Jones denies rumor he's considering hiring
Lou Holtz
By the Associated Press (Dec. 31, 1996)
IRVING, Texas (AP) - Another day at Valley Ranch, another rumor
for Jerry Jones to put to rest.
The Dallas Cowboys' owner denied Monday that former Notre Dame
coach Lou Holtz is in the team's future.
"It amuses me that somebody has put Lou Holtz on the scene
with us just having won a Super Bowl and in the playoffs trying
to win another," Jones said.
Jones has said several times this year that head coach Barry
Switzer will be his coach next year and in the future.
"My goal with Barry Switzer is in the long term,"
Jones said. "Barry and I work so good together. We are on
the same page. I like what we are doing."
Jones added, "some media and some fans just won't give
it up."
