[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 153871, member: 322"] Roof was Duke Head Coach 2004-2007. "When head coach [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Franks']Carl Franks[/URL] was released mid-way through the 2003 season, Roof was promoted to interim head coach. The team finished the season by winning two of the last three games and Roof was subsequently hired as the 20th head coach at Duke on December 6, 2003. However, [B]after winning only four games over the next four seasons[/B],[URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Roof#cite_note-2'][2][/URL] he was fired on November 26, 2007, having compiled a [B]6–45 record[/B].

Looking at all he has done and seeing him at GT, I think he has the right persona for GT. Like CPJ, he has a forte (defense for Roof and offense for CPJ). But more importantly, I think Roof would crank up the fan base intensity even more being a former GT star player. [/QUOTE]
