We will see how good of a coach Grobe is next year when he loses those 13 seniors.

11/26/2006 12:36:39 AM

i bet he will do better than 3-9

11/26/2006 12:39:37 AM

i'm thinking something in the 5-7 to 7-5 range. unc, miami (if they play them), and probably state will all be breaking in new coaches, and grobe is a hell of a coach. gt will be rebuilding also, so i'm thinking they'll be middle of the pack again. unfortunately that means that VT will probably win the conference again

Look up notre dames schedule this year. They faced more military departments than Iraq.

11/26/2006 1:25:44 AM

5 straight away games? that blows

11/26/2006 1:27:05 AM

^^ true, they really need to drop that if they ever really want a shot at a national title

11/26/2006 1:28:47 AM

army and navy are independent like nd, so dont they have to play at least one independent team as part of that stupid contract they have

Two words: Josh Adams

Best kid to ever play Cary High Football.

11/26/2006 1:32:08 AM

cary high fucking blows. hes garbage

11/26/2006 1:32:32 AM

josh adams was overrated

11/26/2006 1:41:52 AM

Scott Koiistra was nice, I was there when he was there. But he was an o-lineman.

And Adams was nice when he played, he'll be "like" barclay, too small for big schools, but he will do well at wake

11/26/2006 2:03:33 AM

hes a huge drug dealer, but since hes from cary high he sells schwagedy schwagg

11/26/2006 2:04:19 AM

to small for big schools? if he was playing right now, he could be playing in a BCS game in a few weeks.

and indeed he sells drugs, even in middle school at good ole West Cary

Wake Forest is 100% interchangeable.

It's quite amazing, really.

11/26/2006 2:19:08 AM

he got all kinds of scholarship offers from all the big schools......at DB

he wanted to play running back, so he took the offer from Wake

he deals drugs? good to know

that became pretty clear when they lost their starting QB and RB to injury. i thought for sure that would hinder them, but they kept doing what they do best and kept winning games. i went from doubting WF to being impressed by them.

11/26/2006 2:32:18 AM

they are a direct image of their coach

if you listen to him on the radio every week like I do, you won't be surprised by them

Wake will still be pretty good next year
he redshirts every freshman that comes into his program

he can not get the athletes that some schools can recruit so he trumps that with experience.
he suffered his first few years there but now his shit is clicking
he will have an assload of seniors next year also

11/26/2006 11:56:14 AM

my HS sucked ass, and we kicked the shit out of Cary no matter how many recruits they had

I am pretty sure the stat on ESPN said that he had NO redshirts this year....and still 13 guys leaving. Don't get me wrong I like what he has done with his program besides beat us like Bunting. I hope they get a really good bowl like the Gator or Peach

11/26/2006 1:10:58 PM

they pretty much redshirt everyone

you probably misread whatever it is you're referring to

well that stat was fucking wrong b/c josh adams was wore a red shirt

12/7/2006 11:18:26 AM

Almost every single player on the WF roster has redshirted. This was a very popular topic amongst sportswriters and announcers this year. You are mis-remembering the ESPN quote.

Yes, as well as all 8 ACC games first, followed by the 4 OOC games!

HIRE GROBE!!!!!!!!!!

12/7/2006 11:45:20 AM

Why do you think that Wake will lose AT HOME to FSU when they went down there this year and won by over 20????

Wake will have Mauk and Andrews back. Trust me, they might be here to stay now as long as Grobe is in charge.

12/7/2006 12:20:32 PM

do you really want Mauk back after what the new kid (Skinner?) did?

12/7/2006 12:23:04 PM

I don't know, Wake really doesn't throw the ball. It's not like Riley threw for 3000 yards.

The old saying is you can't lose your starting job due to injury, so we will see.

Trent Green got his job back even though the Chiefs were winning with Damon Huard.

12/7/2006 12:41:37 PM

thats not really the order of their schedule is it? I mean there are no assigned dates yet... I assume their athletic dept. wouldnt do 4 home conference games, 4 away conference games, then OOC games...

last i saw, our schedule was listed about the same way

12/7/2006 12:46:54 PM

Announced on ESPN that Ben Mauk is leaving due to "academic reasons"....

I think it is because Riley Skinner beats his ass any day of the week.

No QB controversy at Wake now I guess.

2/2/2007 12:29:05 PM

maybe its because wake didnt offer his grad school dept and under the new rule he can transfer to any school he wants and not have to sit out a year

so basically he could go Texas/USC/UF

anywhere

good move on his part

2/2/2007 1:09:14 PM

From what I have heard, it was basically clear that the starting job was Skinner's. Mauk is graduating so has little reason to stick around and ride the pine...ready to move on with his life.

2/2/2007 1:57:04 PM

guys they had 19 juniors on this team, and all but 5 had been red-shirted at some point, that's like 15 superseniors

haha

2/2/2007 7:13:34 PM

The main voids they will have is several holes in the secondary to fill and obviously Abbate.

2/3/2007 12:39:16 AM

thier talent is going up besides abotte and maybe smith. they had better guys on the bench but play guys by seniority and redshirt some really good guys. also they will get their starting running back back and actually have a reliable back that won't fumble everytime.
