Jets’ first-round pick spoiled by Texas Tech’s plane photo The 2026 NFL Draft really begins when the New York Jets come on the clock at No. 2 overall. The whole world knows the Las Vegas Raiders are taking Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza with the first pick. The Jets are reportedly deciding between Ohio State linebacker Arvell Reese and Texas Tech defensive end David Bailey at No. 2, and it sure feels like the Red Raiders just spoiled the pick with their post on Twitter early Thursday morning before round one gets underway.The Texas Tech football account tweeted a photo of the coaching staff before they take off for Pittsburgh to watch the first round of the draft. Two things you should notice: the large jet in the background of the photo, and the jet emoji. I’m not Sherlock Holmes, but I feel comfortable guessing that they already know their guy Bailey will be taken with the second overall pick by the Jets.Very subtle, Red Raiders.Good luck to David Bailey in New York. The Jets need all the luck they can get. #Jets #firstround #pick #spoiled #Texas #Techs #plane #photo

Louisville’s Jeff Brohm, Head Coach, watches everyone in football practice at the Trager Center. March 17, 2026

Louisville football coach Jeff Brohm agreed to an eight-year, $64.8 million contract extension Thursday that runs through the 2033 season.

The University of Louisville Athletic Association Board of Directors approved the deal for Brohm, who will receive an annual base salary that starts at $6.3 million and scales upward each season to $8.7 million in 2032.

Brohm, who turns 55 on Friday, guided the Cardinals to their second straight 9-4 record last season in addition to a win in the Boca Raton Bowl. The Louisville native is 28-12 during his first three seasons at his alma mater.

“This extension reflects the dedication and commitment of our players and staff,” Brohm said. “We’ve made meaningful progress the past three seasons, and we look forward to continuing to pursue higher goals. We are committed to putting in the work that is necessary to consistently compete for championships and play an exciting brand of football. We are proud of where we are but even more excited for the future that lies ahead.”

Brohm reportedly had been linked to the job openings at Penn State, Michigan and Florida at times last season.

“Over the past three seasons, Jeff has clearly demonstrated that he is the right person to lead our football program, now and into the future,” said Josh Heird, vice president/director of athletics. “He understands what it means to represent the University of Louisville on the field and in this community. Jeff is building a culture rooted in accountability, development, and competitive excellence. I am confident in the direction of our program and excited about what the future holds under his leadership.”

If Brohm leaves before Dec. 31, 2027, he would owe the school $3 million. The number drops to $1 million after that. If he is fired without cause before Dec. 31, 2029, the university would owe him 90% of his total remaining salary.

Brohm originally signed a six-year deal with Louisville in December 2022.

He is 94-56 overall including stints at Western Kentucky (2014-16) and Purdue (2017-22). His teams are 7-2 in bowl games.
