Quick Facts: Chad is the son of Skip Holtz (head football coach at Louisiana Tech, former coach of South Florida…*involuntary shudder remembering September 3rd, 2011*) and the grandson of Lou Holtz (legendary Notre Dame head football coach who won a championship in 1988). He walked on to the team this season and appears to be a 6’5″ forward from Louisiana. Also, the picture above is definitely not Chad Holtz, but someone captioned it as such and I thought it was very funny, so I included it. This is actually a picture of Notre Dame women’s basketball’s starting point guard, Lindsay Allen.

Chad’s Twitter is pretty barren.

His only original tweet:

Besides that, the rest of Chad’s profile consists of retweets about Notre Dame or his dad’s Louisiana Tech team.

Chad’s personal Twitter brand is basically nonexistent. Hats off to him for keeping a low, mysterious profile, as I’m sure his father and grandfather appreciate that lack of negative publicity that could come from Chad firing off anything offensive.
