Report: Jim Grobe will resign at Wake Forest

According to ESPN’s Brett McMurphy, Jim Grobe will resign his post as coach of Wake Forest today.

Wake Forest has called a news conference for this afternoon, presumably where Grobe will make his announcement.

Grobe has spent 13 seasons at Wake Forest, leading the Deamon Deacons to an ACC Championship and Orange Bowl berth in 2006. But Wake Forest has floundered in recent years, only making one bowl since 2009. Even in that bowl year (2011), Wake Forest finished with a 6-7 record.

Still, Wake Forest hadn’t made a bowl game in consecutive years until Grobe showed up -- and he made bowls in three straight seasons from 2006-2008.
