after yesterday, I'm expecting it sometime today w/ an ass't coach being named as interim.

Not sure I understand why people think Tennessee is a program that's capable of luring a coach from another Power 5 school. Maybe they used to be a great program, but they're a dumpster fire at the moment. A middling program in the best conference, no thanks.

If Brohm was willing to ditch us after 1 year... good riddance.

I don’t think he’s that kind of guy but if he did jump, they deserve each other.

I agree, I don't think he'll even listen to Tennessee et al. Brohm's a classy guy and I think he has too much integrity for that. Plus his buyout in Year One is $12 million, right?

I think CJB is here to build a long term program. Arguably the easiest division in all of P5. He can be a superstar here if he gets kids to come.

Except Tenn is notoriously cheap.

Nebraska will hire frost as soon as they fire Riley

Don’t forget Sumlin, even if he wins out he is on the Hot Seat too! UCLA? Illini may be one year too soon,

I don't understand the fear of losing Brohm. When was the last time a Purdue coach actually left Purdue for a better job ?

Lee Rose left but there were circumstances behind his departure as he went back to his roots.

Young left, but he didn't leave for a better or higher paying job.

A couple of women's basketball coaches left , but there were circumstances involved.

a bunch of assistants have left.

My memory is bad. What Purdue coach actually left Purdue to accept a better job? John Wooden?

I believe this fear of Brohm leaving is a waste of forum space.

Heck. That would pay off Hazel and we'd make a little to boot: )
