Is 2008 Tiller's last season?

UPDATE: Purdue today annouced the hiring of Danny Hope as the associate head football coach. Hope will take over as head coach after Tiller retires after next season.

It looks like Purdue is going to hire Tiller's successor before he retires, much like they did with Gene Keady and Matt Painter.

The Indy Star is reporting that Purdue is set to hire Danny Hope, who is currently Eastern Kentucky's head football coach.
