"This was the worst-conditioned team I have seen in 32 years of football," says Cutcliffe. "But in the last seven weeks, we have lost 304.6 pounds. I haven't had anyone quit. We have been going hard during the week, but I give them the weekends off. There are good kids here."

"I hate saying we're 'trying' to turn around the program," says Cutcliffe. "I like saying we're 'going' to do it."

We interupt the Duke-UNC Basketball coverage for an excellent article on Duke Football!  It's great to have Coach Cutcliffe aboard in that he is working it!  He will have the Mannings with him at tonight's basketball game.  Do you think the exposure might help recruiting?  I do.
