rogue3542 Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 8 hours ago, Leathernecks said: From what I've been able to gather on Louisville boards from what people consider their insiders, they've been saying for more than a week that it's basically been agreed upon. Somebody posted on their premium board about the "surprisingly low" offer 7 or 8 days before it came out in public. They're pretty much all saying the "sleep on it" is so he can go tell Purdue, and tell his team that he'll be leaving. Never know until it is official, but that's what I've been able to gather from their boards. I'd be surprised if we don't hear something either way tomorrow. Let's say he goes to Louisville; do you think some players transfer to stay with him? The first one that comes to mind is Moore. He's from the Louisville area, and didn't Brohm's dad have something to do with his coaching in high school? On another note, I think it's telling that when Purdue was in the process of hiring Brohm, he wouldn't discuss anything until the season was over, but now he may leave for Louisville well before the season is over. It would seem that the pull of going home is very strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 According to a few articles floating around this morning. Recruits are being told and given the impression that Brohm will be taking the Louisville job. No good way to handle this. If you say nothing people will complain about the silence. If you say something people will use those words against you if your mind is changed. Either way....I think today is the day Brohm says he's headed home.

BeerBQ Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 I've been following this some. I definitely expect a decision today. The thing that gets me here is how strangely confident UL and PU fans both are. Somehow it seems recruits from both schools have been given the impression that Brohm will be their coach.

I haven't followed any of this on the PU boards because most PU fans annoy me haha. What's the sentiment on there now? Expecting him to stay or go?

UL fans expect him to come and think his agent is there due to the buyout and to review the counter offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slojoe Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 It sounds like the UL job is Brohm's if he wants it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't think many/any would follow. Maybe some of the incoming recruits, but not current players. I think I saw where PU only played something like 4 freshman more than 4 games, so not many of their players have a redshirt left. Moore is from Louisville, so maybe he could find a close family member who has health issues so he can get a waiver to move back to Louisville to be close to them. I don't know anything about his family, so that's just a made up, slightly far-fetched scenario. I don't see him looking to sit out a year.

Artesian_86 Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 I live about 30 minutes north of Louisville, so I get all Louisville news stations. Fred Cowgill, the sports anchor for WLKY Channel 32 posted an open letter to Jeff Brohm today. Take a look at what he had to say.....Pretty good read. http://amp.wlky.com/article/cowgill-an-open-letter-to-jeff-brohm/25337526 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me the longer it takes means he is staying at Purdue. It would lead me to believe that he is having trouble finding a good reason to leave Purdue for UL. Last year I predicted once UL job came open he would jump at the chance but now I don't think he will leave PU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many guys end up coaching their alma mater and ended up in the HoF? We came up with two off the bat.....Knute Rockne and Branch McCracken. After that...????????

Purdue will have him again...but if they think this conversation doesn't take place the last week in November every year until he leaves they are kidding themselves.
