<p>Need a bit of inspiration? What better way than to hear from the man who one of the all-time greatest sports movies was made about? Daniel 'Rudy' Ruettiger joins Nick Shepkowski in this episode of Fighting Irish Wired and gives you a bit of inspiration and motivation before sharing some of his stories from his time at Notre Dame.</p> <p>The conversation starts with Rudy discussing the movie but also the mentality it took to get him to accomplish his dream, a mentality anyone can apply to their lives. Hear 'Rudy' discuss:</p> <ul> <li>Creating a positive mindset and self-love</li> <li>Developing relationships, specifically with everyday people</li> <li>Living with no regrets</li> <li>The unpleasant but very first thing you need to do each and every morning</li> </ul> <p>Then hear Nick ask Rudy about some stories from his time at Notre Dame as well as his thoughts on a few Notre Dame/football related items including:</p> <ul> <li>His legendary high school football coach, Joliet Catholic's Gordie Gillespie</li> <li>What made Tom Brady so great for so long</li> <li>The actual events that led to Rudy dressing (no, it wasn't Joe Montana being hurt)</li> <li>The greatness that was Ross Browner</li> <li>How Ara Parseghian used to take pressure off the team each game-week</li> <li>How Rudy introduced himself to Ara in real-life (better than the movie portrays)</li> <li>Rudy reacts to the comments Joe Montana made about 'Rudy' in recent years</li> <li>Brian Kelly's exit from Notre Dame</li> </ul> <p>And finally, hear Rudy discuss a made-up part of the movie that would have been handled differently in real-life than it was in the movie...had it been true, at least!</p> <p>If you'd like to see Rudy in-person on February 23 at Elmhurst University, be sure to visit the <a href="https://www.elmhurst.edu/event/2023-02-23-niebuhr-center-teach-in-daniel-rudy-ruettiger/" target="_blank">Elmhurst University webpage</a>. </p>

<p>Nick Shepkowski and Jeff Feyerer break down why Notre Dame's offense has more than just a chance to be really special in 2023. The addition of Sam Hartman coupled with an elite offensive line and great backfield should make for a very happy Tommy Rees this fall. Nick and Jeff discuss the highs and lows of Rees as offensive coordinator and why he's got to be one of the most excited assistant coaches in all of college football headed into next year.</p>
