Lou Holtz Caught on Camera Rants Against New Intern

[Punk4Life408]

u jerking me around lol

[Hootizl]

lmao. this is what happen when you try to get a coot coach who got his ass whipped by his rival time and time again (including a 63-17 laugher) to interview. Hope she didn't get spat on

[MrFreethrowchamp21]

@Hootizl lmao 70-33

[DigitalAgeGrunt]

Typical white old money male, feels the world's on his time. I would have told him to go fuck himself, evil little koala bear looking motherfucker!

[Sox05Fan]

@DigitalAgeGrunt Its not old money if you make it yourself.

[moragabombsquad]

Typical brown-nosing white girl ends up cowering and even crying at the end. Pathetic. I was glad to see this, as I have had to work with far too many butt-kissing girls in the workplace and the classroom. They lower the bar for everyone else, and then the ego-tripping control freaks with the power expect the rest of us to kiss their fat asses. No thank you. PS Lou Holtz is a retard. Can you imagine him and Shannon Sharpe commentating an entire football game together? LOL

[ManagFTW66]

fuck him he talks like he has load of shit in mouth...mumbles all over the place cant stand him. maybe he had a stroke and doesnt know it..please retire him

[AUTIGER4LIFE26]

What a dick! I don't know how she kept her cool,I would have told him to shove it up his ass!

[spiniton13]

This is what happens when you get all the money and power at these Colleges !

Fu&K him and Joe Paterno too !! ASSHOLE !

[Ntcbigguy717]

Drewbul1 is a ND fan

[tuffasgong]

what a fucking asshole, he is a drunk piece of shit and god knows why he has a job

[raceystacey32566]

Lou Holtz you should be ashamed of yourself! Your nothing but a bully. You should be the one to appologize, not her. Wonder if I can send this to CNN or Fox. Maybe they should play this for the entire world to see. How would that make you feel?

[excaliburtation]

this video makes me want to drive around south bend with a big "FUCK LOU HOLTZ" sign.

[ndlosers]

HYPOCRISY (def.) - a pretense of having a virtuous character, morals, or religious beliefs that one does not really possess. Example: Notre Dame.

HYPOCRITE (def.) - Lou Holtz.

[meagerviewer]

If it were an HOUR, I could see him getting upset. But it was FIVE MINUTES! This was probably before Lou's days on ESPN, because anyone in broadcasting knows that it takes more than 60 seconds to get ready and do an interview. "I told you one minute and I've been standing here for five." Wow, Lou, what humility. I never understood why so many people hated him until now.

[meagerviewer]

I love it how people take Lou's side. Yes, he's so important that God forbid it takes a few minutes to get the camera ready. Yes, she deserved it because she was just trying to get him to standby. His time is so important that no one should DARE waste it. Even unintentionally. Lou Holtz is a god and the rest of us are just insects. Why should he have to wait for anything? He coached Notre Dame!!

[Jiddy12345]

All that pompous ass does is argue with Mark May over who is the bigger pompous ass. Fuck him and fuck Notre Dame.

[AAAO88]

Thumbs up if you just watched this because you heard about it on 97.1 the fan!

[FIREYOGUNZ4456]

WOW. Everyone here needs to calm down haha. It seems to me Lou was really busy at a conference and the man is probably really busy as he was the HEAD COACH of the Gamecocks. The "intern" probably said they were ready for the interview and instead the station wasn't even close to his segment. That's why you don't waste a man's time. Especially when he's at a university sponsored event. And if that's what you call a rant, you all need to grow up :) ... let the hate on me begin

[schmidt0221]

its hard to hear him with all his spitting and lispppp noises, ugly old fuck!

[Apocalypse3434]

He was late for Bingo night.

[greymoose1000]

This is the douchebag that the ND DOMERS admire so much in South Bend!

[VeteransAgainstKonop]

Looks like Holtz is still upset that he got CRUSHED by the University of Toledo 42 - 12, in the Tangerine Bowl, back in 1970, when Holtz was the coach at William & Mary.

Toledo put the Smack-Down on his team.

