Two articles in this morning's Chronicle have some new stuff that's really of interest...
1) Joe Alleva wasn't the only person to go talk with Navy HC Paul Johnson on Monday. President Richard Brodhead and another top school executive also hopped on a chartered private jet to the Washington area to meet with the Navy coach. If Duke is sending bigwigs to visit Johnson at home (compared to just bringing in Broadway to Duke), I think we can see where their priorities are at this point and who is at the top of their list.
2) We've confirmed that Duke has hired renowned football headhunter Chuck Neinas to help them in their search. Neinas is a former Big Eight commissioner that has schools identify and hire coaches like Mack Brown, Bob Stoops and Urban Meyer, so the guy has an excellent track record. He also doesn't come cheap—his standard fee is $35-40,000.
