Notre Dame Football Announces Improvements To Its Storied History Notre Dame's history, perhaps the most storied in sports, already includes such legends as Knute Rockne, George Gipp, and Joe Theismann. However, once the program's history has been revised, it will ... include Hall of Famers such as Bo Jackson, formerly of Auburn; Archie Griffin, formerly of Ohio State; and Red Grange, formerly of Illinois.

This is a natural corporate tie-in for NBC, the home of Notre Dame football and Late Night. Just think of the possibilities, like a See & Speak featuring the voices of Lou Holtz, Ara Parseghian, Knute Rockne, Ronald Reagan (as George Gipp) and Sean Astin (as Rudy).
Rockne died in the plane crash of TWA Flight 599 in Kansas on March 31, 1931, while on his way to help in the production of the film The Spirit of Notre Dame. The crash site, located in a remote expanse of Kansas known as the Flint Hills, now features a Rockne Memorial.
