State remained unbeaten for the sea-son and for its lifetime series againstN. C. State, but the Nittany Lionsneeded all the weapons in their arsenalto escape the Wolfpack. A 27-yard runby jarring John Cappelletti midway inthe fourth quarter gave the 17-pointfavorites a 35-29 victory, their ninthof the season.

Attending To Paper Work

When Lou Holtz was 16, he onceasked to borrow his family’s car.“Where are you going?” his father

asked.“Oh, I don’t know. We’re just going

to drive somewhere,” he replied.“But if you don’t know where you’re

going,” the elder Mr. Holtz wondered,“how will you know when you’ve got-ten there?”The moral is that one should always

have clearly-defined goals toward whichhe strives. It is a moral with applica-tions both for major-college football,which Mr. Holtz coaches quite success-fully at North Carolina State Univer-sity, and for business in general.

Intercollegiate football is big busi-ness today requiring sizeable invest-ments in player scholarships, coaches’salaries, equipment, travel, recruiting,and myriad other necessities. And,like most businesses, football faces ris-ing costs and must control expenses toshow a profit.As a result, the contemporary foot-

ball coach must concern himself withorganization, budgeting, personnel,public relations, and motivation of thecoaches and athletes who labor in hisprogram.He remains very much a coach, re-

sponsible for contributions in variousdegrees to the development of his ath-letes, but he is not unlike the businessexecutive who must be mindful ofsound management principles.

In Mr. Holtz’s case, he relies on aphilosophy and an organization thathe developed through years of experi-ence as an assistant coach and a headcoach.

“I never took any business or man-agement courses in college,” said thehistory and physical education gradu—Ith Odf Kent State University. “I wish

a .

“Whenever I talk to businessmen,especially during the past six monthswhen I’ve been asked to speak on mo-tivation and attitude to several man-agement audiences, I try to ask themabout their ideas of management. Butthey always want to talk football,” hesaid, smiling.

“I do know that organization is thevehicle that helps you get where youwant to go,” said the 36-year—old coach,whose organization last season resultedin an 8-3-1 record, a 49-13 win overWest Virginia in the Peach Bowl, rank-ing as the nation’s 17th-best team, andAtlantic Coast Conference coach of theyear honors for Mr. Holtz.

This season, Holtz’ Wolfpack hasbeen even more successful, winning theACC title with a 6—0 record, and finish-ing the campaign at 8-3 overall andwith a date to meet the University ofKansas in the Liberty Bowl on Decem-ber 17.

“Organizing does not come easy tome, but if I were running a multi-mil-lion-dollar corporation I would run itthe same way I run our football pro-gram at North Carolina State,” hesaid. “Personnel and responsibility arevery important.”

In both his assistant coaches andhis players, Mr. Holtz looks for talentand character. For his assistants, hehas definitive job descriptions—he callsthem “people statements”—that stateclearly what he expects from them interms of job responsibility, workinghours, loyalty, and the like. And he tellsthem what they can expect from himin return.“Character is especially important,”

he said. “A head coach cannot be withhis assistants all the time, but if he hashired men with character he can becertain they are conducting themselvesand their work properly.“Character is the number one re-

quirement in the athletes we recruit

for North Carolina State University,”he added. “We can teach an athletewith native intelligence and ability oursystem of football, but we cannot teachhim all he will need to know to dealwith people now and later in his life.”

Morale is important, he feels. It doesnot happen by accident.Each of the coaches on Mr. Holtz’s

staff has clearly-defined duties. At staffmeetings—which are scheduled “whenwe have something to discuss”—onecoach takes minutes of the meetings.These are filed for future reference.

The Smile of Victory

Page 6: lv.03.3;A. u ¢ ..o1.;zith.‘filawnb v.¢va4~:i.nu(In;3:On€¦ · Liberty Bowl Comparisons N.C. State vs. Kansas 1973 RESULTS N. C. STATE KANSAS NCSU (-8—3) OPP. KAN. (7-3-1)

To prevent meetings that dissolve in-to problem-solving sessions, althoughmajor problems are considered as theneed arises, Mr. Holtz insists that hisstaff handle problems in a set manner.

“First, they must define the prob-lem exactly. Then they must list thepossible solutions. Finally, they muststate the solution that they recommend.

