Report: Jeff Brohm tells Louisville bosses he is not exploring other options

Louisville head coach Jeff Brohm is not going anywhere this coaching cycle, according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel. He made it clear to the administration. On3’s Pete Nakos confirmed the report.

“Sources: Louisville football coach Jeff Brohm has communicated to his bosses that he’s not exploring any other jobs and is committed to Louisville,” Thamel wrote on Twitter. Brohm returned to his alma mater in 2023.

Nakos previously reported Brohm could’ve been in play at Florida, along with Washington’s Jedd Fisch, Vanderbilt’s Clark Lea and Tulane’s Jon Sumrall. Lea ended up signing a contract extension and Sumrall accepted the job from the Gators.

Brohm is now 27-12 at Louisville in three seasons, pending the team’s bowl game this year. They went 10-4 during his first year in 2023 and made the ACC Championship, a 16-6 loss to Florida State.

Brohm came over from Purdue, where he turned things around in West Lafayette. He went 36-34 with the Boilermakers and led them to the Big Ten championship game in 2022.

Brohm began his head coaching career in college at Western Kentucky, going 30-10 in three seasons and won back to back Conference USA titles. A former QB at Louisville, in the NFL and the infamous first version of the XFL, Brohm began coaching in 2002.

He coached the Louisville Fire of the AF2, the minor league of the original Arena Football League. Brohm returned to his alma mater in 2003 as the quarterbacks coach and worked his way up to assistant coach by 2008. In 2009, Brohm moved to Florida Atlantic to be the QBs coach and did the same thing at Illinois from 2010-11.

Brohm was also the offensive coordinator and QBs coach at UAB in 2012 before finding his way to Western Kentucky in 2013, eventually working up to head coach. As it stands now, he’ll be staying at Louisville for the foreseeable future and look to get them back into ACC contention in 2026.
