One day after a 17-14 loss to Virginia Tech that saddled Virginia with its second losing season in three years, UVa athletic director Craig Littlepage said Sunday that he has not exercised the rollover clause in head football coach Al Groh's contract.

Groh is left with three years on his contract for the first time since his second contract with UVa in 2005.

"I will be meeting with him in the next 48 hours to conduct a year-end review of the football program," Littlepage said in a statement released by UVa's sports information office.

According to Groh's contract, UVa is required to inform him by Dec. 1 if his contract is going to be extended by a year.

The most recent loss to Virginia Tech left Groh with a 1-7 record against UVa's archrival, including four straight losses. The Cavaliers lost their final four games this season to finish 5-7.

Attendance at UVa home games dropped from a six-game average of 59,824 in 2007 to a seven-game average of 53,815 this year.

Groh was the ACC coach of the year in 2007, when the Cavaliers were 9-4. His eight-year record at UVa is 56-44.

Groh's contract originally called for total compensation of $1.7 million per year, with yearly cost-of-living increases that have taken him close to $2 million per year.

The contract does not contain a buyout provision.
