Truly a great coach and a nice person. There would not be a UofL football program without his dream.

I legit got misty eyed when I first heard the news. Rest easy, Coach!
He sat across aisle from me at kickoff game against Auburn in Atlanta. The whole game people kept coming up and getting autographs and selfies. The man was friendly and pleasant to everyone. Just a class human being.
He is as important to Louisville football as Denny Crum is to Louisville basketball.

Because of Howard 36 yrs ago, the big blue person I married became a huge UofL fan. TG, for Howard. 😉 Many great memories of old Cardinal Stadium. The greatest was the trip to the Fiesta Bowl and kicking Bama butt! RIP Howard.
I remember, like it was yesterday, sitting in the aluminum bleachers at old Cardinal stadium watching Bob Weber's final game. Their was serious talk that U of L was going to go down to D 2 for their football program. A guy younger than me said his father said that Howard was going to be our next coach. I thought he was full of it but he was right. Howard saved us and IS the reason we have what we have. Thank you Howard, rest in peace.
Let's not forget about Bill Olson. He was my biology teacher at Westport High
School. He was also the BB coach before being on the staff at UofL.
