ESPN seems to promote itself
as being FOR the well being of college football.
And they hire Lou Holtz? A person who left allegations of cheating in his wake every time he exited a NCAA program whether it be Arkansas, Minnesota, Notre Dame or South Carolina?
Holtz is obviously not sitting on the ESPN set because he's a "throat," he's there because of his name and the fact he won a lot of football games.
However, I find it odd that ESPN (and other somewhat-balanced media outlets) have excused Holtz for his well-deserved reputation.
He does not look like a black hat and seems like a decent guy, but the record speaks for itself. On the original note, I didn't always agree with Alberts, but he brought something to the table rather than just a smile and a spew of B.S.
The 2-for-1 swap of Holtz and Howard for Alberts is a disservice to college football fans.
Good luck this weekend,
Paul
