Lou Holtz (Longtime CFB HC, R.I.P.)

calibuck said:
Was in the stands for the 1968 Rose Bowl. Didn't see it happening of course, but read later, when OJ ran for 80 yard TD, Woody grabbed Lou, and asked him how did OJ get 80? Lou responded, 'because that's all he needed'. Much faster than I have, and also read that Woody chuckled. He was a force in coaching. Also read that when he went to coach for a program, his contract read that he could be excused if the HC job became available, at ND or tOSU. So was very surprised when he ranted and railed against tOSU later in his life. Anyway, RIP Lou.

Woody and the “Because I Couldn’t Go For Three” Myth

Building on John Niyo's fine piece in the Detroit News about Woody’s oft-repeated line following the 1968 Michigan-Ohio State game. Asked why he went two Hayes allegedly replied, “Because I couldn’t go for three,” Here's a look at the truth from 1968, and a bet-you-didn't-know precursor to...

Woody and the “Because I Couldn’t Go For Three” Myth​

So where did the legend come from? Perhaps it was an assistant who said it at some point, or maybe it was a line delivered in a bust or speech to an alumni group. It’s not clear, but we do know Woody did not say it right after the game.

The Ohio State University Archives does not have a transcript of Hayes’ postgame interview from that day. That would conclusively settle the issue one way or the other, as would a film or audio recording of that interview.

Hayes certainly said those words at some point. It became an often-repeated story later in his life. One of his assistants from 1968, Lou Holtz, has told the story ad nauseum.

Just sayin':
1. Lou (for whatever reason) was more than willing to keep the quote "alive".

2. If Woody didn't actually say it, it does sound like something something Ohio State assistant coach Lou Holtz might have said.

Marcus Johnson, Assistant Offensive Line Coach (recently left for another school)
Sam McGrath, Assistant Linebackers Coach
Michael Hunter Jr., Assistant Defensive Backs Coach

And that doesn't include the other QC and Analyst positions.

Kambui clearly did a good job under Smith at both stops, because Smith is bringing him to a third stop together.

:smash:

the circular logic that follows this guy is mind numbing. simply being hired isn't validation that it was a good idea to hire them.

I like this move, he's had a down year this year but he's playing on the worst team of the league so hopefully this get's him rejuvenated and he performs to his normal standard with the CBJ. He's a good for this team with how he plays.

Also, apparently, we beat out Boston for him as well.

Miami (OH) Redhawks (Basketball Official Thread)

buckeyemania11
I think there is probably some truth to the A10 coaches claim that power programs are avoiding scheduling mid major teams OOC that may be capable of stealing bids. They either schedule the mid majors that are already likely going to make the tourney anyway or low majors who would never have any shot at an auto bid. Problem is the MAC is more on the higher end of the "low major" category so this doesn't really apply to a Miami Ohio type team.
