Brennan and Blaik to Try Business World
Two former football concers are today preparing for careers in the business world.
Terry Brennan, who was fired as head football coach at Notre Dame, will join a banking firm and Earl (Red) Blank, who said he was cutting while ahead, will be vice president of a manufacturing firm.
Ex-Notre Dame football coach Terry Brennan is looking to a new career in investment banking. He has said the coaching business was too "uncertain."
"I feel there is a better future in business," Brennan declared. "I think I can rule out coaching as an occupation in the time to come."
Brennan announced last night he would join the banking firm of Goldman, Sachs & Company in April.
"I want to learn all the phases of the business," he said. "My law background should help a bit"
Brennan received a law degree from De Paul University in 1953 He had attended night classes while working during the day.
"I have proven that I can coach," Brennan said, "but looking to the future and the uncertainties of coaching, I feel there is a better future in business."
Col. Earl (Red) Blak, who made Army football teams into national powers, has accepted a position as vice president and member of the management committee of the Avco Manufacturing Corporation.
Blakit has had previous experience in the business world as a home builder in Dayton, president of an oil company in Oklahoma, and a bank director and consultant to various corporations on personnel and management problems.
