The Western Kentucky football program announced Wednesday that Greg Brohm, brother of WKU head coach Jeff Brohm, has joined the Hilltoppers as director of football operations.

Greg Brohm comes to the Hill after two years as a teacher and football coach at Thomas Nelson High School in Bardstown, where he started the football program.

Brohm spent five seasons as the director of football operations at Louisville after a year as president of the Louisville Fire of the Arena2 Football League. During his time at Louisville, Brohm spent three years as the DFO under former Hilltopper coach Bobby Petrino when the Cardinals won a Conference USA and Big East Championship, went to three bowl games and twice finished in the Associated Press Top 10.

While at Louisville, Brohm was responsible for day-to-day operations of the program, including travel, camp and bowl organization. Brohm also played roles in game management, budgeting, football scheduling, implementation of football marketing campaigns, rules compliance and donor relations.

With the Fire, he was responsible for all the day-to-day football operations, including corporate sales, marketing and personnel decisions. He also served as the offensive coordinator on the coaching staff.

Brohm, who graduated from Louisville with a bachelor’s degree in 1993, was a four-year letterwinner and three-year starter for the Cardinals from 1988-92 under coach Howard Schnellenberger. He was a starter for the 1991 Fiesta Bowl championship team as a receiver, catching passes from his brother, Jeff.
