Lou Holtz has never been one to hold his tongue about anything. If he has something on his mind, he’s going to say it.
So it honestly isn’t that shocking he threw yet another jab in Ryan Day’s direction without actually being prompted to do so.
He responded to a tweet on social media questioning whether he would attend Notre Dame’s championship game against Ohio State. Instead of just saying yes or no, he decided that this was the perfect time to poke Ohio State’s head coach.
“If Notre Dame doesn’t win, it’s because we want to preserve Ryan Day’s job. I was originally going to be at the game in spirit, but now I’ll be dragging my body along as well,” he said.
So petty. But it’s Lou Holtz — this is what we should expect from him.

Holtz and Day have had it out for each other for a little more than a year now. The last time Ohio State and Notre Dame played each other in September 2023, Holtz called Day out and questioned his team’s toughness.
“He has lost to Alabama, Georgia, Clemson, Michigan twice — and everybody who beats them does so because they’re more physical than Ohio State. I think Notre Dame will take that same approach,” Holtz said.
Well, obviously, Day took offense to that. And after Ohio State won the game by running the ball in at the goal-line with just a second left on the clock, he fired back at Notre Dame’s former coach.
“I’d like to know where Lou Holtz is right now,” Day said in his postgame interview. “What he said about our team, I cannot believe. This is a tough team right here. We’re proud to be from Ohio. It’s always been Ohio against the world.”
That’s when it all started. Obviously, things haven’t turned down between these two since then.
Day was asked if he’d spoken to Holtz and patched things up. The answer was no. And Holtz clearly hasn’t let go of things on his end, either.
No matter the result here, don’t expect to see these two chatting it up any time soon.
