WEST LAFAYETTE — Longtime Lafayette Journal & Courier sportswriter Tom Kubat stood humbled before hundreds of guests inside Purdue's Memorial Union last month while bestowed a recognition usually reserved for the greatest football players and coaches in Indiana history. Kubat was inducted into the Indiana Football Hall of Fame on June 25, 2023 for nearly a quarter century of covering Purdue and Big Ten football. He shared the Hall-of-Fame stage with Curtis Painter and Ryan Kerrigan, two former Indiana high school and Purdue Boilermaker standouts who went on to NFL careers.
