Grobe to Arkansas

After half cup coffee, let me make a correction --

Appears Grobe may go to Arkansas. I think this would be a great move for Arky.

Day late and a dollar short. Must've gone to bed too early last night



Thanks, though.

I'm just playin' around.

But that's a great hire by Arkansas if it is true...

Makes me sad. I wanted this to be a total debacle like the basketball search... If they had ended up with Tommy Bowden I would have been ecstatic.

Agreed -- I think Grobe is a better hire than Bowden would've been. We'll see if he can hack it in the SEC. He's done a good job with not much at Wake.

He's leaving Wake to go back to Wake---he got a nice bump in cash.

thread title aside.........

this should be a good hire for Ark. Grobe isn't flashy, but he's a good coach.

I think Arky fans are going to realize they made a mistake when they ran Nutt out of town. Arky is not a hotbed for talent and Nutt did a better job than anyone would have thought he could do with that program. 8-4/9-3 seasons and a SECCG birth every so often is pretty good for a top 5/6 SEC school....I think they fade down to 7-5/6-6 teams now and trade positions with Miss-St...Nutt will beat the breaks off them with the Rebels next year to....
