Brohm had a 36-34 record in 70 games as the Boilermaker head coach, leading Purdue to three bowl games after taking over in 2017. This season, Brohm led Purdue to its first-ever appearance in the Big Ten Championship Game, but lost to Michigan 43-22 in Indianapolis.
Purdue joins Nebraska and Wisconsin among Big Ten teams that will have new leadership next season. The Huskers hired Matt Rhule as their new head coach on Nov. 26, and the Badgers announced Luke Fickell as their new head coach on Nov. 27