[StewartLucrative]

Is this guy a fucking retard?

[hogandaas]

When he preaches attention to detail he expects it from everyone.

[Potsie791]

@hogandaas No, when he preaches treat others with respect, he should practice what he preaches! Wake up!

[bndulaney]

derp

[gvillegmcck]

That's pretty sad. Just have to remind myself that Lou Holtz is really freaking old just like when my Grandpa freaks out at the waiter when he swears up and down the steak he ordered is over-done.

[marnold6879]

Holtz is an asshole, always has been...biggest phoney in college football...just the fact he goes on Sean Hannity all the time should prove that theory.

[Potsie791]

@marnold6879 You're doggone right. Holtz is a disgrace, not only to college football, but to sports in general.

[nonicknamekid2010]

What a pussy can't even look her in the face

[Theflaca2]

i love lou holtz, he is a nice guy.

[Potsie791]

@Theflaca2 Lou Holtz is nothing more than a phony jerk!!

[rulingsupreme13]

COACH HOLTZ IS AN AMERICAN HERO!

[Potsie791]

@rulingsupreme13 WHAT?!! Holtz is an obnoxious, cold, callous jerk! He is a phony hypocrite. All he cares about is image. I encourage you to read a book called "Under the Tarnished Dome" by Don Yaeger and Doug Looney about how he put winning over the health of injured players. Next, read the August 27, 1990 issue of SI (you can go to the SI Vault website) about how he actually told a player named Steve Huffman to play hurt instead of getting shoulder surgery. Humor me.

[Kparme]

Whatever, they wasted his time and clearly gave him false information regarding what the interview was about. Moreover, this a 70+ year old man. Do you think he has time to deal with the incompetence of some news station. Lou's a champion and has molded young men to be leaders in a wide array of pursuits. Tell your intern to stop crying and go win one for the Gipper!

[Potsie791]

@Kparme You know, that's pretty harsh. Lou Holtz may be an excellent coach, but as a person, he's as cold as they get. First, how do you know that they gave him false information. From what I saw, he wouldn't even let the intern defend herself. Is he that cold and impatient that he got restless after only FIVE MINUTES? He was dealing with an intern, lighten up. He could have given them a little more time and been a little, no, a lot nicer. What planet are you on?

[drawdys]

he acts drunk

[killakotton]

what a piece of shit Lou Holtz is. He's has an ego problem.

[oliver915]

what an asshole...

[1944ACE1944]

damn republican coaches

[GCOCK4LIFE02]

Well, they all should have identified themselves...Lou is a quick man who doesn't want bs and regardless the amateurs who were to interview him should have known....snooze ya lose...

[GCOCK4LIFE02]

Well, they all should have identified themselves...Lou is a quick man who doesnt watn bs and regardless the amateurs who were to interview him should have known....snooze ya lose...

[Appleosu]

This is incredibly disappointing to me, I'm a big Lou fan and after this it will be hard to look at him the same. But, this video does not show what happened beforehand, therefore we don't know what transpired moments before the interview. She works in television so she probably twisted the truth a little bit about time to get him to come over. For a very busy man that might have been having a bad day, that's all it may take to set the guy off. If he would have slapped her I may think otherwise

[hankseptember]

@Appleosu she will thank Lou for becoming a better person ^^

[livestrong1989]

what did she say to get him there in the first place? sounds as if she may have misrepresented herself/lied to get an interview. don't fault the man if he was lied to. video clips never tell the whole story.

[sweeney2321]

when did this happen? I am stunned he was like this.

[drawdys]

Is he drunk?

[NathanJohnVolk]

why was he upset in the first place? anyone know?

[rayalvarado2010]

Sad. I searched "Lou Holtz" on YouTube because I wanted to be inspired. Instead, this clip appeared near the top of the search results so I reluctantly watched it, hoping it wouldn't be that bad. Unfortunately, it was. The poor intern was basically run over again... and again... and again... She was practically defenseless and he just kept ripping into her. Well, I'm still a fan of Lou, but I'm glad this video made its way online because everyone needs humbled now and then. This is Lou's turn.

