Louisville coach Jeff Brohm turned down overtures from Penn State on Wednesday to remain with the Cardinals, sources tell Sports Illustrated.
After the Nittany Lions were rebuffed by BYU’s Kalani Sitake on Tuesday, Brohm was presented with terms of a deal by Penn State. Agreeing to leave on the same day Brohm was signing a new freshman class with Louisville was not an attractive option, sources say.
More than 50 days after firing James Franklin, the Penn State search is still an ongoing affair as the school has been turned down by a number of candidates. Sources say former New York Giants coach Brian Daboll, who was fired from that job last month, could be an option. In addition to extensive NFL experience, Daboll previously was the offensive coordinator at Alabama under Nick Saban.

Brohm and Louisville athletic director Josh Heird have been in talks in recent weeks about reworking his contract and other program enhancements. Brohm is believed to be more interested in NIL resources than anything else.
The 54-year-old Louisville graduate and native just completed his third season at the school with an 8–4 record, capped by a 41–0 rout of rival Kentucky. Brohm’s overall record with the Cardinals is 27–12, the most wins in a three-year span for a Louisville coach since Bobby Petrino from 2004 to ’06.

The Chiefs will play their sixth primetime game of the year when they host the Texans at 8:20 p.m. ET on Sunday night. Kansas City has owned this rivalry recently, winning each of the last five matchups, which includes a pair of playoff games. Kansas City is a 3.5-point favorite, according to the latest NFL odds from FanDuel Sportsbook, and the over/under is 41.5.
The Under is a combined 17-7 for the two teams this season, and it’s been especially favorable over the last few weeks. Six of the last seven Chiefs games have gone under the total. Meanwhile, the Under is 5-1 over the last six Texans games. Houston owns the NFL’s No. 1 scoring defense, while Kansas City ranks seventh, so a low-scoring game could be in order.

It’s been one of the busiest coaching carousels in recent memory, and as the calendar turns to December, Penn State is the top program with an opening remaining. The Nittany Lions fired James Franklin back on Oct. 12 with an eye on getting ahead of the carousel, but they’ll be making a hire later than programs like LSU, Florida, Auburn, Arkansas and Virginia Tech, where Franklin ultimately landed.
There have been several public rejections with names like Matt Rhule, Curt Cignetti and Kalani Sitake all agreeing to new deals with their respective schools in the midst of being rumored Penn State candidates. Where do the Nittany Lions turn now? If you love the Nittany Lions, or just want to know who will be calling the shots for Penn State in the future, be sure to see what the proven team of experts are saying at Lions247.

One name the staff has identified as a potential target on the Penn State football coaching hot board is Louisville head coach Jeff Brohm. The former Louisville and NFL quarterback returned to his alma mater as the head coach in 2023 after previous stints as the head coach at Western Kentucky and Purdue.
In total, Brohm is 93-56 as a head coach, though his ACC record at Louisville has gotten worse each of the past three seasons. The Cardinals looked like playoff contenders after a 7-1 start this season, but they lost three straight after that. They did bounce back with a dominant 41-0 win over rival Kentucky last week, however.
“Across his career, Brohm carries four victories versus top-five opponents,” Donohue wrote. “That success includes three top-five wins at Purdue over No. 2 Ohio State (2018), No. 2 Iowa (2021) and No. 3 Michigan State (2021). Brohm produced a 36-34 record in six seasons with the Boilermakers, reaching eight regular-season wins in each of his last two seasons with a 2022 Big Ten West title. Neither his predecessor nor successor at Purdue surpassed four wins.” See more candidates at Lions247.
The rest of the list includes several other exciting possibilities, including multiple coaches who currently have their team in the College Football Playoff mix. You can only see who it is by joining Lions247.

POPULAR SEARCHES <br> BROWSE BY <br><strong>Question:</strong> What <a href="https://www.foxsports.com/motor/indycar" class="entity">NTT INDYCAR SERIES</a> news item are you still most eager to have announced?<br><strong>Curt Cavin:</strong> Maybe we know more about the Indianapolis 500 lineup than I realize, but it still seems we have a lot to learn. Specifically, it’s the one-offs from a host of teams. For example, will <a href="https://www.foxsports.com/motor/helio-castroneves-2-driver" class="entity">Helio Castroneves</a> (photo, top) be back in a Meyer Shank Racing car? Is <a href="https://www.foxsports.com/motor/ed-carpenter-driver" class="entity">Ed Carpenter</a> taking another shot at a place on the Borg-Warner Trophy? What about <a href="https://www.foxsports.com/motor/takuma-sato-driver" class="entity">Takuma Sato</a> and the Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing pairing? What’s happening with Andretti Global’s fourth car? Is it <a href="https://www.foxsports.com/motor/colton-herta-driver" class="entity">Colton Herta</a> or someone else? What about Dreyer & Reinbold Racing’s second seat? Is PREMA Racing good to go? And, of course, we’re still waiting on Dale Coyne Racing to announce its second full-season driver. A lot of gifts still to be unwrapped in this holiday season.<br><strong>Eric Smith: </strong>For me, it’s all about the new car. Series president J. Douglas Boles provided an update on the 2028 chassis during the IMS oval test in late October, noting that team owners and managers were recently shown an updated look at the design. A public unveiling is expected before the end of the first quarter of 2026, with a physical car to follow soon after. The series introduced the DW12 for the 2012 season, updated it with the current UAK package in 2018 and added the Aeroscreen in 2020. The 2028 chassis will represent the next major evolution.<br><strong>Arni Sribhen:</strong> While Curt is curious about the field for the Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge, I’m more curious about the field of full-time drivers for the 2026 season. As of today, Dale Coyne Racing still has a chartered race seat available, and the status of PREMA Racing is likely to be decided soon as well. The names associated with the seat alongside <a href="https://www.foxsports.com/motor/dennis-hauger-driver" class="entity">Dennis Hauger</a> at Dale Coyne’s team have been interesting to say the least. Will the longtime INDYCAR team owner opt for a veteran to pair alongside the 2025 INDY <a href="https://www.foxsports.com/motor/indy-nxt" class="entity">NXT</a> by Firestone champ? Or will he opt for another newcomer? Should PREMA return, both <a href="https://www.foxsports.com/motor/callum-ilott-driver" class="entity">Callum Ilott</a> and <a href="https://www.foxsports.com/motor/robert-shwartzman-2-driver" class="entity">Robert Shwartzman</a> are expected to be back in the field. It all adds up to the 2026 full-time lineup being one of the most competitive in series history.<br><strong>Paul Kelly:</strong> I'm very curious about the new look of INDYCAR officiating. Series President J. Douglas Boles is on the record as saying changes are coming for the 2026 season, with an independent officiating board likely. I wonder from where those officials will come, whether the group will be overseen by governing bodies like the FIA or ACCUS and how the new direction of INDYCAR officiating might affect competition in both the NTT INDYCAR SERIES and INDY NXT by Firestone. Interesting times ahead, for sure.<br><br><a href="https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMijwFBVV95cUxOeWItU2NxYm9UaHhmZHhhcU1kZGJQamtlZkdEd1dxa0ZQUkZDMEJIWXg2Q1F1T09ZSDdEUDNfVkxmbHRhN3FOMTZjQlZQQkJ2UDZDQ3A1cUxXY2NfSGlSMFkyZXdRLXZSeFZBZXRoZEFZcnJGUWdKUUdrTm94VkQtVk12RXBRaEFvNHcxMFNCZw?oc=5">source</a>
