Happy Birthday to Knute Rockne -- born on this date March 4, 1888...
Coach Rockne would have been 124 years-old today!
Ironically, the man who put Notre Dame Football into the national conversation -- was born just 102 days after the University of Notre Dame played their first ever football game against the University of Michigan on November 23, 1887.
Who could have ever imagined a birth on this date in Voss, Norway -- 124 years ago and 3,857 miles away from the campus of the University of Notre Dame -- would have such an impact on the world of sport.
The University of Notre Dame will celebrate its 125th season of Notre Dame Football this fall.
