If Tony Elliott is really interested in being a head coach..

Would Duke be a good no pressure type school for a first time head coaching job?
Would Elliott even be interested in a school like Duke?

I think Duke would be a dead end job for TE.

I agree. Duke doesn’t care about football. TE would be just about as successful as Chase Brice was there.

schools like Duke or VT to go the coordinator route.
He's more likely to end -up somewhere like Georgia Southern, Louisiana, SMU, FIU, LaTech or Troy IMO.
If he holds-out for a HC position at a Power 5 program, he may be in for a long wait.

No where to go but up. Build up Duke and use it as a springboard for a better job. He's not going to get a good power 5 job. He's going to have to go and prove it somewhere first.

I think Tony is smart enough to find a G5 situation he can win and use that to become HC at a decent P5 school rather than looking at Duke.
Duke would be wise to consider someone like Will Healy, but there was a report today that said he's not on their list. That's a tough job, and ultimately comes down to how good Duke thinks they can be. The answer is probably not very good, but things with Cut were going the wrong way.