“I think anyone will find that if theygo through these steps, they can solve95 percent of the problems themselves,”he said.The details of a major-college foot-

ball program “can drive you berserk, ifyou let them,” Mr. Holtz said. Unlessyou have a system that is designed tohelp you handle them, as he does.

“I look at anything we’re planning,be it a football trip, or a coachingclinic, or a promotional program, as ifI was an outsider who knew nothingabout it,” he said.“And I ask all the questions that an

outsider would ask. The result is acompilation of the information thatwe need to provide.”He learned that approach from Paul

Dietzel, the University of South Caro-lina athletics director and head foot-ball coach for whom Mr. Holtz onceworked. “It has helped me as much asanything,” he said.From Woody Hayes, the venerable

Ohio State coach, he learned anothervaluable lesson about reality.

“I learned that you can become in-toxicated with success,” he said. “Andthat you have no more friends whenyou win than when you lose. You havemore supporters when you win, but asany businessman or politician who hashad a tough year knows, the band-wagon can empty quickly.”About another aspect of life that

coaches share with busy executives—demanding schedules that frequentlyresult in precious few moments withfamilies—Mr. Holtz learned from For-est Evashevski, then at Iowa.“He told me that absence is to love

as air is to fire,” Mr. Holtz said. “Alittle stimulates it, but too much canput it out.”He said he considered it important

to give his four children equal amountsof love and discipline, rather than“trying to give them everything theywant just because you’ve been away somuch.”

Discipline is an inherent part of Mr.Holtz’s football program.

“Anticipation is 95 percent of dis-cipline,” he said. “Anyone can solvea problem after it arises. I believe it’simportant to anticipate problems be-fore they arise.”For two weeks each summer, the ar-

ticulate coach travels to Ohio, where hemanages a small supermarket for hisin-laws so they can share a vacationtogether.

“It’s a great experience,” he said.“I’ve learned about business and aboutpeople. I’ve learned that you can’t leaveanything to chance, and that peopleare basically honest unless you temptthem. Figures don’t lie,” he added,“but liars figure. I don’t think you arebeing fair to your employees if yougive them a chance to be dishonest, asin cheating on an expense account.

“Motivation is important to footballand to business,” he said, “but we aretalking about different types of moti-vation.

“In football, we want to motivatethe individual to improve his skillsand to excel. But we also want tomotivate him to forget personal gloryand work for the team’s goals.

Motivation, plus good organizationand leadership, are key ingredients tosuccess, he believes.

“All of our successes and failuresare the result of how we communicatewith people and how we make deci-sions,” Mr. Holtz said. “Communicationis very important. And decisions mustbe made on the basis of the facts, withpersonal feelings removed.”

Public relations, also, is important,especially for North Carolina StateUniversity football. Three other ma-jor schools belonging to the same At-lantic Coast Conference compete near-by, and competition for the entertain-ment dollar has grown more keen inrecent years.“The Athletics Department gives us

a general budget. Athletics DirectorWillis Casey and I work on it together.You have to stay within your budget.You have to decide what will give youthe best return for your expenditures.Other details in the Operation of a

football program are not overlookedby Mr. Holtz, who has also coached atOhio State, Iowa, Kent State, Williamand Mary, Connecticut, and SouthCarolina.

“Everything we do gives others animpression of us,” he said. “That istrue of business—what your employeesand you do impresses customers, oneway or another.“Our secretaries are told how we

want them to answer the phone andgreet visitors. For every letter thatcomes in—and we get a lot of mail—aresponse is mailed back to the writer.“We recognize that our players and

staff members are individuals, and werespect and treat them as such,” Mr.Holtz said. “But we have standards,and reasons for them.”

Mr. Holtz sees himself as a “trouble-shooter,” without whom the organiza-tion he has developed would function.“I feel that if I have done a good job,the organization would go on properly

:3Movie Star Richard Crenno Visit: With Holtz

even if I were away for four months,”he said.“We have a chain of command, andthe staff knows what it is. Everythingis delegated. I am responsible for theoperation, but I don’t usually step intoa particular situation unless the otherscannot find the solution.”Two signs in his comfortable office

in the Everett N. Case Athletics Cen-ter guide him daily in all that he does.One says, “Make me feel good and Iwill produce.” The other asks the sim-ple question, “Will it help me win?”

