4 B1G assistants, former interim HC on list of potential replacements for Jeff Brohm at Purdue
Published:
Jeff Brohm is going to be leaving Purdue for his alma mater Louisville. Following the news, Lafayette Journal and Carrier’s Sam King produced a list of potential replacements for Brohm.
The Boilermakers could make an inside hire to fill the head coaching position. This could be the case for current Co-DC’s Ron English and Mark Hagen. English was the HC at Eastern Michigan from 2009-2013.
Other potential candidates include former Wisconsin interim HC Jim Leonhard, Illinois DC Ryan Walters, and Ohio State WR coach Brian Hartline.
Leonhard announced that he won’t be returning to Wisconsin’s staff after the Guaranteed Rate Bowl vs. Oklahoma State. Hartline and Walters have more than proved they can handle themselves as assistants, but don’t have any HC experience.
Brohm played at Louisville in college from 1989-2003. Brohm was also an assistant on the team’s staff in the early 2000s.
