À propos de cet audio

Alex and Richard go through the one-of-a-kind football life lived by Lou Holtz, who died on March 4 at age 89. In this episode, we discuss:

* 1:46: Holtz’s Saban-like upbringing and why Notre Dame was the apple of his eye from an early age

* 4:14: William & Mary, Holtz’s first head coaching stop

* 7:25: NC State, where he was an all-timer

* 11:13: The Jets, a one-year misadventure

* 17:15: Arkansas, where Holtz was “the guy after the guy” and managed to stick the landing after replacing Frank Broyles … for a while

* 24:41: Minnesota, where Holtz’s eye was elsewhere

* 28:15: Notre Dame, a school that already had a unique football tradition but that Holtz took to another level on the field and mythologically

* 37:25: South Carolina, a strong closing act

* 39:16: Where Holtz’s resume is truly exceptional

* 42:58: Holtz as an NCAA perp, TV commentator, irascible storyteller, and guy who made Ryan Day really, really angry

* 48:49: Holtz’s endorsement of Jesse Helms, and a discussion of the cognitive dissonance that he deployed throughout his career
