Wake Forest’s Grobe to Arkansas?
December 6, 2007 |
Curious reports out of Arkansas tonight. Apparently The Razorback Foundation, the athletic department’s private fundraising arm, has approved a supplemental salary request for Wake Forest’s Jim Grobe. This doesn’t officially mean the university is hiring Grobe, but it’s a strong indication.
A news conference could be held as early as Thursday to announce Grobe as the next Razorbacks coach. Or the whole thing could fall apart. Check back to find out what happens.
Grobe only places 51st in our updated rankings, but he’s known for consistently making the most of the talent he’s got, so this could be a good hire for Arkansas.
