Bobby Riddell is in this third season as the Purdue men’s basketball radio crew analyst. He appeared in 83 games for the Boilermakers in coach Matt Painter’s first four seasons at Purdue, playing on three teams that reached the NCAA Tournament. A local product (Harrison High School in West Lafayette), “Bobby Buckets” as he was affectionally named, is a former walk-on. With his Purdue degree in accounting, Riddell works for the University.

Tim House was named associate athletics director and senior director of development Aug. 24, 2018. He was promoted to interim senior associate athletics director/assistant vice president for development in April of 2019 and had the interim tag removed in July of 2019. He was again elevated to an executive senior associate athletics director/associate vice president for development in July 2021.

Since his arrival, House and the John Purdue Club staff have established the Boilermaker Athletics Representative (B.A.R.) program and the Boiler UPgrade initiative that was instrumental in the growth of the annual fund from $6.75 million in 2018 to $8.1 million in 2019. House drives the long-term goals of the John Purdue Club, which include funding the entire Purdue Athletics scholarship bill of more than $12 million and supporting over 10,000 members. House also leads major gift acquisition for facility and capital projects.

House came to the Boilermakers from Army West Point Athletics, where he spent five of the past seven years (2012-14 and 2015-18). During that time, he was a part of the Army A Club staff and ultimately oversaw a unit that grew from $2.7 million in unrestricted annual fund dollars upon his arrival to over $7.4 million. In his most recent role as associate athletics director for development, House managed a portfolio of donors and prospects with both a high-level annual fund and major gift focus, while also overseeing the Army A Club staff.
