Lou Holtz on CFL - Quote
Lou Holtz makes sense for once. When talking about Texas and the reason why they've had success for the past few years (whether it's the coaching or the talent on the team AKA Vince Young/Colt McCoy) he said:
"You can't win without good players, but you can lose with them. That's where coaching comes in."
This can be perfectly applied to Michigan's situation the last 2 years. Once we get our players, that's where RR's coaching will come in.
Let's do this thing.

I clicked on this link expecting Lou to spout off some hilarity about the Canadian Football League. Oh well.
January 5th, 2010 at 3:20 PM ^
i guess i'm an idiot too
January 5th, 2010 at 3:25 PM ^
I, too , am an idiot.
Maybe I just wanted to LOL at the idea of him trying to say "Toronto Argonauts"

I expected to hear something along the lines of, "Men, I remember when I was an assistant coach with the Saskatchewan Roughriders and nobody thought we could beat Winnipeg..."

Now that's an interview worth watching.
January 5th, 2010 at 4:18 PM ^
... anywhere close to Lou's face if he ever said the word Saskatchewan. That would be a spitty mess.

Where did you get that killer picture?
January 5th, 2010 at 4:09 PM ^
This is funny. I used CFBL yesterday to avoid this very problem after initially typing CFL.

The "CFL" abbreviation is kind of taken already.
I didn't even know what the name of this ESPN program was. I just always thought of it as "the show with Holtz and May."

I also thought it was the Canadian Football League, instead of more vacuous nonsense from Lou about nothing.
Good coaching can make a team better - thanks Lou

what a cultural disappointment.
January 5th, 2010 at 3:33 PM ^
Lets keep in mind that Dr. Lou has a sign on the wall next to his bed that reads:
-PANTS BEFORE SHOES-
I would rather trust in advice from Corky in Life Goes On-
January 5th, 2010 at 4:53 PM ^
is that he could accidentally follow its advice when he's undressing to go to bed.

How can a league have two teams named the Rough Riders? Oh, wait. The Saskatchewan team is the Roughriders. And by the way, how can you take any league seriously that has a team in Saskatchewan? Even the NHL isn't there.
January 5th, 2010 at 3:37 PM ^
Lou is pretty great
January 5th, 2010 at 3:41 PM ^
Ohhhhhh, that's what was missing. We needed PLAYERS, got it now.
January 5th, 2010 at 3:55 PM ^
I know this is going to make me sound like a jerk, but I couldn't help but read that quote and hear Holtz spitting and mushing his way through them in my head. But for once, I do have to agree with his analysis that good coaches take good talent and make it better; bad coaches take good talent and either waste it or simply do nothing with it.

When I saw the title to this post I thought it had to do with recruiting Canadians.
