It gives a good 12 min. summary of Rockne's life and influence.
Includes:
Rockne's 1925 flirtation with Columbia University regarding the HC job. The papers had a headline "Rockne Quits Notre Dame", but Rockne denied it and it never developed.
This blows up the false narrative in the iconic film, "Knute Rockne All-American" when Rock told ND's president, who told him that he would understand it if he wanted to take a HC job that paid more, "I'll never leave Notre Dame, Father, I'll never leave Notre Dame."
Didn't we all get goosebumps when we saw that! Rock loved ND more than money, he was truly loyal. He was our guy.
The "Win one for the Gipper" game against Army in 1928 at Yankee Stadium was mentioned. The seldom used ND player who scored the winning TD became famous for that play and was forevermore known as Johnny "One Play" O'Brien.
Crowds were shown lining the streets of South Bend to welcome the team home from big wins.
Will Notre Dame ever re-capture that magic?
Why not? We've got a really good team coming back this year. Let's do it again!
