It’s official. After playing footsie with Louisville for his entire 6 year tenure at Purdue, Jeff Brohm has resigned as the head coach of the Boilermakers and will return to Louisville to coach his alma mater.
At Purdue, Brohm went a combined 36-34, making four bowl appearances in six seasons. Brohm leaves Purdue as the 5th winningest coach in program history, behind Joe Tiller (87) Jack Mollenkopf (84), Noble Kizer (42) and Jim Young (38). He took over the program after the disastrous tenure of Darrell Hazell and pulled the Boilermakers out of the Big Ten basement and back to respectability.
