Watch: Four Notre Dame Chargers lack any knowledge of ‘Rudy’

When football wraps up, you’ve got to fill the void somehow.

When football wraps up, you’ve got to fill the void somehow. In the case of the Los Angeles Chargers, you put together a show to help your fans get through the doldrums of the offseason. Would you believe that four Notre Dame alumni play for the Chargers? It only made sense for an episode about Notre Dame featuring Jerry Tillery, Drue Tranquill, Isaac Rochell and Alohi Gilman to come about:

The whole episode is 14 minutes, 40 seconds long, so if you don’t have that kind of time, you can be forgiven. However, you should at least spare 53 seconds to watch them commit the ultimate sin for anyone who’s put on an Irish uniform since 1993. Yes, they show their ignorance when it comes to Rudy, and the Chargers’ Twitter handle appropriately calls out the Irish for not educating them where they should have:

Look, if a modern Notre Dame player hasn’t seen Knute Rockne, All American, it’s bad but somewhat forgivable as that movie has somewhat fallen out of the public consciousness. However, Rudy remains steadfastly a part of pop culture, and it’s absolutely required viewing for anyone who commits to the program. Otherwise, you might as well take your business elsewhere.
