He gone!
He gone
That's what I took from it. If he wasn't seriously considering it he would say he was staying.
If you truly believe what you are posting, why are you over here? You hope that you’re right, but deep down you doubt that you are. As I have said before, if he comes here that would be great, if not then we will get a quality coach anyway.
Throughout this entire ordeal, I've maintained the idea that Brohm could potentially be using this as a springboard to close his recruiting in 2019 for David Bell and 1-2 other highly rated players knowing their biggest question is him staying. This play would be going hand in hand with his comments he made last year:If you truly believe what you are posting, why are you over here? You hope that you’re right, but deep down you doubt that you are. As I have said before, if he comes here that would be great, if not then we will get a quality coach anyway.
Agreed. I happen to think that unless UofL is ready to offer as much as $6, there is a very good chance Purdue's AD could realistically offer that much plus as much as $4.5 million in support salary. Could UofL, right now, realistically give near $11 million per year in salary? If Purdue believes THE ONLY way for their success to continue is with Brohm, they would gladly offer Brohm top 5 type money (near or above $6 million per year) because it would be valuable to do so.^Can't refute anything you said. My only comment would be that I think you're putting too much thought into it.
If you're a coach that has an opportunity to take a job that you want.....you aren't going to pass it up because you have a pretty good team coming back or because you'll be favored to win a weak division. Coaches don't think like that.
If Jeff Brohm wants to be the next coach at Louisville, he likely already knows it. Nothing Purdue can do in the next 2 weeks is going to affect that aside from Purdue offering him an absolutely insane salary. Jeff has had 2 opportunities to say he's coming back to Purdue and hasn't done that. That's telling....and if he makes it to December 6th without coming out and plainly confirming he will be at Purdue next year.....I would say we'll know pretty soon why.
That's completely out of context. Many UofL fans have said that they believe that should JB come home, the only thing that he would leave for is the NFL. Pretty big difference.Many of your own fans have said that Brohm will actually use UofL as a stepping stone for bigger jobs or the NFL. My question is why does he have to do that at UofL and not at Purdue?
So using your rationale, the coach that you desperately want to hold onto, has now engaged with two schools in two years about their HC positions and AT BEST for purdue, (has) is using those opportunities to leverage more money out of you?and lose his leveraging power? lol. He did the same thing last year with Tennessee.
I didn't take it out of context. There were other posts stating Brohm would only leave to go to Bama, OSU, etc....or the NFL. Why or how would that be any different at Purdue? If his goal is to get to the NFL or a top 8-10 job in college, wouldn't he be better served to take the known commodity in Purdue with a potential top 20 recruiting class, and the culture already established vs. the unknowns at Louisville?That's completely out of context. Many UofL fans have said that they believe that should JB come home, the only thing that he would leave for is the NFL. Pretty big difference.
It's different because in his two years at purdue, he (his reps) has talked to two different programs about their HC positions. What that means is that JB already considers purdue a steppingstone - and to programs that (as much as I and the volunqueers would like to believe are) are not close to the current level of the Gumps or the Bucknuts.I didn't take it out of context.

When you change jobs in college football, nothing is guaranteed.
Again, the emotional decision is UofL and I'm not trying to argue that UofL has a strong advantage in that single category. But taking all else in to account...it is a push or advantage to Purdue. When you look at the culture and where both programs currently sit, Purdue has the advantage in that Brohm has already established his identity, his culture, his expectations, and knows he can recruit to Purdue.
Either way, both programs are better off now and will be in the future because of Jeff Brohm and because of Vince Tyra.
And maybe not even that. Maybe when he moves back he realizes what he's been missing with his family and never wants to leave. Maybe he doesn't even want to go to the NFLIt's different because in his two years at purdue, he (his reps) has talked to two different programs about their HC positions.

Should JB come home, IMO opinion, it would take the NFL or a top 5 CFB program to get his attention. If he comes home - he's not talking to South Carolina, Michigan St. or Miami about HC vacancies. That's the difference between UofL and purdue.
He would've taken the Tennessee job if it was offered. Luckily for us, he didn't. Don't kid yourself.and lose his leveraging power? lol. He did the same thing last year with Tennessee.
Can I have clarification that you are saying UofL is a more attractive job than Miami? The same Miami team that has had 4 national titles in the last 30 years?It's different because in his two years at purdue, he (his reps) has talked to two different programs about their HC positions.

Yes, considering his whole family his here and all of his ties here. This is his home. Would it be to someone who has no ties to the Louisville area? No.Can I have clarification that you are saying UofL is a more attractive job than Miami? The same Miami team that has had 4 national titles in the last 30 years?
Thank you for the clarification but that isn't how your message read.Yes, considering his whole family his here and all of his ties here. This is his home. Would it be to someone who has no ties to the Louisville area? No.

You may want to re-read my message because there really wasn't any ambiguity about it. I said that should JB come home - it would take a top 5 CFB program or, the NFL for him to leave here. That programs like the ones that I mentioned - that included Miami - would not be ones that he would consider. Not because you couldn't objectively argue that they are better programs - just that they weren't enough of a jump that JB would leave UofL for them.Thank you for the clarification but that isn't how your message read.

Again, that IMO is another difference between UofL and purdue. For Jeff Brohm.
Understand now?

Please. Those guys sucked. So glad they are history.to quote from the greatest band to ever play-
"Now he's gone, now he's gone, Lord he's gone, he's gone
Like a steam locomotive, rollin' down the track
He's gone, gone, nothin's gonna bring him back... He's gone"
Grateful Dead - He's Gone Lyrics
Good luck to Purdue as well.Thank you for the clarification. Was clearly reading with my Gold and Black glasses on.
Still believe it isn’t a done deal with Brohm yet to UofL and that he will allow both sides to give their pitch and then make a decision that includes those in his inner circle.
Good luck to you either way it turns put
