One of the great college football coaches, Lou Holtz, took five failing college football teams to a bowl game within two years of becoming the coach.He stated that the keys to success include first, Do Your very Best; second, Do Right and third, Treat others as You would like to be Treated (Do Right, 2006). Coach Holtz backed up his commitment to these values, e.g. when two first string players were late to the team dinner for a fourth time, he sent these players back to South Bend even though his team, Notre Dame, was playing USC in one of the biggest games of the season (Lundy, 1994).
