Purdue can't afford to fire him even if they wanted to and nobody else is going to pay that large a salary for his recent results at Purdue. Barring something scandalous, he's going to be there at least another couple seasons. And unless those seasons are either extremely good.....or extremely bad.....he'll probably be there another couple seasons beyond that.

Because momentum in both recruiting and progress in each program is going in opposite directions and losing a top flight in-state recruit with Purdue ties to a rival school who historically hasn't recruited all that way would not have been a good look. 1 hour ago, XStar said: Given his contract, I'm not sure what you expect to happen.

The honeymoon for Brohm ended a long time ago and it seems like season after season of continued mediocrity in WLF. Brohm is not the wizard offensive mind many thought he was and his defenses are as bad as they were expected to be. After a quick start, recruiting has settled into a mid BT place , better than Hazell but not the promise that the early classes offered. Honestly, I think Brohm will get bored with this job. I think he will move on and his next gig, despite his lackluster PU record, will either be a very high profile college job (UCLA/Oregon/Arizona State/Penn State/Miami FL) or an Assistant Head Coach/Offensive Coordinator job in the NFL.

DumfriesYMCA Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Hypothetical…..lol brebeuf and Gibson Southern meet in the playoffs does Joe take it easy on Brady allen if he has a chance at a sack? Or does he show him how practice is going to be at Purdue for the next 3+ Years I kid I kid….it’s great to see Joe commit to Purdue. I’ve seen for a few years that he has been training with Robert Mathis and look forward to seeing him on Saturdays with Brady in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flipped an awful program to two straight bowl games his first two years then had two years of unprecedented injuries/Covid. Was he perfect, no. Is he actually currently on a hot seat? Absolutely not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has another 4-8, 5-7 type season he most certainly should/will be on the hot seat. You don’t pay a coach $6mil/yr to go sub .500 three consecutive years. Don’t care what the circumstances are.

"Momentum" is as good as your next game, changes all the time, and is way overrated. After 2018, Purdue had all the momentum in the series. IU has it now. None of that really matters going forward. One verbal commitment doesn't change a thing in that regard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One injury-ravaged season in 2019 and a worthless, covid-ruined 2020 with a huge mistake at DC that has since been taken care of. It hasn't been good since 2018 but his contract is too good for him to walk away from, too much for another school to want to match right now, and too much/long for Purdue to buy it out. He's not going anywhere in the next 15 months whether anyone wants it or not, and as a Purdue fan I can only speak for myself but I don't. It's not like we're not even in games like the Hazell era. Let Hagen improve the defense. Let the offensive line mature. Stay healthy. Win some of the close games that have gone the other way (like Minnesota and the PI call last year) and things will be fine. No need to panic and overreact.

That momentum from the Strickland commitment propelled Purdue to an 8-win season and made IU go winless in conference. Just imagine if he had chosen IU and all that momentum went the other way. IU may well have been playing in the upcoming BTCG for a spot in the playoffs. #LEO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
