Interesting Person present at Tech Practice today.

[JacketFanForLife]

Former Virginia Head Coach Al Groh was at practice today. Think there is a chance he may be the Defensive Cord next year?

 

[GSU Jacket]

That is odd. Could just be a possibility for another assistant on defense.

 

[MadTownJacket]

Uh, do we want him? I haven't really known about his defense, other than us running all over them this year.

 

[JacketFanForLife]

I'm not saying I want him just giving some info.

 

[Womenandcookies]

I wouldn't have a problem with him being on our staff next year. He's a good person and with the right personnel seemed to be a pretty good coordinator. Didn't know this till a minute ago but after the trivia question yesterday, Groh was the Air Force DC when ELI ran over them in 78.

 

[boozinbuzz]

Groh runs a 3-4 defense, correct?

 

[GTYellowJacket12]

Groh is a good Defensive guy, I never realy liked his negative recruiting style (remember the Yates-Cunningham message board post incident) but other than that he's ok.

 

[Geori]

Al Groh would be a hell of a recruiter for us.

 

[BarrelORum]

Don't ****ing Tease me. If Al Groh was at practice, that would be awesome. I would love to see him as the DC at GT. We would totally crush people and win an NC next year with him running the defense.

Gosh, that is interesting. 'Preciate the poop. :biggthumpup:

 

[PerfectOption]

I would love to have Al Groh as DC. The man knows how to run a D.

this.

But Wommack should and probably will get one more year under CPJ.

What happened?

 

[texstinger]

If there was one iota of a chance of this happening, I can not in any way imagine him visiting while we are preparing for a BCS bowl and with the current coaches on the field working their butts off.

Maybe as a reminder that we held them to, what, 9 points?:D

 

[PerfectOption]

Think he might be there b/c of ties with Coach Sewak (a UVA alum)?

 

[JacketFanForLife]

May be the only scoop I have this year but this one is a fact.

 

[JacketFanForLife]

Could be that with Monken leaving that leaves a spot on the staff. You could bump Wommack to S T Cord and make Groh Def Cord.

where would groh coach

i saw that

 

[Womenandcookies]

To whoever was doubting him. Groh's fall from grace really happened recently and I think more was due to the offense sucking. (Partly because of his son as OC for several years) In 07 his D ranked 23rd. in 06 they were 17. 04 they were 18th. Now in the years I didn't mention they weren't so good, but their worst ranking wasn't any worse then where we are now.

Good call..hadn't thought of that.
