Its amazing that even this guy wants to give Groh the rest of the season to "right the ship". Its surprising just how many UVA fans are tolerant of Groh.

This is probably Al Groh's last season, but if it isn't, it will be interesting to see how serious UVA takes their football program. Either they'll step up and buy Groh out or they will accept mediocrity.
 
It's just like the FOCers. Some people are just deathly afraid of change and will fight until the end to see the status quo maintained.

Groh suxs 10X worse than Gailey ever did.
 
Gailey is much better than Groh. Gailey lived in good, but we want great. Groh is simply not a good coach.

No. They're pretty much identical in every way except Gailey never had a losing season. They could be twins.

So they are identical except one had more wins and consistency?
 
wasn't there a facebook style al groh page? It was really funny, can someone give the link?
 
I thought we agreed to ban GTKyle after the inappropriate thread...the loss of him wouldn't do anything but help this board!
 
Groh sucks but he usually . . .

. . . finds a way to whip us. I think Virginia has our number. They know the way to beat Tech is to punch them in the mouth a few times and wait for them to wilt. I hope Coach Johnson can get that out of our pysche but based on last years result it looked like the same old crap.

Groh and Gailey are cut from the same cloth. Both should be retired and playing with their Grandkids.

Go Jackets!

Actually, this crap with UVA predates Groh by quite a few years. I too hope Johnson gets us out of this funk.

See my earlier link. They do something different everyyear, last year was facebook, this year twitter.

Who knew that Hokies were so clever?

Last year wasn't quite the same. Last years game against Virginia looked a lot like our game last Saturday. This is how I'd adjust your analogy to show what last year looked like to me:
Georgia Tech knocks Virginia to the ground, relaxes and starts waving to the crowd. Virginia gets up and slugs an unprepared Georgia Tech in the face, Georgia Tech wilts.
