This morning, during their regular weekly meeting, Head Football Coach Jim Grobe informed Athletic Director Ron Wellman of his plans to resign his position.
As a University, we are grateful to Coach Grobe and his staff for the 13 seasons in which he led our football program. During that time, the Demon Deacons went to five bowl games, won the 2006 Atlantic Coast Conference Football Championship and were invited to the Orange Bowl. Coach Grobe’s tenure at Wake Forest will go down as the greatest run of football success in school history. He and his staff lifted our program to great heights and showed us that winning championships is a worthy and realistic goal.
We wish Jim and his staff all the very best. Let’s take a moment to thank each staff member for their service to Wake Forest University.
