Purdue’s Jeff Brohm shares proposal for spring season with a Jim Harbaugh influence

Purdue head football coach Jeff Brohm wants to play football whenever it is safe to do so and has shared a spring proposal for making a season happen in the spring. It also includes some Jim Harbaugh flavor for good measure.

Brohm proposes that preseason training camp would begin in mid-January ahead of an eight-week season that would start in late February and end in May. To give players time to adequately heal and train, he says that the 2021 fall season should not start until October.

Brohm’s proposal has the teams playing six games within the division and making sure that the schedule is skewed early on to where the teams more south would be hosting these matchups to start the season.
