    When is the N&O going to name a replacement for Keeley? Will they name a replacement? Football season is nearly upon us.

    I seem to recall that he drove an old jalopy with old "Indian blankets" draped across the back seat to cover the depleted upholstery.

    Hopefully they don't assign to Andrew Carter as a "when you get around to it" assignment.

    The irrepressible Mr Paschal would purchase an old beater to drive from home in Duke Forest to the Law School. He maintained a fine car for his wife to drive.

    Yes, I remember the distinction between his school car and her car!

    I talked to a member of the N&O Sports staff a couple of days ago.

    He told me that the N&O would be hiring an outsider to be the new Duke beat writer (so no fears of Andrew Carter!). He said they actually offered the job to a great candidate a few days ago, but that person got a better job offer and moved on. He said they had several very strong candidates still lined up and he expected a new hire in a few days.

    How about Ozzie? He'd be great!

    I don't believe Cut or the other football coaches would like that.

    Well, duh. It would take him away from his duties as OC!

    Wouldn't that take away from Ozzie's quest to become Athletic Director?

    Congrats to @JessikaMorgan, our new Duke writer. And, more important, new mom, which is why she won't take over the beat until October.

    Here's a little giggle: imagine Laura on a callback at Moore & Van Allen in the fall of 2019. The first interviewer: Bilas.

    Good Luck to Ms Morgan. She has huge shoes to fill. If she starts to falter - we can always nominate Ozzie. And if Ozzie fails, we'll just nominate Harrison Barnes. He doesn't seem to be doing anything lately !
