... of many Cavalier fans: What went wrong with the Al Groh era?

During his first few years on the job, the Cavaliers were playing well and seemed to be a program on the rise.  We had some good recruiting classes.  The fan base was energized and growing. 

The stadium had been expanded and was bringing in record crowds.  Then things went south and Groh was unceremoniously dumped following the 2009 season after nine years on the job.  What went wrong?

First, let me ask the obvious question: Why was Groh fired?  The answer: He wasn’t winning enough games, which is closely related to his losing too many games.
