He was so good for the game. Quirky, nerdy, energetic, loved the game.... Love him or not, he was AWESOME for the game IMO. RIP Lou, we are better for having you in the sport.
Strong motivator of young men that really cared about people.
While I despised him at Notre Dame (mostly due for simply despising Notre Dame), he was a strong contributor to college football for well over 5 decades.
Not sure Jason Peter would agree with most of the posts. If you have time read Jason's book "Hero of the Underground" and read about the recruiting of his younger brother Damian by ND/Lou.
