It all adds up to credibility. The Big Ten to like Brohm's decision to stay put. The conference to like the high level of coaching in the division. By the way, I'm still not sure how to rank the head coaches. After all, Frost was the consensus national coach of the year in 2017, but in June the Sporting News ranked him as the No. 8 head coach in the conference, a spot ahead of Brohm.
Chryst obviously has had a tough year at Wisconsin (7-5, 5-4 Big Ten), but he's 41-12 at the school, including 27-8 in the Big Ten.
