Purdue Cancer Kid

Shorthand description for people like Tyler Trent, the 20 year old osteosarcoma bone cancer patient who inspired unranked Purdue to upset #2 Ohio State in football in 2018 after saying in a ESPN College GameDay feature regarding his cancer prognosis "The immediate future in my mind is that Purdue beats Ohio State next Saturday".

Has gone on to represent ANY inspiring person adopted by a sports for inspiration. Especially potent if accompanied by a feature story on ESPN by Tom Rinaldi.

When I saw Tom Rinaldi do the 6 minute feature story on the Purdue Cancer Kid, I knew immediately we were gonna lose.

Purdue’d

To get Purdue’d is to have a sports team get so highly rated and then lose in significant fashion to a much lower level or ranked team. Much like Purdue university men’s basketball team does every March in the NCAA tournament.

Kansas State in their last three elite 8’s have gotten Purdue’d so hard, losing to non power conference teams.
