Lou Holtz Named To College Football Hall of Fame
excerpt:
Holtz established himself as one of the most successful college football coaches of all time. He is the only coach in the history of college football to take five different teams to a bowl game (his ’85 Minnesota team actually qualified as a sixth, except Holtz did not coach in the bowl game since he had accepted the Notre Dame job), win four bowl games with different teams -- and have four different college teams ranked in the final top 20 poll. Holtz’s 249-132-7 career record for 33 seasons ranked him third in victories among active coaches at the time of his retirement and eighth in winning percentage. His 12 career postseason bowl victories rank him fourth on the all-time list.
