Just a little over 32 years ago, one of the greatest offensive linemen to ever play for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish sent another Notre Dame legend a National Letter of Intent. The player was Aaron Taylor and the coach was Lou Holtz.
On Friday, Taylor published two of his recruiting letters from Notre Dame and Holtz. The first was a “typical” introduction and sales pitch for the university and what it can offer a student athlete during his collegiate years — as well as their time well after college is over. The second was the letter that held the grant-in-aid and national letter of intent — with some very specific instructions.
