Word coming from BG is that he said he was waiting until today's game was over, before talking to other schools. Also heard multiple rumors that UVA was very interested in him. Who knows?

Virginia is no longer an option. Anyway, he'll get his chance to move up, or maybe he can stay at Western and see if he can build another Boise St.

He will not stay at WKU very long...but would never coach here...not for 10mil a year. The Brohms at Cardinals to the bone. Daddy Brohm would never allow it.

Brohm was bypassed for key openings for whatever reason(s). Maybe people weren't sure what he could do without Doughty. Guess we'll find out soon enough.

So your saying that one player is the reason why he is a good coach? As a play caller and calling the plays and developing the team has nothing to do with it?
Is Towells or Barker rated higher than Doughty? If so how did Doughty become the player that he is to be a one man wrecking crew for WKU?

I'm of the opinion that their coach is a damn fine coach and hired a good staff that develops players and puts them into a position to succeed. I'm quite sure their classes are not higher than ours is but they would mop the field with us. Why is that? Coaching players up, putting them into positions to succeed and calling the right plays to let them succeed.

Would love to see Brohm in blue and white. I dare say he would get us to at least the Brooks level and probably beyond. Don't believe it is likely to happen, though.

Doughty has played well for 3 or 4 years under different coaching staffs, so idk if all the credit can go to brohm or not.

Doughty is a 6th year SR QB. They also have 23 Sr on the team and play in conf usa. Just sayin'

That team your dogging would beat us by 30 points or more. Guys like you said the same thing after they beat us when Joker was the coach and then beat us again when Stoops got here. And just think they just got to Div 1 level a few years back. That program is taking off and leaving ours and mostly that is due to bringing in coaches.

I just looked at their staff... Their staff is far superior than ours is, much more experience and just top down better. They have a staff of a team that is SEC level. We have a staff that is sunbelt worthy.... maybe. Honestly it's not even that maybe OVC like UT Martin.
Our staff is horrid. Terrible hires.

I'm saying there's been a sh!tpot full of coaching openings and to date Brohm's been bypassed even though he's had a couple of gaudy seasons at WKU. My question is why?

What you say is so true. Give Brohm our roster, in the SEC, and his present supporters would want to tar an feather him. He does have one heck of a qb but I don't know how good he would be with our offensive line and faint hearted receivers.

I guarantee if we had the WKU staff we are preparing for a bowl game and I would bet that we are at least 7-5.

It has been reported that he has been asked for interviews but has turned them all down. Maybe he is waiting for Petrino to leave??? Who knows. Why do you think his success is based off him hop skipping about from job to job?

Maybe so but I think this might be a little "the grass is greener on the other side" guarantee. We'll never know.

I'm not saying his success is based off anything. I'm saying he's been bypassed, just wondering why. Maybe he can live on $650K, doesn't need $2-$3M. Maybe he likes WKU.

Well it is obvious his staff would of turned them around or benched them. How in the world can they take guys who are lesser talented players and making them much better than ours? The answer is simple but that simple answer is obviously wrecking the brains of those who keep blaming the players. Half their team is from Ky and the others hodge podged from here and their.

This year so far their class is ranked 70
2015- 102
2014- 78
2013- 91
2012- 76
2011- 91
2010- 90
2009- 105
2008- no ranking due to being in Div II


So you guys who are dogging them and our players are saying that the reason why they are better is due to them having more talent.
This is their classes since being a Div 1 team. They have played Div 1 for 7 years and passed us as a program in just 3 of those. This is not due to talent but coaching. Why do we have a staff that is horrid??? Is it because of Mitch or the head coach being too stupid to hire good assistants??

Now I've been told that only big time programs have good staffs and they are not wanting to come to a program like UK.... well look at WKU's staff. Experience all over it and they have competed at the highest levels of college football. Ours is HS and Juco level. Coaches make the players

But ya keep saying its the players.

I don't know if it's true but a friend of mine close to the UL program told me the Brohms had a falling out with Louisville . I'm thinking it had something to do with Petrinos first go around and UL sided with Petrino on the matter . Not that it's important , just sayin what I heard .

Based on the FACT they kicked our asre the last two times they played us. Take your blinders off. They are clearly better. Hell they even beat Vandy.
Kicked our arses? They beat our two worst teams in 20 years by a combined 10 points. They did beat us, but the point was whether they beat us by three touchdowns which is ludicrous. We have improved since 2013 and so they have they, and a game this year would probably be a tossup or a game whether Western wins 6 out of 10 time, every one being close.

Here are two groups of teams.

Group A pounded us by three touchdowns, or something close.

Georgia, Tennessee, and Mississippi State.

Group B did not pound us by three touchdowns, or something close.

ULL, South Carolina, Mizzou, Florida, UofL, EKU, Charlotte, Vandy, Auburn.

WKY is nowhere near as good any team that pounded us. They are much better than EKU and Charlotte, slightly better than UofLoL, Mizzou, South Carolina, and Vandy. Worse than Auburn, much worse than Florida.

Scuttle but around the bar today, after the ul game, was that they are hoping someone does try to by out Petrino and that they would negotiate to send him on his way. UL fans seemed unanimous that they'd take brohm and the cash and call it a day.

Jeff Brohm is a hell of a coach and will win wherever he ends up. No way it could be Lexington - that would be far too stressful a decision for Barney.

Kragthorpe hope fired Greg Brohm as director of fb ops. It is unlikely that Petrino and Brohm had issues while at UofL considering Petrino hired Brohm when he took over WKU.

Group B has teams that are pretty bad and others that are very good defensive teams but not good offensively.

Vandy, Florida and Mizzou have good D but sorry *** offense. Both Mizzou and sc would take losses to western this year.

You may not realize it but we played the worst of the worst this season. As bad a schedule in 30 years or more.

Another thing is UL is multi TD better than us. If they played that QB to start the game it would have been another ten or miss St score against us. They put up 38 on us no sweat we scored what 1 offensive TD on a full drive??

You can clump this together and that together but the fact is they are much better coached than us.

Those wins you are diminishing was 1 and 2 yrs removed from being a div II program.
That's damn sad on our part.
No matter how bad we were we should have beaten a school that had a Div II roster.

Agreed, but that wasn't my point. The point is that they aren't beating us by three touchdowns. I was simply retorting to a gross exaggeration. I will grant that they would have probably beaten us this year in six of ten games, and that's not acceptable.
