Ara Parseghian was a former football player and college head coach. He is best noted for being the head coach of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish from 1964 through 1974. Ara led the Fighting Irish back to national prominence after years of mediocre play. In 1964, in his first season he almost led the Irish to a National Title when going into their last game they were undefeated, untied and ranked No. 1 in the country. Unfortunately, Ara and the Irish lost the game to USC on a late touchdown. Ara did win his first National Title in 1966 and then won another in 1973. During his career at Notre Dame, Ara's teams went 95-17-4 and finished ranked within the Top Ten teams 9 times in 11 years. Prior to taking over at South Bend, Ara had been a successful coach at both Miami (Ohio) and Northwestern. Before that he had played several years as a running back in the pro ball and he had won two AAFC titles with the Cleveland Browns. After leading Notre Dame, Ara was well known as a college football broadcast commentator for ABC and then CBS. He was inducted into the College Hall of Fame in 1980. Ara passed away in 2017 at the age of 94. Ara was a very special coach and one of the best of the 1960's and 1970's. His hat would be a special gift for any Notre Dame or college football fan.
