He didn't say anything like that, I think he was speaking to his optimism about the program as a whole. I think the more important thing is the approach to being asked about recruiting, and how he's addressing recruits regarding whether or not he stays or goes, I don't think Purdue would've landed the recruits they've landed if they didn't know for sure that the guy recruiting them was just going to pack up and leave. We'll just have to see what happens.
So ... Nick Saban retires after this year, and they decide to go after Brohm, but he’s not leaving Purdue because he assured a bunch of players that committed to him and signed to play for him?
Please. This is much more about your inability to understand how much the Louisville job and program means to Jeff Brohm than it is anything else. He’s a man of integrity, so he’s going to do the very best job he can for Purdue for as long as he is your coach. As a public figure, that includes saying all the right things when asked stupid questions by naive reporters about his loyalty to your program.
Jeff Brohm grew up a Louisville fan. His talents, as well as those of his father and brothers built this program. He came into his college years at the time when Howard Schnellenberger had built UofL football into a national program, capable of beating programs like Michigan State, Texas, and Alabama.
He’s not going to stay at Purdue when he has the opportunity to come to Louisville and complete Howard’s dream of winning a national championship here.
