[QUOTE="ramblinvak, post: 50049, member: 178"] In defense of coach, with hindsight it makes sense that it Groh's termination was delayed. When Groh got here in 2010, he said it would take 2 years to implement his system to get the players he wanted and teach the scheme he wanted to play. With that in mind, we all thought it would be during that 2012 season that the defense would be leaps and bounds better. I was at the spring game that year and the defense looked good. When the season opened at VT, we held them at 20 and thought at that time that if our defense could play like this the rest of the season, this would be our year. Little did we know that VTs offense would be atrocious that year. It was not until the come from behind loss we had against Miami that we truly realized that the Groh experiment was not going to work, so he was canned at the first opportunity, the bye week. I dont believe CPJ acted slowly based on what Groh said coming in. I do agree the failure of Groh does fall on CPJ, but at the time Groh was hired, a lot of people were praising CPJ for how good of a hire that was. Based on this years draft and an article by Ken at the AJC, he was able to show just how good the playmakers we had on defense were during the 2012 season, and it is a shame we were note able to capitalize that season, considering it was statistically one of our better offensive seasons with CPJ. Hindsight truly is 20/20. [/QUOTE]
