The current coach has Diego Pavia. I would not under estimate his impact.
New coach
- Thread starter NOYDB
- Start date
That's a highly plausible take, IMO. I bet Kraft made a lot of calls in this vein. It's a low-pressure way of kicking the tires on the most accomplished coaches out there. Ex: Meyer and Saban. And if the convo turns to them being interested, then you explore it.
And he very well could be going to the playoffs, further complicating the ability or willingness we have to completely destroy our recruiting and portal classes on the hope and prayer he says yes. Personally, I do not think he or Elko are worth that gamble.
One recruiting class in exchange for the right head coach is a trade off you make everyday and twice on Sundays.
That’s especially true in the portal era where the right guy will be an immediate magnet for transfers who are likely more ready to contribute.
Brohm is a smart guy and is making 6 million dollars that could move to 13 million at PSU. He also understands that the ACC is a one bid league (most years)! The highest ranked team that was released last night from the ACC, wasn’t in the top 12.
Don’t count out the motivation to be one of the highest paid coaches AND be able to compete every year for a championship. It’s not going to happen at UL.
Exactly, the most overrated, over-talked about aspect is where a coach grew up or went to college, or that he’s at his Alma mater. I don’t think any of that matters much. The Alma mater thing didn’t do Scott frost any favors. I don’t know why Brohm would be unattainable just because he’s at Louisville. Going from Purdue to Louisville is understandable, but when PSU offers, I don’t know how strong that loyalty would be to just turn an opportunity like that down ?
PS has 1 playoff appearance in the last 40 years. Not like they have been a playoff machine like some other programs. If the CFP had not made the "Penn State Expansion" last year we would not have made even that one.
You guys should get your head out of HV every now and then. It ain't the Camelot you think it is.
If he makes the playoffs definitely, but the last CFP rankings have Louisville at 15 which could leave Louisville out of the CFP. If that is the case, then it may be a catalyst for Brohm to consider a change.
The 12 team playoff has been going for 1 year DA, not 40 years. The BCS crap and 4 team playoff system is over if you haven’t been paying attention..
PSU is 1 for 1 on the new system.. moving to 50% in a couple months
The playoffs did not start forty years ago, which means that they would've started in 1985. In fact, they started in 2014. What's more is if they had started forty years ago and just included four teams, PSU would've qualified in 1985, 1986, 1991, 1994, 2005, and possibly 2008, which is more than one time.

And that means exactly jack-shiit.
You act as if PS had some great historical playoff/championship tradition like Bama, OK, OSU...... when quite the opposite is true.
Bowl Alliance era - 0 title appearances
BCS era - 0 title appearances
4 team CFP era - 0 title appearances
12 team watered down CFP era - 0 title appearances
We are the laughingstock of CFB, yet there is an idiotic notion that no one would dare even consider refusing the HC job here. No personal reason for refusing exists that money will not change.
For you fools that consider it the best job open right now - you are due for a big dose of reality.
I saw a really nice private jet take off from State College yesterday headed W/SW- who’s on Flight Tracker these days?
There was one from State College to Cobb County GA outside of Atlanta the other day.
Well, that could be a Key development...
Seriously, if that flight involved Key, and that jet went into Kennesaw, it makes sense. Don't know where Key lives, but the northern Atlanta suburbs would be a good bet.
In 2025, I would imagine initial interviews are zoom rather than in person. Perhaps second or third interviews are in person.Well, that could be a Key development...

That's the only thing that will be completed by air if they hire KeyWell, that could be a Key development...

Or it could just have been a good excuse for someone to get in a round of golf. The weather down here has been gorgeous this week. Temps in the 60s earlier this week, low 70s today. Not a cloud in the sky. The real head scratcher for me is why Key would want to leave Georgia. Money ain't everything.
A friend of mine didn’t want to move to Milwaukee but he got a significant promotion, compensation and it aligned with his career goals and objectives.
Maybe he doesn't like 90-100 degree days during the summer? Main reason I'd never move south. I'm taking cold over heat everyday.
