Hula Bowl Names Coaches
Lou Holtz of Notre Dame and Bobby Bowden of Florida State, two of the nation’s winningest football coaches, will coach opposing all-star teams in the 1997 Hula Bowl.
In announcing a long-term partnership with the American Football Coaches Association, Marcia Klompus, executive director of the Hula Bowl, outlined changes in the selection of coaches.
Beginning with the 1997 game, the national coach of the year winners from Division I-AA, II and III will serve as assistant coaches. In 1998, the Division I-A coach of the year from the previous year will serve as a Hula Bowl head coach.
