Ever since he was a little boy, Rudy Ruettiger has dreamed of attending the University of Notre
Dame, and playing on the Fighting Irish football team. However, Rudy’s dream doesn’t seem
very practical; Daniel, his father, works in a steel mill and can ill afford to send his son to Notre
Dame. While Rudy’s grades are not especially impressive, and standing at “five-feet-nothing,
a-hundred-and-nothing,” Rudy is hardly built for the gridiron. But he is determined and driven
to overcome the odds and fulfill his dreams.
