He also made stops at NC State, Arkansas, Minnesota and South Carolina. However, most remember Holtz from his time at the University of Notre Dame.
Holtz helped guide the Fighting Irish to an undefeated season in 1988, which saw the school bring home its 11th National Championship. That also marked the school’s last perfect season.
