Best Lou Holtz Moment?

Mine was when he had his last game at home against Rutgers. He truly loves ND, not just the football team. I didn’t realize it at the time, but I think he should have been allowed to coach as long as he wanted. A close second is “Save Jimmy Johnson’s ass for me!”

ND lineman gets a PF penalty. Lou runs on the field, grabs his facemask and drags him off the field.

That's your best Lou moment? Even Holtz said that he regretted doing that. It wasn't a good look

The best was when he went off on those refs VS Mich in the 88 opener. Dumbass ref missed the call...

After he was finished tearing each one a new one, Brent said the firs are flying in South Bend tonight!

Getting away with putting the referee in a headlock.

Maybe not favorite, but on the short list.

Evil preaches tolerance until it is dominant, then it tries to silence good.

I don't know if he got away with it. ND got a 15yd penalty for it. Lou didn't get ejected, so, maybe

I always love when Lou talks about his faith and his devotion to the Blessed Mother.
