There is that famous quote that nobody will forget, "The last thing George said to me, 'Rock,' he said, 'sometime when the team is up against it and the breaks are beating the boys, tell them to go out there with all they've got and win just one for the Gipper.'"

Knute Rockne of course is one of the greatest coaches in the history of the sport posting a record of 105-12-5 with three national championships (1924, 1929, 1930).
