Arnold Friberg was a stickler for details. Before creating his art piece The Coach: Knute Rockney in the Locker Room at Notre Dame, Friberg asked such questions as: What did the uniforms look life? What players had which numbers on the backs of their uniforms? Where did Knute Rockney stand when addressing his team? All of this took effort and research on Friberg’s part. A number of then-current Notre Dame All-American stars assisted the artist by posing as the players in the picture.
