Early Rumblings - Johnson to Tech

Although theres been nothing as of this time that I've seen official or reported, a sports radio station in Atlanta is apparently reporting that Navy HC Paul Johnson has accepted Georgia Tech's offer and will soon become their next head coach.

If this is true, it can't come as a shock to Duke fans. The Georgia Tech job is lightyears ahead of Duke in terms of pre-existing resources and talent. The job would give Johnson a much easier, quicker chance to win and challenge for a league title than Duke would. If the money is anywhere close to what Duke is offering, then there's little doubt why Johnson would choose GT over Duke.

UPDATE (10:35 p.m.) - Nothing official yet as of this hour...lets hope that Joe Alleva is driving up to Annapolis right now in a Brinks truck.
