South Carolina football coach Steve Spurrier was in town and visited with Duke athletic director Joe Alleva on Wednesday afternoon. Spurrier was seen shaking hands with Alleva outside of Cameron Indoor Stadium. Spurrier's old job, coaching football at Duke, is open, but it's highly unlikely the "Head Ball Coach" was chatting with his good friend about taking the job. Alleva had said Monday during a news conference to announce Ted Roof's firing that Spurrier would be one of the first people he would call to ask his opinion on where Duke should look for its next football coach.

He's just consulting. Steve should recommend Nix for the job. It would be a nice gesture on his part, and someone needs to hire an African-American coach this off season.

Duke needs someone who's young and ready to BUILD a program. That's the kind of program that can afford to hire an unknown 30 or early 40 something kinda guy.

this whole moving from school to school is a bunch of crap
some coaches these days show no alligiance to their team
greeat coaches and schools keep what they got and work with it.
Mack Brown, Bob Stoops, Lloyd Carr, Jim Tressel are great.
les Miles, Spurrier, and saban all ned to pick a team

After UNC snatched Butch last year Duke needs a big name guy with patience. They are 1-23 the last 2 years, and have had virtually te same lineup both years. They are a little more mature, but still need direction. and they need to learn how to win close games. they have lost 7 games by 10 or less the last 2 years
