About this listen

Rockne: The Head Coach, Part Four (1928-1929)

In this episode, we explore Knute Rockne’s and the University of Notre Dame football program’s 1928 and 1929 seasons. These years brought turbulence and transition; Rockne also endured the worst season of his Notre Dame tenure and, for the first time, he even faced a number of vocal critics within the Notre Dame fanbase and press. At the same time, his obligations beyond the football field increased - his business ventures expanding and demanding more of his time and attention.

Hosted by Alex Painter, a Notre Dame fan and historian. You can listen to Alex’s Notre Dame football podcast, “Onward to Victory,” on any podcasting service.

This podcast is presented by The History Museum of South Bend, Indiana, and is possible through the generous sponsorship of Andy and Tina Nickle.
