The Notre Dame Fighting Irish is one of the most famous nicknames in all of sports but there were efforts to make the nickname something else in the 1920's.
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish nickname is not just one of the most recognizable in all of college sports but is one of the most iconic of any sports team worldwide. Imagine for a second though that instead of it being "Fighting Irish" that it instead was something incredibly lame.
A few of the unofficial nicknames spoke to Notre Dame's traveling ways. Rockne's Ramblers, Rockne's Rovers, and the Rambling Irish were just a few of those. Enter Francis Wallace, a former Notre Dame student and press agent for Knute Rockne. After graduating in 1923, Wallace began working as a sports writer in New York.
