Lou Holtz on the Hot Seat

Does anyone here know what it was that Lou said?

Bad Analogy?

Holz said, "When a coach is struggling in his first year with a new program, but is supposed to be a great leader, you say, 'Hitler was a great leader too.'"


He had to apologize on air.


Young black female writer Jemele Hill was suspended by ESPN in June for writing, "Rooting for the Celtics is like saying Hitler was a victim."


It must be confusing for establishment minions. Until recently, frequent negative references to Hitler were mandatory; now it appears any mentions of Hitler at all are becoming risky.

The name of Hitler is trademarked. It is now linked to the religion of Holocaustomania.It is blasphemy for Goyim to speak, or towrite that name in any other context. To do so minimizes the unique suffering of the chosenites,causing them great mental distress.

Hitler used to be the ultimate evil. Now he is getting competion. Off hand I can think of Pol Pot, Idi Amin, Robert Mugwe, Moa, Che, and others.

Lou Holtz has died at 89.

Skimming the search feature on CF this morning it appears that Holtz was mostly a Caste Clown coach, who at times disparaged White athletes. There are other instances I see where he was complimentary, like with Toby Gerhart apparently. He also has a son Skip, who has coached some extraordinarily black teams. Make of that what you will.

Either way, he seemed like a decent man beyond the sports antiwhiteisms. He had a good sense of humor with some genuinely funny quips. In his book, "Wins, Losses, and Lessons," Holtz wrote, "When I die and people realize that I will not be resurrected in three days, they will forget me. That is the way it should be."

RIP

My grandparents were big time Notre Dame fans (Irish Catholics of course), always had on ND football on Saturdays that I can recall in the late 80s/early 90s when I was a kid. Can't really say anything negative about Holtz because of that. He was certainly a product of a bygone era. I actually did enjoy him on College Football Final for many years.

RIP.

I saw Lou Holtz do keynotes on a couple of different occasions. He was well spoken, humorous and had great messaging especially around individual accountability, responsibility. Coach Holtz was very approachable and friendly for those who took the time to speak with him.

It's funny but my families religious background isn't Catholic but we were the same thing around the same time Notre Dame radio network was must listening if possible.

My late father only cared for Notre Dame because even by this time period college football was awash in pay for pay scandals (which later sunk Holtz) and he felt Notre Dame was the only competitive school that at least tried to be a school first and a football team second.

I remember Raghib Ismail was a lightning rod for traditional fans as he was Prop 48 athlete who would never have been recruited under previous Notre Dame coaches due to his poor high school grades and SAT and people questioned the direction that Holtz was taking the program in and he was the poster child of the direction.

In my opinion he was the last great coach in Notre Dame that truly had a legitimate chance to win titles. Kelly and Freeman had teams in national title games that resembled the AFC championship teams of the mid 80's through late 90's who were David getting ready to getting stomped on by Goliath.

Sad news...

Years ago when Lou Holtz was coaching at Arkansas, he got in trouble for saying nice things about Jesse Helms.

I saw the 1990 Notre Dame-Tennessee game in Neyland Stadium before a crowd of over 97,000. Notre Dame won 34-29. I had a good view of Lou Holtz on the Notre Dame sideline. He paced back and forth, with an angry expression, attached to a headphone. A young man was keeping Holtz from tripping over a wire. Everybody, both coaches and players, looked scared of Holtz, and made sure to stay out of his way.
