Dame Rumor Whispering That
Rockne Will Coach Columbia
Team in 1924 Football Season
Appearance of Mohardt at
I nivcrpily Revives Rumor
That Notre Dame Mentor
)Xi!l Accept Offer.
New York, I-'eb, 23.—Johnny Mu
hart, Notre Du me football star two
.seasons ago, and a teammate of the
great George Gipp, spent several
hours conferring with the athletic au
thorities at.Columbia university, and
while the details of the discussion are
problematical, his appearance on the
campus at least revived -the rumor
that Knute. Rockne, Notre Dame
coaching wizard, would be at the helm
of Columbia football In 192 4.
It will be remembered that Colum
bia offered Rockne a stun approxi
mately Jlti.OOU to coach the Blue and
White football eleven this fall, but
that Rockne’s contract tied him up at
Notro Dame for the entire season.
Confers With Rockne.
Subsequent to Roeknc's declination.
Graduate Manager Boh Watt of Col
umbia went to South Bend, Ind., for
another confab with him, and it is
now whispered about that Rockne
consented to take the Columbia job
in 1924.
This is wli' i' Mohardt entered the !
picture. Johnny may h&vu been deb ■ '
gated by Hockne to take charge of
the Nov York footballers this season
while he is serving out his contract
vuih the Indiana players. Mohardt Is
thoroughly conversant with the
Hockne systems and. although he is
several long spirals removed in ability
from Knute. he nevertheless could in
stall the Hockne system at Columbia
very capably this fall.
Glenn Warner, Pitt coach, w ho goes
to Stanford, on the coast, in 1924,
sent Andy Kerr, his Pitt assistant, out
to the western srhonl last season to
instruct the Stanford team in the rudi
ments of tie Warner system and Kerr
will again hold down the proxy posi
tion this fall. Mohardt may ho used
in the same rapacity.
May Cio to Noire liatne.
In the event Mohardt fills for
Hockne this fall, it is not presump
tuous to assume that Mohardt would
succeed Hockne at Notre Darne.
Hockne graduated directly from the
quarterback berth on the 1913 Notre
Dame eleven to the role of varsity
coach and there are many Notre Dame
undergraduates and alumni who fed
positive Mohardt would develop into
a first class mentor if afforded the
opportunity.
