Skip Holtz

[dawg80]

Many of you would prefer to skip Holtz, eh!

[rebelboi]

Is Lou Holtz an option?

[Dawgmatic]

Only if we make Polident an official sponsor.

I've also heard that his O looked exactly the same at ECU and USF, run right , run left, pass, then punt. In other words, he may delegate but does he dictate the style?

He probably does. I bet he's a lot like Dooley... likes to micromanage the game.

He definitely wouldn't be wheels off like Franklin, but I bet he could win a lot of CUSA games, win a couple of championships, and go to a lot of bowl games. But he would probably never get us to 12-0... but who has?

Maybe this is part of the holtz deal! Would be nice!

No no no. We need somebody fierce who like high flying offense and violent killer instinct defense that loves Tech. Hmmm. Who do we know like that???

[RougeDawg]

From the CUSA board:

His good defenses were due to our DC, probably not Holtz.

His last year at South Florida, when they only won 3 games I think, the defensive coordinator was in his first year. That note from the CUSA Board may be right on target.

No on Skip Holtz. He is a proven loser at the head coach position. If we wanted to recycle damaged goods, then we should have went after Petrino. I'm sure he would have much rathered La.Tech over a Western Kentucky. Since we didn't, someone mentioned Rattay.........

[CorneyDawg]

If Skip is the man at least we can change from playing "cotton-eyed Joe" to " Skip to my Lou" during the game.

Skip eventually squeaked out a little bit of success at ECU then failed at USF. No thank you!.. I would much prefer a coach that can bring some fresh life to Tech, not someone who already showed he can't cut it

Skip for A.D. and Bobo for H.C. ! ! !

[bulldog95]

Meh. Doesn't excite me at all.

Lets see 5 straight bowl games and won CUSA in back to back years 08-09. Yea real loser. Most of you would have slobbered at the thought of Skip Holtz before he took the USF job. If he wins football games thats all I care about. Hopefully he hires an OC who likes to keep it uptempo.

I just don't want to lose a minimum of 5 games per year. That's what Holtz also offers. I just don't see him taking us to the next level. I could see him keeping us competitive, winning some games, and making some bowls, but I don't see him taking La Tech to the next level.

The next level for me is just stringing together three winning seasons in row!
