WKU commits' trust in Brohm deepens after coach sticks with program

Western Kentucky commit Jeremy Darvin couldn't escape questions about the job speculation surrounding Jeff Brohm during the 2015 season.

"Everybody knew it," said Darvin, a three-star defensive tackle from Father Ryan High School in Nashville. "I had a few family friends who weren't even into football, and they were asking me, 'Is the coach leaving?' All I could say was, 'I have no idea. It's up to him.' "

Darvin wasn't the only Hilltopper prospect wondering whether or not Brohm was headed for a new destination.

But like WKU's other 21 recruits who've given a verbal commitment to the program, Darvin breathed a sigh of relief when Brohm began making public commitments to the university toward the end of the season.
