UVa Fans Majoring In Reverse Psychology

After dealing with yet another one of Al Groh's "stay the course"-slash- "you're doing a heck of a job, Brownie" midweek conferences, it's becoming obvious that Virginia fans are becoming far more creative in coping with what will almost certainly be a season where they won't be favored in any game and likely will leave Nov. 10, 2007 as their last FCS win. At first, you call for Groh's head posthaste, but eventually you tell yourself that it's not worth your time even to conjure up situations where Lane Kiffin/Steve Sarkisian/coach-to-be-named-later comes to Charlottesville in 2009, considering the stubbornness of Groh himself and the administration. That and his buyout is similar to fomer Cavalier basketball coach Pete Gillen's, which I believed required him to be buried in a tomb of alabaster under the court at John Paul Jones and granted $200 in gift certificates to Heaven Sizzler (it's WAY better than the mortal version).

Of course, if there's something that success-starved Virginia fans should be doing it's figuring out how to get a laugh at Groh's expense as long as signs aren't allowed in Scott Stadium. Now, I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume that Al Groh doesn't have Coachbook ... or that Coachbook doesn't even exist, considering its URL comes from the always-delightful Don't Fire Al Groh. Enjoy! Or don't!
