Quotes about groh (8 Quotes)


    I'm the type of individual that works hard. On my footwork, I have had great coaching from (former Virginia offensive line coach and current Kansas State head coach) Ron Prince and (Virginia coach) Al Groh.

    At the urging of head coach Al Groh, most Virginia students have shed the traditional football dress code -- shirts and ties for the gentlemen, sundresses for the ladies -- in favor of T-shirts and body paint. On Aug.29 the athletic department passed out more than 3,200 free orange fever T-shirts, which have become ubiquitous around Charlottesville. A few staunch traditionalists are resisting the change, but Scott Stadium has never looked so unified. On Saturday, ... it was exciting to see the sea of orange.



    What I told UVA head coach Al Groh is that I hope Keith becomes a great football player, but he will be valuable to them if he doesn't play a down because of his attitude his enthusiasm and his energy. You need somebody like that to help you through practices because it gets tough out there.


    I thought all 15 practices were exactly what I wanted to accomplish. Just knowing what's going on and being a lot more comfortable in the huddle is where I've improved the most. Me and coach Groh talked and just said you don't have to go out there and make up for three seasons in one season or one throw. I'm going to do whatever I can to help this team win.

    There's some really good talent in the western part of the state. Virginia Tech used to have its way over there until Al Groh got to Virginia. Now there is some really good battling going on for those players. It reminds me of Iowa and Iowa State. You see battles that you didn't see 5-10 years ago and it's really good for the state.

    Groh confessed to some fleeting thoughts about returning Franklin to corner, but we'll have to see if fleeting turns into non-fleeting, ... Certainly, that would have to be something that you would quickly think of, but we have to make sure we don't weaken another spot.
