We welcome University of Notre Dame football players Frank Stams and Wes Pritchett, members of the 1988 National Championship team, to the show to reminisce and share their thoughts on Coach Lou Holtz.

The two expand on Lou’s leadership, vision, attention to detail, and consistency.

Wes explains how he came to appreciate Lou more as he grew into a man with his own family. He recounts Lou’s Three Rules for Life.

Frank and Wes share anecdotes and talk about the team’s chemistry.

Our apologies, some of the audio is rough. I’d encourage you to stick with it.
