That DC promoted to HC was Ted Roof.

Roof was subsequently an abject failure as a HC at Duke

Two ways to look at this:

One, if Orgeron does well and LSU misses on their top preferred choices then Orgeron could be made HC.

Two, Alleva looks back on the failure of Roof and thus tends to disfavor making another similar promotion.

I think there will be more choices for LSU then Duke, obviously, so I think Orgeron has a long shot here unless he does really well as interim and lsu whiffs on certain candidates.

We could also look and see he hired the best Duke football coach in its entire school history

Alleva is a penis sucker. What he did to the Lacrosse guys at Duke is pretty unforgivable. For that reason alone he should not be involved in any decisions....he should not even have a job doing anything in college athletics.

I think Alleva might be looking for a new job now.
