Louisville coach Jeff Brohm turned down overtures from Penn State on Wednesday to remain with the Cardinals, sources tell Sports Illustrated.<\/p>\n
After the Nittany Lions were rebuffed by BYU\u2019s Kalani Sitake<\/a> 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.<\/p>\n More than 50 days after firing James Franklin<\/a>, 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.<\/p>\n FREE. SI College Football Newsletter.

Brohm is believed to be more interested in NIL resources than anything else.<\/p>\n The 54-year-old Louisville graduate and native just completed his third season at the school with an 8\u20134 record, capped by a 41\u20130 rout of rival Kentucky. Brohm\u2019s overall record with the Cardinals is 27\u201312, the most wins in a three-year span for a Louisville coach since Bobby Petrino from 2004 to \u201906.<\/p>\n More College Football from Sports Illustrated<\/p>\n Listen to SI\u2019s new college sports podcast,\u00a0Others Receiving Votes, below or on\u00a0Apple<\/a> and\u00a0Spotify<\/a>.
