Brohm seems like an interesting enough coach, and any coaching hire is basically a dice roll, but it's striking to look at Brohm's resume compared to say, Butch Jones's before he went to Tennessee. I definitely get being underwhelmed, although at this point unless you convinced Gundy or Miles to take the money that was probably an inevitability. Brohm is a better pick, if higher variance, than Schiano though.

Not a fan of potential Brohm hire?

Not to speak for GB, but I'll bet he's talking about Miles.

no i was talking about brohm

After I left here I saw the same post in a Vol forum, and assumed it was you.

I think the same thing would probably apply to Miles.

Brohm won six games this year at Purdue. the previous coach only won nine in four years. Definitely not my first choice, but at this point anyone with promise looks good.

Brohm to be announced shortly as UT coach, per Jimmy Hyams.

well pump the breaks. not a done deal LOL

Just reading this thread has made me dislike U. of Tennessee

Brohm could flame out, but he did a terrific job at WKU and turned Purdue, perhaps the most garbage program in the entire Power 5 save Kansas, into a bowl team overnight. For a big program, ideally you'd have liked to see what he would do for at least one more year at Purdue, but I think he'll do well. I was eyeing him as a potential Brian Kelly replacement down the line if he kept winning.

UT better not poach my coach.

I have my doubts UT can poach an egg.
