Duke football has a new look this year, and it begins and ends with first -year coach David Cutcliffe.

The last three years have been dreadful for Duke fans with a 2-33 record since 2005. As the coach joined Mike Maniscalco and Dave Rothenberg on 99.9 FM The Fan Friday morning, he said he plans to get it done at a faster pace than usual.

"Now for it to be like I want it, it's going to happen faster than it did at Ole Miss," Cutcliffe said. "I went in there and I had to coach coaches. Not this staff."

That's good for Duke fans to hear considering his first full year as coach of Mississippi he won eight games. That's the total number of wins the Duke program has won in the last five seasons combined.

Cutcliffe previously recruited the last two Super Bowl MVPs in Peyton Manning (while at Tennessee) and Eli Manning (at Ole Miss), he vows that there will always be a great quarterback while he is coach at Duke.

And if you're wondering if he can recruit to Duke, his answer is yes. To hear what the coach had to say about recruiting, coaching quarterbacks, the Manning Brothers, and building the program, you'll have to listen.

You can't blame me for being on the defensive can you! I'm really a nice, very "girly" girl who just happens to love the hell out of sports! I use to have guy friends in school and all the girls hated me, not because I was sleeping with them, but because they liked hanging around me because I could talk sports with them. Have a great weekend everyone!

"Clean up" bad choice of words .. Im meaning if you need to change into something more comfortable. Some ladies don't like to wear their work clothes out to eat.

But then again some due so no fault in that.

It's a shame a guy offers to pay for your dinner and you grip ... you make good wife material ha ha

You have a good weekend ...
