For the past few years, anyone and everyone who I have discussed UVa football with has asked me how I felt about Al Groh. “Do you think he’s a better NFL or college coach?” “Is he too tough on his players?” “Is he tough enough on his players?” “Did he deserve that contract?” And the beat goes on and on. For the most part I have been a Groh defender. Even though he didn’t have the warmest personality, I respected and admired his knowledge of the game and I still do. However, after hearing of the embarrassing loss to William & Mary, watching the game against TCU live and in person, and then witnessing UVa’s collapse this past weekend against Southern Miss, I do believe there will be a change at the top of Cavaliers Football at the end of this season, if not before the end of the season.

-Bruce Bowen has retired from the NBA for anyone who actually cares. I care because I know that many of the NBA's top players can now rest easy knowing that Bruce Bowen isn't behind them trying kick them, punch them, tear their achilese, tear their ACL, poke them in the eye, or stab them in their sleep. I think that Bruce Bowen was a good player but he did not have to play the way he did in the latter part of his career. He sullied his reputation amongst the NBA fraternity. He could have been a all-world defender without being the worlds dirtiest player.

The Cav Report: Dark Days in ‘Hooville
Per request of one of my fellow UVa graduates, future business partner, and one of my best friends, Mr. Heron Mehrehtab, I am providing some analysis on the 2009 Virginia Cavaliers football team. Being a former Cavaliers football player, most would assume that I have an insider’s knowledge of the Cav’s current situation and they would be partly right in that assumption. I have played with many of UVa’s current players and I have played under the tutelage of many of the coaches. But this team is much different from the one that went on to win the 2006 Music City Bowl. This team doesn’t feature the likes of D’Brickishaw Ferguson, Tom Santi, Jon Stupar, Tony Franklin, Marcus Hamilton, Chris Long, Clint Sintim, Ahmad Brooks, Kai Parham, Jason Snelling, Wali Lundy, Cedrick Pearman, Brad Butler, etc. (all recent NFL players for those of you keeping track). However, this team does have some exciting young talent and a coaching staff who tries and often succeeds at preparing their young team for every possible situation. As a player I know that Coach Al Groh stressed the importance of situational football. The question that has to be on Coach Groh’s mind right now is, “How the hell did we get ourselves into this situation?”
