Louisville football fans put all their eggs in the Jeff Brohm basket and for the most part the team delivered last year. The offense hit some potholes, the defense was better than most would have imagined and though the season’s end wasn’t what was desired overall you can’t argue too much with the final win/loss record. But, did the new coach and crew along with a rejuvenated fan base walk into a self-made trap of expecting not only a repeat but a full-blown dynasty to arrive?

Special guest, Jody Demling, the publisher of Cardinal Authority joins us to talk about how the talent and depth chart has improved but there’s this little thing called a schedule that may create some problems this season. There’s not doubt about the improvement and Demling details it from the offense, defense, special teams and his thoughts on that aforementioned schedule.

Brohm

There are some absolute gems on the depth chart including Tyler Shough, Donald Chaney, Ahmari Huggins-Bruce, Ashton Gillotte, Quincy Riley and more. The key to success on offense will be the line and everything after that is whipped cream with a cherry on top. The defense returns many of the players that led the Cardinals to be No.1 in the ACC against the run and No. 1 in the nation in red zone defense. Can Jeff Brohm deliver again this season?
