Rockne: Life after Graduation (1914-1918)
In this episode, we’ll explore Knute Rockne’s journey after his 1914 graduation from the University of Notre Dame, including his development as an assistant coach under Jesse Harper, his brief career in semiprofessional and early professional football, and his marriage to Bonnie Skiles. As college athletics faced uncertainty with America on the brink of World War I, Rockne found himself at a pivotal moment—rising to become Notre Dame’s head coach.
