George Gipp was the school’s legendary football player during 1916-20. He played semiprofessional baseball and smoked, drank, and gambled when not playing sports. He was also humble, generous to the needy, and a man of integrity. It was in 1928 that famed coach [[Knute Rockne]] used his final conversation with the dying Gipp to inspire the Notre Dame team to beat the Army team and "win one for the Gipper." The  1940 film, "Knute Rockne - All American," starred Pat O'Brien as Knute Rockne and [[Ronald Reagan]] as Gipp.

A mural visible from Notre Dame's football stadium that depicts the resurrected [[Jesus Christ]] has been given the nickname "Touchdown Jesus." Some consider this sacrilegious because it minimizes the resurrection and possibly implies that Jesus actively involves himself in matters of football.
