When thinking of the hottest coaches on demand, Bobby Petrino, in just his second year, is no stranger to the list. Watching the Cards perform offensively this past fall was something to behold. The starting focus to any discussion about 2005 Louisville begins at QB where the highly touted Brian Brohm is replacing Stefan LeFors and his 75% completion rate. A local boy from nearby Trinity High School, Brohm was named the USA Today National Offensive Player of the Year and was one of the top recruits to ever sign at Louisville. With that said, we saw glimpses of his promise in a tight fourth quarter on the road at Miami with the game on the line as he replaced a weary LeFors. He's proved that he's got the guts to match his potential greatness. Between Clark, Tinch and Jones, no QB could ask for a better set of receivers. The defense severely lacks an all-American type(s), so much so that picking a 'defensive star' (as seen above) was difficult. Louisville joins the Big East officially in 2005. Louisville will be the favorite to win the conference. That will become official in August.
