RIP Lou Holtz, who may have given the greatest pre-game speech in football history before the Catholics vs. Convicts game:
"You have an afternoon to play, a lifetime to remember, but you do me one favor: Save Jimmy Johnson's ass for me."
Louis Leo “Lou” Holtz, legendary college football coach, Hall of Famer, bestselling author, and one of America’s most influential motivational voices, has passed away at the age of 89 in Orlando, Florida, surrounded by family. Born January 6, 1937, in Follansbee, West Virginia, Holtz rose from humble beginnings to become one of the most respected figures in college athletics. Over a remarkable five‑decade career, he led college programs at William & Mary, NC State, Arkansas, Minnesota, Notre Dame, and South Carolina. He transformed every team he inherited and captured the 1988 National Championship with the Fighting Irish. Holtz was preceded in death by his beloved wife of more than 50 years, Beth, with whom he shared a life grounded in faith, devotion, and service.
Holtz is remembered for his enduring values of faith, family, service, and an unwavering belief in the potential of others. His influence extended far beyond the football field through the Holtz Charitable Foundation and the many players, colleagues, and communities shaped by his leadership. He is survived by his four children, nine grandchildren, and two great‑grandchildren. Funeral arrangements, including a Mass of Christian Burial at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart at the University of Notre Dame, will be announced as details are finalized.
The Holtz Family
Alysa Liu’s father was persecuted by the CCP for the Tiananmen Square protests and fled to America
His daughter became a world-class figure skater and refused to skate for the CCP when they tried to recruit her
She just won the gold medal for Team USA 🇺🇸
BREAKING - Conservatives are now applauding the women’s U.S. hockey team after they stood arm in arm singing the national anthem after dominating Canada for gold, with many pointing out the sharp contrast between them and other Team USA athletes who trashed the U.S. only to lose.
I run a business. A sports bar, JJ's Place. Yesterday 80% of the bar wanted the Turning point halftime show. The rest wanted Bad Bunny. To accommodate I put the TV's on half and half. The 20% started canceling the orders, taking to social media calling me a racist, being disrespectful to my staff, and leaving 1 ⭐️ reviews on Google and Yelp. Mind you the 80% who wanted the Turning Point halftime show weren't happy that Bad Bunny stayed on, but they didn't leave me a bad review, take to social media, cancel their orders, or disrespect my staff. It has become impossible to run a business. I support 3 generations of my family on a sole income, and try to accommodate everyone. The bar business is not what it used to be. Sad day.💔
Unbelievable 🚨
Dow Jones up over (1,200) pts & went over (50K) today for the first time ever
Gas prices at the lowest in (5) yrs
Inflation under (3%)
Trillions of foreign investment
Nearly all of the energy sector back online
The economy is back & the media's ignoring it
.@RealTomHoman: "I wish every one of you could put that gun on your hip, put that Kevlar vest on, go out there and put up with what they put up with. Considering the hate, the rhetoric, the attacks — I think they're performing remarkably, and I'm proud of them."
🚨 BREAKING: President Trump just put a reporter in her place.
REPORTER: Are you ready to go to war with Chicago?
TRUMP: When you say something like that, darling, that’s fake news. Listen. Be quiet. Listen. You never listen. That’s why you’re only second-rate. We’re not going to war… we’re going to clean up the cities so five people aren’t dying there every weekend. That’s not war – that’s common sense.
@DerrickEvans4WV The president doesn’t make arrests. Law enforcement will arrest people that break the law and they broke the law. Funny how that works.
@MAGAVoice I’m good with that. It’s ridiculous we need to make a law when it’s already written in the constitution.
Judges are real problem. They refuse to uphold the law.
@ClayTravis@SteveKerr Thanks for the open invitation to sneak into an arena for a @warriors game without a ticket and be able to sit next to you on the bench without fear of having security remove me. NBA is not real basketball so I won’t waste my time but others might enjoy a freebie
🚨 The Left conveniently “forgot” Barack Obama personally awarded Border Czar Tom Homan a medal for deporting criminal aliens.
Karoline Leavitt just reminded them, with receipts.
Same job, different president!
