Coach suffers fracture after collision with player

Associated Press

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Coach Lou Holtz vowed to become more involved next season in South Carolina's offense, but nobody expected him to break a leg doing it.

Holtz sustained a hairline fracture to his lower left leg Saturday while watching the offense practice goal-line situations, the university said Monday.

Holtz was crouched down when running back Cory Boyd inadvertently knocked him over.

The 67-year-old coach jumped right back up and continued practice, but later learned the extent of his injury. The fibula doesn't bear weight, however, so Holtz and his sore leg were back on the practice field Sunday.

I love this guy.  What a great motivator.  This is even better than JL bashing his head into a player's helmet (Kawikas? I cannot remember).

GO BULLS

I doubt that Coach Holtz "jumped right back up", come on the guy is older than Moses.

[Velcro]

JL did that in a few games last year and years past
