Jeff Brohm will be Louisville’s next head football coach

It’s finally happening.

Jeff Brohm will return to Louisville and become the 23rd different head coach in the history of the Cardinal football program.

A source tells Card Chronicle that Brohm’s agent and Louisville athletic director Josh Heird agreed in principle to terms late Tuesday night. Now, all that remains is for Brohm’s contract to be approved by the U of L board and by new president Kim Schatzel.

According to ESPN’s Chris Low, that deal is set to be for six years and in the range of $35 million.

An official announcement was expected to come on Friday, but that could happen as early as Thursday now that the cat is out of the bag.