[rodejryou]

Too many whiners here!!

Lou's probably got back-to-back-to-back interviews like this.

I hate when people call me to a meeting and find out they're 10 min. from even arriving. He probably could have fit in 2 other promised interviews in that timeframe.

I'd be ticked off too; if you saw local news wasn't even to sports...and you know they go to commercial for 2.5 minutes BEFORE sportscaster comes on and Lou's supposed to just hang? This is not ESPN (his employer), it's some podunk local.

[BassinK9]

Anybody who's been around Holtz knows he's a first class prima donna and has been all through his career. All this crap about being a "people person" and "world class motivational speaker" is a joke to anybody who's worked for him or with him.

[tedder1931]

This is very sad to see.

[amd2q9]

Lou Holtz is actually retarded. Like he's an actual person with downs syndrome. The fact that his lisping ass got a job in television blows my mind. I can't stand watching him ramble on during his segments. "STATE NEEDS TO PUT HTE FOOTBALL IN THE END ZONE MORE TIME THAN THE OTHER TEAM IF THEY WANT TO WIN THIS FOOTBALL GAME." Thanks Lou for your brilliant analysis.

[TheOwllake]

Wow, that's messed up. Really disappointing.

[elnocho3]

What an idiot, he sounds like forest gump

[randy0987]

Elmer Fudd was about to pimpslap dat bitch. Dont hate.

[proffromgview]

Holtz is a moron. In a normal world, who in their right mind would care about an ugly, lisping dwarf? He should be cleaning gutters or something.....He's just lucky anyone cares about what he thinks. What a hypocrite, always talking about class and treating people right, and this little schmuck acts like this?? Fuck him.

[hisel13]

"The person who needs your love and compassion the most is often the one who deserves it the least." -quote by Lou Holtz. I love Lou Holtz. He was misled about the interview and was having a bad day. Cut him a break, nobody's perfect but Lou comes closer than most.

[manganzon23]

What an ass! Poor girl is just trying to do her job.

[VicInNocal]

@manganzon23 Screw that. I'm sick of the "I'm just doing my job" mentality in the world. This bitch tricked him into doing something he didn't want to do, and then she goes with the all too common & overplayed "I apologize", like that is going to do anything.  I don't even like Lou Holtz but he was right to be angry here & he didn't even blow up or berate her, so it's not even a big dea.

[manganzon23]

What an ass!

[banduril]

Dan Quinn has been telling about the world about this asshole for years.  he needs to help Dan get stevia famous

[ragekz]

Everyone has bad days...no shit, but not everyone acts like a pompous jerk to innocent people like that. The woman was doing nothing wrong and had nothing to do with why he was upset, and he took it all out on her like a big 80 year old baby. Guess that's what fame and fortune turns some people into.

[Drewbul1]

We all have our days, we all can be dicks,think this was fucked up of Lou,but none of us are perfect,We have all made someone feel like shit before,It is possible that Lou could have apologized off camera,no one knows.But don't hate the man cause he was an asshole in this incident, cause Ive met him before, and he was a pretty nice man, signed my hat shook my hand and told me to have a great day. There could have been many things wrong that day.Im sorry if i seem lame for defending,but im sorry.

[davidikard]

@Drewbul1......you know, I bet assholes are nice more often than they are assholes. If someone has the capacity to treat ANYONE like this EVER, then you are a piece of shit - END OF STORY. Good people dont act like this. I just happened upon this video. Im glad I now see this slobbering retard for what he really is...

[theREALpeto]

@Drewbul1 He never apologized to the intern. He just walked away like in the video. I know this b/c I know her and was watching it as it happened. Everyone has bad days, but that doesn't mean you have to make the people around you have a bad day.

