Louisville is hiring alumnus Jeff Brohm as its next football coach, multiple outlets reported Wednesday.

Brohm, the head coach at Purdue the past six seasons, long has been a target for Louisville. He turned down the job in 2019 when Louisville hired Scott Satterfield, and now he is set to replace Satterfield, who moved on to Cincinnati.
