@jimmy-v This year I remember going to Indiana game and they didn't even fill the visitors seats in the upper deck above the north endzone
Just to be realistic, no coach at Miami has done chit in football in the last 25 years with the exception of a couple one off years, and Duke, well if it weren't for basketball, nobody would know that university exist. My point is, it's hard to knock Manny for records at those two schools, and he has done alright relativity speaking the the program and circumstances. That doesn't mean I think he is the HC to come in, but could do a lot worse and nothing would surprise at this time with how the new HC will be. Bottom line, it needs to be somebody who really wants to be at PSU and not someone who is just chasing the bag.
And, if they give a 10 year contract with a ridiculous buy out, then someone should be fired immediately. Next coach should get a 3-5 year contract and then yearly extensions based on merit/metrics with a significant annual bonus that exemplifies success, and not based on f'ing potential for the next year.
And so we have Brohm
QB in NFL, that is a plus for a school that has not developed QB's.
26-25 in B10 play when coach at Purdon't. Not bad. 2nd and 1st in the B10 Weak Division his last 2 years before going home to Lousiville. OK at Louisville 16-6 in ACC. Clearly a weak conference but still OK.
I would put him above Manny and see if he would like to keep our current Defensive Coordinator. Up to him. Small sample but we seem to have a history of avoiding coaches with PSU 'ties'.
How are they at recruiting and NIL? That is as important as X's and O's those Jimmies and Joes.

You left out some of the other good points about him and 2 stand out.
1. he has a more recent win over OSU than PSU despite not coaching in the B1G since when?
2. 3-1 vs top 5 opponents.
