Minnesota 41 Purdue 10

Because you just got your brains beat in at Minnesota and Louisville just pulled the trigger on BP...proving that they're more than capable of buying out Petrino's balance and pursuing Jeff Brohm!!! He's gone, pal!

With the stench of him leaving being strongest around the Bucket game, get ready to hand the Bucket back, asshole

That doesn’t prove anything. You hope that’s what it means but you are simply hoping they hire Brohm and you being an IU fan, I get it. He would own your program for years.

You live in a world of utter denial..we all aee it, you don't or just don't want to

Says the guy who doesn’t think Purdue is a very good job. Take off your homer goggles. Purdue pays well, is in a great confetence, and has an easy path to the B1G Championship game. You’re blinded by your IU loyalty to not admit Purdue is a solid gig.

If Purdue gives Brohm 5.5 mil, is Louisville going to offer 6? That might be overpaying for Brohm. Not sure this is a done deal. It will be interesting though. If Brohm goes, Purdue will just find another good coach. Brohm isn't the reason the turnaround happened. It's the people that hired Brohm. Brohm was a good coach given everything he needed to succeed.

Whatever helps you cope with the soon to be reality is fine by all of us here. If it turns out not to be Brohm as the next head UofL football coach, I'll be quick to eat crow. I've been wrong before but I don't believe I am this time around.

Purdue is a dead end job and surely Jeff knows it. Nuff sed.

It is also a stepping stone to a better job. Brohm will have his chances this year and next. It is hard to come home and be the head coach. A lot of pressure.

I'm always amazed at your lofty view of all things Purdue. Purdue is a very good pharmacy, agricultural and engineering school...absolutely they are, but football program?? Lol, it's a tough place to consistently win at. You are in supreme denial on the subject matter.

Louisville really, really is a better job than Purdue. It's in a much easier conference to have a shot at the national championship. Purdue is certainly in the watery side of the Big Ten but they still must get past a loaded Michigan, PSU or Ohio State in the BIG title game. Louisville has access to better Southern players, too.

U of L is academically a terrible school. Purdue would never stoop so low to stop Brohm from going to U of L. To Purdue U of L is a dumpster fire

Your salty tears are delicious

Zipp, my first reaction to that data is that the record vs ranked teams is probably better than that of all but 10 active coaches. Second, the record against unranked teams is roughly average for a P5 coach.

Third, I would guess his vector is pretty good.

I'm not impugning Jeff Brohm as a coach, and I don't disagree with you. But what you're talking about paying him is more than "average for a P5 coach"...

 

[zipp]

The roster is never the same, year to year...

He's playing with the same roster against ranked and unranked teams. That variable IMO is not an issue. Also the same staff of coaches...