[FIREYOGUNZ4456]

@theREALpeto Dude, ya'll edited the video to make it seem like he was ranting for like a minute, ya'll were probably wasting his time for longer than the video showed. He's upset because he needed a minute, ya'll rushed him over for the interview, and he was probably just standing there when he was already told the interview was ready. He was probably busy and felt disrespected by being lied to. Moral of the story, don't waste his time. And grow up, what Lou did there was far from a "RANT"

[proffromgview]

@Drewbul1 The guy is a hypocritical liar, who cares what he "told" you in public, he doesn't care about you, your hat, or anything. He's a malignant little dwarf.

[Derek9859]

@Drewbul1 he probably kissed your ass cause you're a fan...he got paid to kiss your ass and not to be a dick head to this girl who was just doing her job

[Drewbul1]

@Derek9859 like i said man, who knows. Nick Saban, Urban Meyer, Bobby Bowden, Joe Paterno, Pete Carrol, and other great coaches have all bitched someone out like this before, some weren't caught on camera, but Nick Saban and Urban Meyer both have completely bitched ppl out. shit happens.but ik it seems like im defending Lou, i think its pretty fucked up that he did this, i just really respect him as a coach, ive grown up a Carolina fan, and he was someone for me to look up to as a kid.

[GCOCK4LIFE02]

@Drewbul1 You said it and guys like Saban are the worst

[thehuntean117]

I now know who the REAL Lou Holtz is and he is a total jerk. I wouldn't believe one word out of hit mouth. Who does he think he is?

[gfinseth]

If he treats people like that in public when the camera is right there, can you imagine how he acts behind closed doors?

[Emily08102002]

Ha ha!!! If I were her I'd tell him "You know what?! You're a prick. We've decided we don't want to talk to you anymore, and we're gonna broadcast your tantrum instead."

[suwanee4712]

What a jackass!

[Uofoduckzz]

Give him a break, he had to go change his diaper.

[comediocre]

Does she start crying at 1:35?

[theREALpeto]

@comediocre Yes, she says I got reamed a new one and starts crying.

[Antinarella1]

I just saw Lou Holtz speak in Atlanta and he went on and on about his love for his wife (which I don't doubt) but, and this is in his words, "most of all you've got to treat everyone with respect. Everyone. From the janitor to the President." He specifically said that he used to treat those on the set with respect (no joke!) because they helped him be a better broadcaster!!

[dabrams966]

Most, if not all college athletes and coaches are douche bags - they think they are superior to everyone else. Can we just do away with college sports and leave it to simply getting an education?

[davidikard]

@dabrams966...Douchebags are not specific to Athletes and Celebrities, I PROMISE you. We just hear more about them bc they are on TV. As for your wish to do away with College sports.....are you crazy!?!?!? You must be from the Northeast?? Haha...take care.

[calumjlindsay]

what a cock!

[spiniton13]

To talk to anyone like that, let alone a young women is unexcusable ! All his accomplishments mean crap now. Some Hero, I can't wait to piss on his Statue

[PhilsCousinJay]

Lou Holtz is a dick. I directed his show in Columbia for a while. I quit because he was such a jackass. He never said a cross word to me because I'd have beat his ass, but he picked on the girls and toadies like it was going out of style.

[chatwizrd]

hahaha what a grumpy old fucker...

[sctvhound]

This was several years ago, in the first couple years of the Holtz era. Probably about 2000 or 2001.

[KriegerDesHasses]

thupid thenile old man

[brtdud7]

GET OFF MY LAWN

[mikeyfazed]

What an absolute creep.

[YourTypicalHunk]

Old people...gotta love 'em.

[Justmemamah]

The intern had nothing to do with what Holtz was told. She was just doing what she was told to do. "Forever" consisted of 5 freakin minutes. The man needs to get over himself and realize the world does not revolve around him and that talking to people like they are dogs is not okay. Karma is a b!t@$

[BillyJr68]

What a complete ass.

[netterstyl]

Bet it took longer than 5 minutes to clean up all the slobber.

[vozdemano]

Just your typical Asshole caught on tape thats all.

[TodaysRapSucks]

This intern is crying like she just witness George Dunham's explosive diarrhea in all its glory. Grubes is my leader.

[timmccrthy]

There's no context prior to the start of filming to show what irritated him.

