Jim Grobe Wins AP Coach of the Year
The headline says Grobe is leading a "revival" of Wake football, which is too kind to our history. This isn't so much a "revival" of past glories as it is a head-strong charge into unprecedented territory. It wasn't so long ago (this season, in fact) that ESPN analyst Mark May made special notice of our ineptitude ("You know who's bad? Wake Forest.") Of course we were bad, right? It didn't matter we were undefeated at the time, it didn't matter the talent of our players or the smarts of our coaches, we were Wake Forest, forever doomed to be ACC's little whipping boy. We couldn't possibly be any good.
That's why Jim Grobe is the AP Coach of the Year and Mark Mary works behind a desk. One knows how to build a championship football team and the other mistakes champions for doormats.
