Brohm wants an interview with auburn

Perhaps, but for those of us here in southern Indiana they know of which I speak. I remember meeting my first group of friends in Bloomington and, upon hearing the accent, kept asking where I was from. My response, “I’m from southern Indiana, where the f**k are you from?”
Anyway, good times.
Same here. When I moved South they called me Yankee. At IU they called me southern among other things. Huge grin! I'm from Vanderburg county. Dad is from Warrick. Go Hoosiers!
It is amazing when you get outside of the northern suburbs of Indy how quickly the accent picks up. Indy was described as "broadcast standard" or net neutral accent I don't know of that is the case any longer.
Show me where Brohm seriously entertained that job. Everything I've heard after the fact was Brohm wasn't leaving because he didn't want to leave the guys he brought in after making promises.
Brohm 100% met with Louisville and had serious interest in the job. Due to the buyout Louisville owed Petrino on top of the Pitino's litigation into the $40 million they potential owe him, they couldn't agree to terms. Brohm and Tyra (Lousiville AD) are very good friends. No chance Brohm strayed him along.
I'm suggesting there isn't any concrete proof that it happened and I've seen reports where it was made out to be more than it was.
Not only did they meet, Louisville had an actual contract and figures for him, but didn't come anywhere close to what Purdue was willing to match/offer. I believe their offer was in the mid $4mil/yr range but a significantly less in pool money for assistants. That and he wanted an excessive term length as Louisville was a major rebuild. Louisville didn't have the money as evident to Satterfield getting just north of $3mil/yr.

Clark county, right across the moat from the @ville. I have also lived in eastern Kentucky and southeastern Virginia. Yankee in the last two places and southern at IU (in supposedly southern Indiana, lol). The Louisville metro area, or Indiuky/SunnysideofLouisville has its own dialect. Only place I’ve ever been normal.

Ok, but how did you do because the expectation is that you would beat Nick Saban consistently.....
I beat Nick Saban all the time. Just had to change all the coach's names to be Nick Saban

Good enough, you're hired.
And I want to win tonight's Mega Millions Drawing. My odds are better than his.

The rumor was he met with them in person to say no because he respected the university. I mean, if you want to go that route, might as well say he said no to Tennessee the year before. Must not be a bad coach then.
I thought your claim was that there was no concrete proof that he even met with him?
I apologize. I misspoke. I should have said concrete proof he wanted the job.
Neither you nor any of us actually know how things went down and it honestly doesn’t matter. I’m sure it wasn’t easy telling UL no but he did. That’s all the matters.
Yeah, let's hope they don't look at him. I like him staying at Purdue, particularly if word gets out he's looking.
A) somebody down there has a great sense of humor ((or a Really warped one))🙈😉
B) K. Steele wants the powers that be to remember what his D did to the not-so-mighty toy train engineers (and talked a pal on the search committee into it) 🤣🤣
C) somebody down there actually knows Brohmardi and is just screwing with him by feeding his Legend in His Own Mind ego🙉
D) somebody down there hates the p u AD😷🙊
E) All of the Above 🤣🙉🤣
