November 15, 20187 yr Strong can’t come back, y’all. Those bridges are fully burned. And has nothing to do with football.
November 16, 20187 yr The only time I have heard Brohm as a top coaching candidate has been when people have talked about who should get the UL job. Other than that I have not heard his named mentioned nationally at all, as this top coach that top programs will be fighting over. Brohm has potential to be that next top up and coming coach, but I haven't heard his named mentioned in those likes yet anywhere except from this area. Urban Meyer, Tom Herman, Brian Kelly, Scott Frost, etc. are all guys I know I definitely heard about when those coaches were at small schools and had great success to become that top hot national coach that all top program wanted. I haven't seen that with Brohm, probably because he hasn't done much in regards to winning to be that name yet, where he would be someone that the true top programs would want and would be excited about. Put it this way if USC were to hire him after this year, and finish only 6 and 6. Most of those fans probably will throw a fit, saying that is the best we can get? Is a .500 coach from Purdue? He is an up and coming coach and would be a GREAT hire for UL. However I don't think he is perceived as this national top hot coach as some on here seem to think. He may be that one day, but he isn't that yet. Those other guys I mentioned were that though. @SLINK would fans in at USC get mad if Brohm came there? I highly disagree. I think USC fans would love the Brohm hire, but I figured I should defer this to the expert.

He may be that one day, but he isn't that yet. Those other guys I mentioned were that though. I’m not going to act like some sort of expert on it, but I listen to college football podcasts daily when I work out. In the summertime they have nothing else to talk about besides stuff like coaches who could take over a big job the next year. Brohm was always one of the first names mentioned. He took a team that won 3 games and had the worst talent in Big 10 besides Rutgers and went 7-5 and won a bowl game. He was 100% on the radar. Those other guys you mentioned were coaching at non P5 schools.

I think if you go to most fan bases across the country and you say the name Brohm. Most wont even know who you are talking about or would give a question like answer like the coach at Purdue? Slink may not mind it because you knows him, just like we all do on this site. However to most fan bases around the country, they would have no idea. Because he is not a house hold name and really hasn't accomplished anything that would be national news worth besides for one week in his time at Purdue.

Those other guys you mentioned were coaching at non P5 schools. Fair enough. I wont argue that you heard it. I know your a football junkie too, so I wont disagree that you heard that. Thats why your one of my favorites on here, even though we disagree a lot. You are passionate and knowledgeable even if our opinions differ. I'm just saying I haven't, and I bet most fans across the country havent.
November 16, 20187 yr That dude is the absolute worst. I mean, he’s a tool and all, but he typically doesn’t just throw stuff out there. He usually knows what he’s talking about.

If you Jeff Brohm isn’t a household name but believe Scott Frost, Urban Meyer, Brian Kelly, and Tom Herman were before they landed their big jobs I’m not sure what to tell you other than I respectfully disagree. Other than maybe Les Miles and Lane Kiffin, which serious candidates for HC vacancies are household names?

Other than maybe Les Miles and Lane Kiffin, which serious candidates for HC vacancies are household names? Scott Frost has UCF talked about and national stories on it, so yes. Urban Meyer had Bowling Green playing with the big boys and produced the number one pick of the draft. People across the nation knew him. Brian Kelly had UC a field goal away from playing in the National Championship. So yes people knew and heard of him, national news. Tom Herman from his time at OSU winning the title as OC and then having that year with Houston when they beat a top team and was starting to get in the conversation like UCF nationally. All those people did become house hold names because they were winning. Brohm at Purdue has had one week where people would have heard his name, and yet his team still has a chance to not even go to a bowl game. So no Brohm is not a name people around the country probably really have heard much idea about, any why a USC fan base would probably not love the idea of a east coast guy who biggest job was being 500 at Purdue.

Which fans are we talking about? The diehard fans or the casual fans?
November 16, 20187 yr @SLINK would fans in at USC get mad if Brohm came there? I highly disagree. I think USC fans would love the Brohm hire, but I figured I should defer this to the expert. 95% of USC fans want Clay Helton gone. They would be happy with the hiring of Jeff Brohm. As long as Jeff changed the culture Helton has created, he would win 10+ games a year, conference championships, and always be in the discussion for the college football playoff.
November 16, 20187 yr USC fans know about Jeff. They are very in tune about college football all across the country.
November 16, 20187 yr Which fans are we talking about? The diehard fans or the casual fans? A lot of the Trojan fanbase are wanting Dino Babers.
November 16, 20187 yr A lot of the Trojan fanbase are wanting Dino Babers. I imagine pretty much every fan base is...
