I'm sure many of you have seen this before, but I wanted to share it with you all. Found this on YouTube. The original Notre Dame pep talk. This never gets old. I love how he uses visualization to get it in his teams head about how they will play. His sing-song staccato speech is almost mesmerizing. Simply the best. God Bless Knute Rockne!

Got it a few months ago on ebay for a good price. I use it as my warm-up movie to Rudy the day before the season opener, or as I refer to it "pump up day"! :laugh:

Ha, I do the same thing. The day before the first game, I watch Knute Rockne: All-American, and then I watch Rudy. After that I listen to the fight song and then go to sleep.

Rockne was a brilliant scientist-engineer as an undergraduate at Notre Dame, who was asked by Father Nieuwland (our leading science professor) to become his assistant after graduating. People forget, or don't know, that Rockne had a first class intellect about essentially everything.