[saxxtreme]

@timmccrthy If you were listening, he is complaining about having to wait to do an interview with a local tv station.

[timmccrthy]

@saxxtreme I obviously know what he's complaining about. What I mean is, we don't know what went on prior to this. For all we know they ambushed him at some fundraiser where he's just trying to relax, he agreed to it, then they started jerking him around and making him wait.

[pcleez]

made him sit around "forever?" he said it had been 5 minutes. god forbid lou holtz give up 5 minutes.

[SpeedFreaks2008]

Holtz puts the Cock in Gamecock

[BMoAcesUp]

Why are people getting on Holtz for? She lied about the interview, and made him sit around forever when he had things to do. It was her fault. She got what she deserved!!! A good life lesson!!!

[musikjr]

@BMoAcesUp You must not work in news - interns do what they're told. If the producer says one minute, she tells the guest one minute. Holtz has been doing this long enough to know that no one he's looking at has any control over show timing. He was being a dick for dick's sake, so drop the drama queen BS and quit saying he had to wait around "forever." Bet you're a Carolina fan too, aren't you...

[ztbutter2010]

Is Lou Holtz gonna have to choke a bitch?

[Masthope]

Just take him off of ESPN already. Not for being an asshole, but for being senile and idiotic.

[talkinturtles]

i don't care if they show all 5 minutes of the interview or not. sure, people hate to wait in life, but hey, things happen. he says himself he was asked to wait one and he had to wait five. gosh, the world might just come to an end! what a whiner. is he so important that his time is worth so much more than anyone else's? what a jerk for complaining and treating someone that way.

[vroomer07]

Everyone hates standing around waiting, and he had every right to be irritated. However, tearing into the intern when she doing nothing but her job and apologizing is just uncalled for.

The video was obviously edited, but Holtz is an jerk right from the beginning before the first cut.

[comfortstarr]

Holtz... the gift that keeps on giving. Even without the hill-jack accent, he's a hill-jack.

[waverydr069]

Yeah its amazing how everyone is jumping all over him. Obviously more happened than what is shown in this video. Did he overreact? Possibly, but without the rest of the video or the whole story, who knows?

[808pb]

Peto,

I'm going to reserve judgement for holtz and you until you run the whole five minute video. Guessing by the redacted footage you show, you had a crew that screwed the pooch and did not respect this guy's time. Lesson learned.

Now, show the whole video, please. And when you do, please report back to Deapspin and tell them how you have the editing ethics of Andrew Breitbart.

[hankseptember]

dammit,i love this man!

[DeputyMarshall]

Talks tough to young girls. What a brave man! What a hero! What a legend!

[DoktorStrangelove]

Holtz is, was, and will always be an arrogant, abusive, self-aggrandizing sack of crap.

[bonzerrrrr]

Typical A hole coach

[elmocoso]

What an athhole.

[rnunley441]

Sufferin succotash, what a dickface Lou Holtz is. Surprised he didnt short out this microphone with all that saliva he was spitting everywhere. Hes one stroke away from making my Saturdays more enjoyable.

[wwk68tig]

you're a great man, lou holtz. lol.......typical of a coach. always bullying people. try that on a grown man, asshat.

[Italianice32]

This shit happens all the time with coaches and the media.

[hameed]

typical notre dame dick

[DrGodfather14]

what a loser

[jonathanseal777]

just somebody trying to make him look bad.

[mkhill]

@jonathanseal777 I think he did a pretty good job doing that himself, pal.

[samherb1]

Lou is an asshole....google Damian Peter

[czervik]

Wow...what an ass. Making that girl cry - I hope he apologized.

[overshotfilms08]

wow :'( 

[Brandon73686]

Mark May still sucks

[Cougar2424]

He gets angry when his dentures start gumming up like that. He struck my mom because we ran out of Vanilla-Strawberry Swirl icecream.. but I think it was the dentures talking.

- Skip Holtz

[MSRamsay7884]

lout holtz is a sorry piece of crap. knows nothing about football and needs to quit espn.
