Tuesday meant a full-pads practice for the Frogs as they start to sharpen their preparation for Saturdays 97th Annual Rose Bowl Game. Lots of full-speed hitting was punctuated with several visitors including ESPN's TV crew of Brent Musberger and Kirk Herbstreit (who apparently is a believer in the Frogs!). Also on-board for today's practice was former Miami Head Coach Randy Shannon and Fresno St. Head Coach Pat Hill. The big visitor today was "Rudy"...that's right Rudy Ruettiger, the famous former walk-on at Notre Dame upon whom the movie "RUDY" was based. Rudy addressed the Frogs after practice and told them to make the most of their "moment" in the Rose Bowl. It was a thrill for all the Frogs to meet him and especially for your reporter, who's a big fan of the movie.
More from Pasadena later.
