The OL issues were Grobe's responsibility as head coach. He fixed a problem that his staff created. It's like when pols give themselves credit for fixing problems that they created (i.e. Clinton and the democratization of mortgages comes to mind). You've got a point about the DL and I'm a bit more sympathetic to that, but it's not really all that different. As a head coach, Grobe's responsibility is to ensure that he's got the best position coaches to fulfill his vision as head coach. That's a good CEO.
He's brought in good positional guys over the past couple of years, but his #2 is still the weakest link, known to almost everybody who seriously follows ACC or Wake football, and he's done absolutely nothing to address it.
What's dishonest, IMO, is to claim that these post-fresh deacs problems and the way that they have since been addressed are Grobe successes, instead of merely correcting his regime's failures.
I think we fundamentally agree, though.
