Al Groh not returning to the NFL

In the weeks since Al Groh was fired as head coach at Virginia, there’s been widespread speculation that he’d return to the NFL, possibly in Miami or New England.

But that apparently won’t be happening.

Groh will reportedly become the defensive coordinator at Georgia Tech. It’s his first job as a college assistant since he was the offensive coordinator at South Carolina in 1998.

Groh was the Jets’ head coach for one season, in 2000. He has also been an assistant with the Jets, Patriots, Browns, Giants and Falcons.
