Notre Dame football photo from 1897 found

Nice look into the football program’s early history.

With many people back celebrating Christmas with their families this year, the possibilities to pass time were endless.

One common activity is to dig into family history and discover something you hadn’t seen or known before. Maybe you rediscover something you hadn’t seen in a long time or are reminded of something you had forgotten about. Check out what happened with Kevin Clark, a senior writer and podcaster for The Ringer:

1897 was the second of Frank Hering’s three years as Notre Dame coach and the first of three years in which Jack Mullen served as captain. Notre Dame went 4-1-1 that season, beginning with a scoreless tie against Rush Medical and a 4-0 win over DePauw. A 62-0 win over the Chicago Dental Infirmary was followed by a 34-5 road loss to Chicago. The season wrapped up with a 60-0 victory over the now-defunct St. Viator and a 34-6 win in the rain against the program now known as Michigan State.

Celtics President Brad Stevens gave a speech on leadership while a player at DePauw

Watching the clip, you can see how the former coach would rise through the ranks of the sport he loves.

“No matter what your age is — you can always find a way to take a leadership role,” said Brad Stevens in a clip shared recently by CoachTube’s Twitter account. “Whether it’s just displaying a positive attitude or just rooting for somebody else.”

Sage words that would surprise few to know came from the mouth of the man currently at the helm of the Boston Celtics as their president of basketball operations. But it might surprise some to learn the words were part of a speech given by Stevens while he was a senior still playing for DePauw University, his alma mater.

Evidently, the former Butler and Celtics head coach really leaned into that leadership business, as NBA commissioner is about all that is left for the former DePauw player to ascend to in his current line of work.

We don’t expect him to consider such a move any time soon, but in the meantime, check out the speech captured in the clip above.
