Rookie Hilltoppers coach Jeff Brohm hopes that knowledge of the team's personnel and his offensive expertise as the coordinator last season under Bobby Petrino help WKU follow up an 8-4 finish with its second bowl bid in three years.
Brohm replaced Petrino in January after Petrino returned to Louisville for a second stint as head coach. He retains a pass-oriented strategy as well as senior quarterback Brandon Doughty, continuity necessary for WKU's move from the Sun Belt Conference to Conference USA.
The Hilltoppers' focus this spring has been finding a successor to all-purpose running back Antonio Andrews, something that Brohm hopes to achieve with Saturday's Red-White scrimmage.
