The story

Incoming student Edward “Bucky” O'Brien, a star football player from Hockerville High in North Dakota, arrives on the Notre Dame campus and is introduced to his new roommate, Jim Stewart, a member of the Fighting Irish track team. Bucky's first practice with the football team is awkward, as he is not used to blocking for other backs, and his runs are, for the most part, effectively countered by the defense. However, his grit and determination inspire Jim, who observes the practice from the sidelines, inducing him to try out for the football team.
