Elrod didn't want to coach anymore. He has a day job outside of football now.

People who don't know say stupid shit.
ETA: yes, I am beating a dead horse, but I don't care for people who climb up on high horses, something both Grobe and you did liberally.
And I don't care for people who try and instigate nonsense. I just don't think an FBS school is looking for a Jim Grobe type right now in college football. He's 62. His method takes a couple years to kick in. His prime is behind him, and schools want someone these days that can really excite a fan base. Hiring someone who is "past their prime" isn't going to do that. My opinion. You don't have to agree.
He also said he's going to be calling some games on Raycom
Sidenote, Elrod is joining Stan this year on the radio network. Interesting move for him. Goren moving back to the sidelines.
no more Phonz on the sideline?
Phonz is a high school coach in south FL.
What we KNOW is that this previous staff ran the football program into the ground. Flat ass into the fucking ground. If you want to call that "stupid shit" because most of them couldn't find a job, you are entitled.

Meh, Grobe's call in show and "aw shucks" demeanor doesn't lead me to believe that he'll be a good color man.
I have no idea if Grobe will coach again but I do appreciate what he did. As a long time Wake fan he took us to places we never had gone and raised expectations. That is a good thing. Time to move on and join the Dave Clawson era.
I know a good friend of Elrod's down here in Jax and this was a family decision for him. He had plenty of coaching opportunities in football but had a great opportunity outside of football and took it. Without going into detail that family has been through a lot in the last year or so and I admire the decision. Think he will be informative on the radio.
We've been over this so many times....
Grobe = very nice gentleman. He was an administrator - not a coach of anything. 'Head' coach in name only. He was lost when he/we lost both coordinators. He coasted the last 3 years and totally lost the team during the 2012 season - should have resigned then. End of story.
JMO but can't for the life of me see Grobe as an 'interesting' color man on either TV or radio....he'll make folks doze-off before the end of the 1st quarter.
