Blue Devils focus on the details under new Duke football coach Mike Elko


It was the first practice with shoulder pads for Duke. There was a sharpness to the players warm ups drills. The assistant coaches were focused and intense. New head coach Mike Elko looked happy. "I'm having a blast," Elko said. "It's been really cool to take on the task of all of it." After twenty-three years of coaching this is Elko's first head coaching gig. (WRAL Sports Fan)
