George The Gipper Gipp February 18, 1895 December 14, 1920 was a college football player who played for the University of Notre Dame. Gipp was selected as Notre Dame''s first All-American and is Notre Dame''s second consensus All-American of 79, after Gus Dorais. Gipp played multiple positions, most notably halfback, quarterback, and punter. He is still considered today to be one of the most versatile athletes to play the game of football and is the subject of Knute Rockne''s famous "Win one for the Gipper" speech. Gipp died at the age of 25 of streptococcal throat infection, days after leading Notre Dame to a win over Northwestern in his senior season. Born in Laurium, Michigan, he entered Notre Dame intending to play baseball for the Fighting Irish, but was recruited by Knute Rockne for the football team, despite having no experience in organized football.