His associates describe Mr. Holtzas dedicated and knowledeable but hestill says after some games, “Well, Iblew it, but I’m learning,” which in-dicates a touch of humility, as well. Heis a promoter, a super-salesman for in-tercollegiate football, and the possessorof a football mind that borders on bril-liant.He is demanding and sometimes tem-

permental, but always fair and alwayscognizant of the needs of the youngmen he coaches. Always, as if to an-nounce that he knows he is not yet asclose to perfection as he desires to be,he seeks out others and asks their ad-v1ce.He speaks of his team’s goals. To

have the finest team possible within theframework of the University. Alwaysto be respected by opponents and fans.To be a team players are proud to bea part of.And of his personal goals. “We all

want to be accepted,” he said. “I wantto be happy, also, in what I do. Hap-piness comes from within yourself. It’simportant to me.”Important to him also is the experi-

ence of the athletes he coaches. “Wewant to win. We also want the youngmen who are here with us to leave thisUniversity with a great feeling abouttheir experiences in school and in foot-ball. ’

It is a noble goal for this coach-executive, who learned a long time agoto know where he was going.And who constantly studies how to

get there.

THREE

DECADES

OF SERVICE

Willis Casey is in his fifth year asDirector of Athletics, but he is by nomeans a newcomer to the North Caro-lina State athletics scene, having beenassociated with the school in various ca-pacities for some 28 years.

In diligently sewing the university fornearly three decades, Casey has beenboth a coach and an administrator, andhas brought recognition and esteem tothe institution during each of his manyassignments.

His first position with the school wasas swimming coach, starting in 1946.Inheriting a virtually non-existent pro-gram, he quickly lifted it to nationalprominence and maintained the highlevel throughout his 22-year stint. Alongwith his coaching duties, he filled manyother roles, including that of assistant totheODirector of Athletics, supervisor ofthe school’s various athletics facilities,and manager of 36 major basketballtournaments.Many of the recommendations and

rules adopted by the National colle-giate Athletics Association in the pastcouple of years that were presented bythe Atlantic Coast Conference wereworded by Casey.

“There is no doubt that intercolle-giate athletics are in a state of changeand we have to adapt and get in stepwith these changing situations,” saysCasey. “Many practices in athletics are

14

Athletics Director Willis Caseycontinued because they have alwaysbeen done that way.”

While an advocate of change when itwill enhance the Wolfpack’s program,Casey is a firm believer in not doingthings that will hurt unilaterally or onthe conference level.

“Any of the so called different ideasthat I have, or will suggest, are to bedone on a national level. We do notwant to handicap State or the ACC byputting further restrictions on ourselvesthat won’t be passed nationally,” addsCasey.One restriction that is hurting many

colleges is the spiraling cost of intercol-legiate athletics. Tuition, meals, hous-ing, travel, recruiting, equipment andfacilities, plus cost of living salary in-creases, continue to rise with many insti-tutions operating their programs in thered.

“I don’t understand how so many ofthe schools that continually draw up-wards of 40,000 and 50,000 spectatorsfor a football game can be operating atlosses. There must be areas where thereis extravagance,” says Casey, who hasthe Wolfpack program operating in theblack.“We operate in the black with a tight

budget and we by no means run one ofthe more affluent programs,” says theformer Pack swimming coach.

In fact, the Wolfpack program is

probably unique in that none of themoney from the home games in CarterStadium can be used in the operatingbudget. When Carter Stadium was con-structed in 1965 and ready for the 1966football season, one-half of the cost wasraised by contributions from WolfpackClub members and friends. The otherhalf was set up to be paid off by bonds.Other than the visiting team’s share ofthe gate, which generally is 50%, and thenormal operating expense of putting onthe game, which runs around 12%, allincome from admissions goes to pay offthe mortgage. The indebtedness isscheduled to be paid off in the year2002, but could be sooner if the Packdraws well over the next decade.

“We could take care of a lot of needsin our non-revenue sports program, andimprove our physical facilities if we hadthe football revenue from home games,as do so many of our rivals and theteams that are continually among thenationally ranked squads,” notes Casey.

The 1972-73 season offers further tes-timony that the Wolfpack athletics pro-gram, as the result of Casey’s strongdirection, is very much on the upswing.Conference championships were fash-ioned in basketball, baseball and swim-ming, and the football team participatedin the Peach Bowl, finishing 17thnationally.

N. C. State’s All-Time Team

(Note: Poll Was Taken In 1969 And Does Not Include Lost Four Wolfpack Teams)
