Rockne: The Student-Athlete (1910-1914)

In this episode, we’ll dive into Knute Rockne’s college years at Notre Dame, exploring how he balanced his academics in chemistry, his budding athletic career, as well as other on-campus activities. On the football field, his pivotal role in the 1913 Army game and his work on perfecting the forward pass at Cedar Point with teammate Gus Dorais truly shaped his future. Join us as we continue Rockne's legendary journey toward an unmatched coaching legacy.

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.
