[QUOTE="John, post: 47896, member: 1"] Couple of things to keep in mind about Al Groh is how his coaching tenure at his alma mater ended. Not sure if he had anything positive to say in the poem he read to the media unless I completely misinterpreted the poem. As far as I know, Groh was pretty respectful with his official message released after being let go. The derisive comments came months after he was fired and by that time, we had statistics to prove that our defense actually improved overall and in several categories after Groh left and Coach Kelly became the interim coach. Let's be real here though, was anyone here happy with Groh's defense? I'm fine with people blaming CPJ for hiring him but trying to use the circumstances around how Groh was fired against CPJ seems counterproductive to such an argument. This is a probably a pretty fair article to reference: [url]http://espn.go.com/blog/acc/post/_/id/50749/groh-rips-gt-culture-johnson-responds[/url] On the other hand, even though Groh hasn't been offered a job by any other team, I still respect him as a defensive minded coach and thought that he would be a pretty good DC or a LB coach for an NFL (not college) team struggling defensively. At the end of the day, any attempts to try to connect the dot between what happened to Groh then and Walkosky/Griffin now doesn't seem very prudent seeing as how no one has any idea what happened to Walkosky/Griffin.
