The South Carolina coach was at Cameron Indoor Stadium meeting with athletic director Joe Alleva, two days after the Blue Devils fired coach Ted Roof.
The News & Observer of Raleigh reported that Spurrier was seen shaking hands with the AD as they left Duke's primary athletic facility at around 3:20 p.m.

Hard to believe he'd be interested in leaving SC for Duke

Duke's program is a bigger rebuilding job then the one he already has. they have no football tradition there. Its a basketball school.

Personally I think it's gettign time for the old ball coach to either go to a top shelf program or just go home and play golf. He doesn't seem to have that "it" anymore that makes players want to play 150% for him. He needs to go where talent goes regularly or go home.

I could see it as one of those moves a senior professional makes because it makes them happy. Money and "proving" anything are not issues Spurrier has to worry about.

Be careful. Look at what happened to me when I raised this question....

One of two things:
1. Acting as a Consultant
2. Visiting or possibly lobbying for his son who lives in Durham

No way he would leave SC for that mess... must just be an a consultant in their hiring process.

He has a better chance rebuilding an ACC school than he does at USC.

I would say that the Triangle area qualifies as a far better place to live (esp. in retirement) than Columbia. What a no pressure job Duke would be, win four games and you become a hero.

I'll be eating a huge plate of crow if Spurrier goes back to Duke. I said there was a ZERO chance of that happening.
