Purdue hosted its annual media day Friday in Ross-Ade Stadium.

Coach 'ecstatic' about Jones: It's been an eventful career for Markell Jones, the running back who was outstanding for a losing team as a freshman, then up and down for one reason or another from there on out, with extreme highs and extreme lows as a player.
