|  Jim Grobe to Arkansas
Several news stations out here in Fayetteville just reported that the Hogs will hire Wake Forest head coach Jim Grobe as their next head coach.
If so, that would be an excellent hire for them. |

| We'll see just how good he is. I know everyone loves him now, but watching WF since I was in high school, i've never been that impressed. |

Arkansas acts like they deserve a more-with-more guy. A guy that can coach without talent, but also will bring loads of talent to Fayetteville. What they don't understand is that they don't have a lot to offer. They aren't ever going to be much better than what Houston Nutt had in his good years. | |

| Nah - multiple coaches turned them down yes - but they didn't basically have multiple coaches say they were coming only to back out soon after that.
Because I garuntee Jim Grobe wasn't their #1 priority.
Hardly anyone gets their #1 priority - but it doesn't usually make it public. This a different situation since there were stories announced all over the place that he was coming here then it turns out he doesn't. | |
