National reports say Western Kentucky University is reaching out to a familiar name for its vacant football head coaching position. CBS Sports says WKU has spoken with Idaho coach Paul Petrino.
He’s the younger brother of current Louisville coach, and former WKU head coach Bobby Petrino.
Paul Petrino previously interviewed for the head coaching job at WKU in 2009 before Willie Taggart was hired.
Petrino’s record is 14-33 during his three years at Idaho, with the team posting an 8-4 record this past season.
Former WKU head coach Jeff Brohm was named head coach at Purdue this week.
