Duke has fired football coach Ted Roof, a source with knowledge of the firing told the Observer on Monday morning on condition of anonymity.

The school has called a news conference for 2 p.m. today to discuss the future of the program.

Roof, 6-45 after four-plus seasons at Duke, was 1-11 this season and has lost 25 games in a row against ACC opponents. He said last week that he hoped to return.

Another ACC school, Georgia Tech, also is holding a 2 p.m. news conference to discuss its coach's future.

The Atlanta Journal & Constitution is reporting on its web site that coach Chan Gailey has been fired. Gailey is 68-43 in his sixth season at Georgia Tech.

He has won exactly seven games in five of his six seasons and was 9-5 in 2006 with a trip to the ACC championship game. Under Gailey, Georgia Tech is 0-6 against rival Georgia.

    “In my mind, I’m kind of like, ‘OK, excuses over'. We know what we need to do. We’ve got the right team together, and now we move forward, and we’ll evaluate and be accountable to each other, including myself, from this point forward.”
