If Purdue's current coach was from Manhattan, KS and went to KSU, would he currently leave Purdue for louisville? Almost certainly, no.
Rumors of Brohm to louisville lie solely on the fact that he is from there and went there. While enticing, I doubt that's all he ultimately wants in life- to coach football at louisville. If his goal is to one day coach on a premier stage, he can use the Purdue gig to get him to that stage. He doesn't need to go to louisville from Purdue to get there. Most people want to take the easiest and most direct route to get where they want to go. Adding a stop at louisville only complicates the logistics of his ultimate destination. Why go through the hassle of buyouts, moving, switching kids' schools, acclimating, buying and selling houses, etc. if he knows he's going to do it again in a couple more years anyway? Add in the fact that Purdue is at least as good of a job already, if not better, than louisville, and I would be shocked if he left Purdue to go to louisville- it just doesn't make much sense.
That’s exactly what he wants to do is coach football at Louisville. Stewart Mandel talked about this in one of his mailbags. He’s not a guy looking to coach at the top place in cfb. He’s looking to be at one place for a long time. It’s basically Purdue or Louisville for him.
