, ranks second to Drew Brees in Purdue history in passing yardage. He ranks among the best in every significant school career passing category. Before the season the school launched a mini-Heisman Trophy candidate campaign with Painter.

Of course, when after five games you?ve thrown five touchdown passes and five interceptions, as Painter has done for the 2-3 Boilers, that kind of campaign has a way of disappearing.

And so it has.

Still, if Purdue is to earn a bowl bid in Tiller?s final season, something has to change. As Bob Knight so famously said so many times, the best way to send a message to a player?s brain is through his, well, rump. In other words, bench him.

So Painter got to watch Elliott direct a fourth-quarter touchdown drive ? showing poise and patience in the process ? to suggest Painter might watch more if he doesn?t improve his play.

So who is Elliott?
