Interesting name for a sports guy.
When he fires a coach, does that mean they get "Booed"?

He was an associate AD at Duke and his father used to be commissioner of the ACC. Born to the breed.
Gene Corrigan, of course, is a Duke alum. Played lacrosse.

For a bit more helpful details:
- yes, he is Gene's son
- I didn't realize he was associate AD at Duke from 2008-2011, before that he was at his alma mater Notre Dame for 4 years and Navy for a few years before that.
- He comes to State from Army, where he was AD from 2011-present
- His brother Kevin is lacrosse coach at Notre Dame
Seems like a good hire.

I was impressed that both Boo's and Gene's Wikipedia article had already been updated with Boo's hire by NCSU.
