Ex-Marshall coach hired as UVA asst.
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) -- Former Marshall coach Bob Pruett has been hired as assistant coach and defensive coordinator at Virginia.
"I realized the good Lord's called me to coach. That's all I've ever done is work with young people," Pruett told The Associated Press on Friday in a telephone interview from his home in Sarasota, Fla.
He and Cavaliers head coach Al Groh have been friends since 1970 when Pruett was coaching high school football in northern Virginia and Groh was coach of Virginia's freshman team. Groh was also head coach at Wake Forest when Pruett was an assistant there in the mid-1980s.
