    Can I serve in your administration? (bold added below)

    Someone above said don't hire someone from within. I agree.

And someone who won't use this job as a stepping stone to another job. My first hire as AD would be DukeTaylor to handle fund raising activities.

    I'll brush up the old resume' and send in my application over the weekend. I need y'all to start a right in campaign for me!

    And please, no jokes about installing Bud Light taps in Cameron and Wallace Wade. That isn't going to happen.

    I'll be glad to "write" in for you - not sure if you are "right" for the position. But if you get it, I will be glad to be your proof reader.

    I am sure that for Ozzie this will be a "rite" of passage.

    BWAAAHAHAHAHAAAA!

    The LSU fanbase is insane.

    Not "Oh, those wacky Cajuns!" insane or "My they get loud at football games" insane, but literally, unequivocally, bat s**t insane. Approaching Kentucky levels of insanity.

    Good luck, Joe. You're going to need it.

    Hey, just keep the Mike Sobb in as the Assistant Athletic Director for Marketing...he's my little sister's basketball coach!

    Talking 1 Vote for John Feinstein

    Interesting news - may have more impact than the casual fans realize.

    I vote for John Feinstein for the new Duke Athletic Director! Hell, he's been saying for years that he could do better than "Coach-K's Racquetball buddy" and do so "with two hands tied behind (my) back..."

    Well, seems to me, this is his big chance....


    Failing John, I would disagree with the poster who argued for an internal candidate. That only worked to mixed results last time. I'd like to see us bring in some new blood and ideas, and I'm sure that there are some very qualified, experienced candidates out there, as Duke has to be viewed as a fairly attractive and visible slot. Wouldn't mind seeing someone coming from someplace with a significant football program, given our apparent new direction on that side. Hey, who's the AD at Tenn? I liked our last hire from there! I'm sure they'll have a search committee put together post-haste. But who might some of the appropriate candidates be?

    Any concerns about how this could affect K's longevity at Duke? Given his closeness to Joe, I would hope the new selection is a comfortable one for Mike.

    He probably told them he had no personal scruples that would get in the way of him being a bagman for whatever the LSU president told him to do.

    Any chances of Duke hiring a woman? Joan Cronan (Tenn), Debbie Yow (MD), or Chris Plonsky (Texas) would be awesome!

    Smile Ozzie is choice #1; who is #2?

    How about an unemployed former NBA person, Billy King?

    We can play this game all day, but what will Feinstein write tomorrow?

    Right Here, Right Now ... Vote for Ozzie!!

    Cheers,
    Lavabe

    ozzie in? i'm there.

    I swear I read that he was involved in another politically correct situation similar to the Lacrosse case, at his previous employment. Was it Tufts University where he was involved in the expulsion of a student who was studying and was being interrupted by some girls celebrating outside? The student yelled down to them to tone it down. They didn't and he yelled down a second time to keep it quiet you water buffalos. They put him up for expulsion because water buffalos can be found in Africa as well as Asia and some of the loud girls were black. He was considered as having made racist remarks but when the media got hold of it and made a mockery of the school administration they had to reinstate the kid. I thought Alleva was front and center in that situation and that probably got him into Duke, with the support of the group of 88. Am I all wet in that? I thought I read it in some book. Maybe it was "Guilty until proven Innocent".

    I believe you're thinking of Larry Moneta.
