He already has more bowl game wins than Stoops at Purdue, with astronauts.

 

Right. He's a better coach than Stoops, and Purdue is a better program than Kentucky. Not sure what that has to do with anything....:idunno:

You’re delusional absolutely delusional if you think Purdue is even remotely similar to UL as a job goes. That’s just patently absurd. Recruiting, boosters, facilities, location. Every single one of these is heavily in UL favor.

Nice attack. Brohm was a hit candidate before this season and before they beat OSU.

 

You can't blame anyone on here from viewing all your college football posts as being framed from a "what opinion is going to make Ohio State look the best" perspective.

Purdue is not a better program that UK. That’s absurd.

Dino Babers would be a better candidate for either job (UofL or USC) than Brohm IMO. Talk about turning around a train-wreck....

 

Why would Babers leave Syracuse for UofL?

Bull. I 100% can blame you for it.

And yet, the only thing that matters, winning, is at worst pretty much on par.

 

Plus have to factor in the easier path to the conference title game. Lot easier to get there against the trash B1G division Purdue is in, as opposed to going through FSU & Clemson each year.

I don't think he would. I think he would for USC though, which was another job brought up in here.

If you think winning is the only thing that qualifies a good job then you are just wrong. Flat wrong.

If ask coaches if they'd rather have a place they can win at, or a job that has great facilities, great campus life, etc., but doesn't have a winning atmosphere or environment, I'd be willing to bet all (or nearly all) would take the job that they can win at, regardless of the other factors.

 

Just my opinion.

I totally agree that Babers would be a better candidate but frankly and I mean this with all sincerity, is UofL better than the rise he is on at Syracuse? I think not! In the same conference and had Syracuse made a fg at the end of the game they would have beaten Clemson, the #2 team in the country, two years in a row! I don't see what being at UofL has to offer vs. what he's getting done with the Orange and because of this UofL should go after the hometown guy in Brohm. Babers has already rebuilt a mess at Syracuse so why would he take a step back in muck and start all over again? Brohm hasn't done much at Purdue and the fact that they just got smacked around vs. Minnesota let's me know it's going to be a while before they are relevant if at all and that's even with beating OSU which frankly there would have been a whole bunch of teams that would have lost that night.

 

UofL administration set the program back when they brought back the 2nd Act of Petrino so they have a ton of work to do.

UL is a top 20 job, Purdue is not. UK is not....

What makes UL top 20 and the others not?

It’s not just about winning percentage. It’s about your potential to win. What’s your potential to win at Purdue. It’s in the middle of no where Indiana, you have strict admission standards which makes recruiting difficult, and it has little to no history of success. 1 10 win season in school history. The only thing comparable to UK is program success.

Potential is great but eventually potential has to prove out. Fact is Purdue has better results over the long haul. That's not even debatable. It's simply facts. Purdue was a good program under Tiller. Kentucky has not been a good program under anyone in the last 20-30 years. They've had good years but no one has been able to have sustained success. Brooks is probably as close to it as we've had. You can say how wrong we are and our opinions are absurd but where to the statics point?

Brohm has the #21 recruiting class in the country for Purdue next year. Before his arrival, they averaged around #71 for several years, those are the kids he’s currently playing with, minus Rondale Moore. If someone wants Brohm, they better get him while they can.
