Echoes Awakened DVD
Notre Dame Football

In 1963, America's most fabled college football institution had hit rock bottom.

From 1956 through 1963, Notre Dame had only two winning seasons - finishing 2-7 in 1963. Newspapers were reporting that the Irish would soon be playing an Ivy League-type schedule.

Notre Dame's last chance for a football revival with a new coach who had been cast aside by Northwestern. Ara Parseghian's plan for turning the program around would have to be built on players who had never been part of a winning season.

This was the hard truth of hope. The 1964 season would be a great parable against huge odds - but the new coach had that look in his eye and a plan for winning right away.

Based on New York Times best-selling author Jim Dent's new book Resurrection: The Miracle Season That Saved Notre Dame, Echoes Awakened is a story of courage, redemption, and the revival of the most powerful spirit in college sports.

Narrated by Brent Musberger and introduced with a prologue by Coach Lou Holtz, Echoes Awakened brings Dent's moving narrative to life and vividly captures the most important season in the history of Notre Dame football - and one of the greatest comebacks ever.
