There was a possiblity of Brohm coming over from Lousiville, he was a QB under HS. He would of been a good pickup since he knows the system and has OC experience. They are probably dumping him since the ville is apparently moving to the spread.
Im sure we didnt get him due to pay scale. No way is FAU able to match Big East pay.
Its a bit of a gamble but it will cause a minimum of disruption as hes been at FAU for 2 years, and was recievers coach at ASU for a few before that. This is his first OC opportunity.

AT FAU
Joined Florida Atlantic's staff in the spring of 2007 and was introduced to a young receiving core that became even younger with the loss of the team's leading receiver prior to camp. As the season progressed, he not only had one of the team's strongest assets, but saw redshirt sophomore Cortez Gent develop into a big-play threat. Gent concluded the season with nine 2007 touchdowns, which ties FAU's single-season mark. Gent also ended his sophomore campaign second in single-season yards, in 12 games compared to the record holder's 14 games. During the season, five receivers were used consistently and 16 players were credited with a catch. The group teamed with quarterback Rusty Smith for 33 touchdowns, which also broke the single-season touchdown record for a quarterback. Gent earned first team All-Sun Belt honors as did tight end Jason Harmon.
At Arizona State
Jackson served as Arizona State's wide receiver coach from 2001-2006 and was part of head coach Dirk Koetter's original ASU staff. Jackson accompanied Koetter from Boise State where he also tutored the receivers from 1997-2000.
In his role, Jaskson oversaw one of the key elements in Koetter's high-octane offensive attacks, which was ranked in the nation's top-five during the 2004 and 2005 seasons. In his six seasons with ASU, Jackson guided two of the top receivers in ASU's history. In fact Derek Hagan concluded his career as ASU's all-time leader in receptions (258), receiving yards (3,939) and touchdowns receptions (27) and 100-yard receiving games (18). Hagan was a two-time semifinalst for the Biletnikoff award, the second to be considered for the award, and was a first-team All-Pac-10 selection. Jackson worked with four All-Pac-10 selections during his tenure with ASU.
At Boise State
Jackson joined Koetter's staff in 1998 after then Boise State head coach Houston Nutt left for Arkansas. Jackson kept his title when joining Koetter's staff. The 2000 team featured five players averaging over 16.5 yards/catch, while the team finished with over 3,500 total passing yards.
During the 1999 season, the Broncos finished second in the conference in passing offense, averaging better than 250 yards per game.
At Indiana State
Before coming to Boise state, Jackson was an assistant coach at Indiana State University from 1995-97. A 1992 graduate of the University of San Diego, Jackson was a four-year starter in the defensive backfield. He was named the team's Defensive Player of the year as a senior.
At Redlands
During the 1994 season, Jackson tutored all conference running back Matt Figuerea and second team all-conference player Anthony Jones.
At University of San Diego
Worked with the defensive backs and running backs during his tenure.
With the NFL
Guiding his career much like he would guide his receivers, Jackson also worked on his game by serving two internships with the NFL. In 2003, Jackson served as an intern and coach with the Detroit Lions as part of the National Football League's Minority Internship Program, while in 1999 he served in the same capacity with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Past or Present Professional Players Coached
Ryan Dennard (Arizona Rattlers), Skyler Fulton (Seattle Seahawks), Derek Hagan (Miami Dolphins), Shaun McDonald (St. Louis Rams), Justin Taplin (Arizona Rattlers), Jeb Putzier (Denver Broncos)
As a Player
Jackson was a four-year starter in the defensive backfield at the University of San Diego. He was named the team's Defensive Player of the Year as a senior.

He started coaching when our OC was 13 years old and I am very happy with Neal brown's first year as OC. I hope he does well next year except one game.

Same way Neal Brown became OC at Troy. I hope he has good play-calling abilities.

Its an ok hire IMHO. Daryl knows the system and has done a great job with our Recievers.
Who all was in the running for the job? Who would have been your personal pick?
There was a possiblity of Brohm coming over from Lousiville, he was a QB under HS. He would of been a good pickup since he knows the system and has OC experience. They are probably dumping him since the ville is apparently moving to the spread.
Im sure we didnt get him due to pay scale. No way is FAU able to match Big East pay.
Its a bit of a gamble but it will cause a minimum of disruption as hes been at FAU for 2 years, and was recievers coach at ASU for a few before that. This is his first OC opportunity.
Well we may get Brohm after all as QB coach....
http://weblogs.sun-sentinel.com/sports/college/fau/blog/2009/02/fau_to_promote_jackson_and_hir.html
A report from our blogger states that Brohm may very well be coming to FAU as QB coach. Our former OC, Gary Nord was both OC and QB coach and our new OC will keep his position as recievers coach as well.
Brohm has a very nice resume, and it would be a VERY nice catch if FAU can land him. Copy and paste below for some of his accomplishments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
BROHM STILL COMING??
And remember how I said Jeff Brohm was on the list for the OC job? Well, guess who might become FAU’s QB coach?
The same Jeff Brohm. That would be a huge get for Howard and the program.
I have heard this from quite a few sources and it looks likely, though I haven’t quite nailed it down. Should be finalized very soon.
Brohm has quite a resume. He was a three-year starter at QB for Louisville when Howard coached there. He then played in the NFL from 1994 to 2000
Not a bad guy to add to the staff. And something only The Voice could pull off.
Brohm was Louisville’s OC in 2008, but has been left dangling since the end of the season by coach Steve Kragthorpe, who has refused to state what Brohm's role with the team will be going forward.
It seems clear Kragthorpe doesn't want Brohm, but he knows he can’t outright fire him, because Brohm is part of a clan that is ingrained in Louisville football and are fan favorites.
Jeff threw passes to his brother Greg, a wide receiver at Louisville who is now director of football operations, and then Jeff coached his little borther Brian when Brian was QB for the Cards before moving to the NFL.
And the three Brohm boys were brought up by dad Oscar Brohm, who played QB at Louisville and coached his sons when they were at Trinity High.
So Jeff Brohm has been looking for a new job, and it looks like it will be in Boca Raton, where he
RE: FAU Hires OC from within... - CardinalBlackTrojan - 02-09-2009 03:26 PM
I read about some of this on the Big East board. Some say he might go to Eastern Michigan as OC. That would be a big hire by FAU to get Brohm though. Kragthorpe at Louisville is an idiot for firing the guy! They averaged 35 ppg in 2007! It's just that their defense has sucked terribly since Kragthorpe arrived.

Huge hire! There have been some nice hirings around the Sun Belt this off-season with Tony Franklin OC at MTSU and now Jeff Brohm at FAU! Way to go Owls!

Official FAU press release.
http://fausports.cstv.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/020909aaa.html
With the profliferation of the spread offense in FBS, one has to wonder about all those pure passers out there.
With Brohm haivng inroads to Kentucky ( I hear there are some good QB's in that area) and HS sticking to the pro style offense could FAU become the new Quarterback U?
A dream to be sure, but hell thats what the offseason is for.
GO OWLS!

The FAU contingent may have jumped the gun on the hiring of Brohm.
