Thirty-Two: 'The Pigskin Magician': The Forgotten Lore of Louis 'Red' Salmon

from Onward to Victory: A Notre Dame Football Podcast

Ten years before Rockne, and seventeen years before the sensational 1920 season of a certain George Gipp, Louis 'Red' Salmon was the first Notre Dame football hero. The star was as quiet and reserved as we was breathtakingly good on the gridiron between 1900-1903. He literally (literally) did it all. His legend is obscured today, even among diehard Irish fans. Let's change that today! Please enjoy this enthralling story of an early Notre Dame legend - you surely don't want to miss this one!
