Did haas punt the bread?

Of course. Why would Grobe only have one questionable decision in a game?

How was Grobe moving at the hot bar?

 

[bym051d]

How many steaks did he buy?

 

[morrison2951]

None- he fumbled at the check out line.

 

[cpadeac2010]

Sounds like the problem was too many options.

I hope he remembered to crack the window for Lobo

pos rep.

I also enjoyed watching Grobe drive away with Lobo snuggled firmly in his lap.

I can only assume Grobe was choosing between white bread and white bread.

Well done.

I'm kinda like this. He's on his way out, like some wanted. Let him go with the dignity he deserves.

+1 Absolutely

Grobe was the greatest thing to ever happen to Wake football.

It's a damn shame that he's the subject of punch lines like this.

I was at Wake in the late 60s. Back then our football teams went games without even scoring. Grobe brought us an ACC Championship. I will always be grateful for that.

I saw him on the golf course this weekend. He looked fit and happy. I wouldn't blame him if he simply walked away from coaching and enjoyed himself. Maybe get an ESPN gig. Holtz can't go on forever.

I cannot imagine Grobe at ESPN. I think he would absolutely hate it.

Holtz will try to go on forever. He loves being the center of attention. And anybody would be better than Tommy Bowden.

Yeah that's one thing I did notice he's got less of a belly

Which is odd, since presumably he can eat more than just one steak at a time since he left Wake Forest.

Wouldn't exactly make for riveting TV, either.

While I was frustrated over the past three years like everyone else, I still loved Grobe. He is a good and loyal man who took Wake football to its highest level of performance EVER. He stepped down (under pressure or not,) and recognized he just was no longer getting it done. He deserves our admiration and our appreciation.

I hope Grobe's legacy will be to have defined the "historically competitive" benchmark for Wake football.
