The spring training tryout scene from the film Rudy. This is one of the most inspirational scenes in any film. The song "Tryouts" is composed by Jerry Goldsmith.
Memories of cold fall mornings, you can see your breath, the sun's shining or maybe it's overcast and a white misty haze is over the grass, the wind's blowing and you're knocking heads and working your tail off. Anybody who has every played football knows these days, these practices, the work and comradery, some of the best times a person can have as an athlete.
_Rudy_ is a perfect example of how a film's score can elevate a small, rather personal story to a masterpiece that grabs you by the heart and never lets go. It's a testament to Goldsmith's amazing talent that even fans of rival programs who dislike Notre Dame still love this movie. The _Rudy_ soundtrack is nothing less than the indomitable human spirit set to music.
I concur with your sentiment! Jerry's music enhanced this movie tremendously! The real Rudy committed securities fraud later in life, according to Wikipedia!
I think it depends on a lot of factors…. Personally, I’m of a pretty good size being 6’3 / 220lbs. I’ve trained hard in all the sports I’ve competed in and I’m not by any means a super star athlete but I’m likely more athletic than a guy like Rudy. However, I don’t think I could ever be motivated to take hits like Rudy Day In and Day Out like that. Especially if there’d be almost no chance that I’d make the team or be rewarded for all that pain and embarrassment. I think it’s actually far more possible for a person of average intelligence to be accepted into a University with a low admission rate. Studying hard, acquiring a good tutor, applying multiple times and making connections with the right people goes very, very far. But to each their own. It all depends on how motivated you are to get what you want.
It's a solid discussion. ND's current acceptance rate is 15% (top-tier schools hovered around 20% in the '70s). Rudy allegedly did not have the grades for Joliet Community College, so Father Cavanaugh's influence ultimately allowed him admission to HC. Fortunately, he was able to identify a learning disability, which - who knows what treatments existed - provided at least a reason for his academic troubles and hopefully a focused plan. However, he's a "dreamer" in tryouts. One of the two selected - out of the 15 - who will "run the opposition's plays." He had approximately a 13.3% chance to earn a spot.
@@dchang11 I loved how the administration at Notre Dame reacted to the _über-elite_ students that took over the university during the Vietnam War. They claimed they wanted to 'negotiate' the return of the school as long as all charges were dropped and their stance on the war was recognized. Notre Dame said "nope, you don't run this school... we do". And those students were all expelled. Their daddy's wealthy didn't matter at all. I hate that war and our reasons for being there... pretty much everything about it. But that gives no one the right to take and/or destroy other people's property.
@@DrakeBrunette You simply lack the championship mindset to achieve anything great, while guys like Spud Webb, Mugsy Bogues, Wes Welker, Steve Largent, Manny Pacquiao, etc., all have what it takes to overcome great odds. It's ok, nothing is wrong with that. More than 99.99% of the human population, including myself, don't have that championship mindset. That's why only such a small number of people truly attain greatness. Greatness is reserved for the very few who are willing to DIE to accomplish something.
I'd never even heard of this until I saw this movie. I don't love or hate Notre Dame, but you have to respect the fucking hell out of the tradition. ruclips.net/video/VafBdSU6A90/видео.html
@@danielcallahan4825 The score for Hoosiers is more impressive than the actual movie if you use common sense while watching it. Waaaay underrated sports movie score imo that doesn't have enough vids anywhere: Unnecessary Roughness.
I plan to watch this movie with each of my kids when they are old enough, early teens most likely, to teach them what perseverance is and to never stop working towards whatever it is they want to achieve in life. This is in my top 50 movies of all time.
I just realized why I enjoy the coach's speech. Besides being lean and not wasting a word, the cadence of his speech fits the background music. He talks and pauses at just the right pace.
This movie helped save me during a time of deep depression, when the world seemed stacked against me and everything in me wanted to give up, but I had just enough fight left to keep pushing forward. This movie, and this particular scene, helped me find and keep my courage. I can say that looking back now from a place of personal success and fulfillment.
@@ss_whole Oh really, is that true?! What's the name of the movie are you talking about again? 🙄 (...and his name was actually Daniel, if you wanna be Mr. Serious King Of Corrections. Rudy was his nickname based on his last name of Ruettiger. How is it you see yourself as the person to correct everyone around you when youve never even read any Tolkien for Christ's sake?)
Don't let this distract you from the fact that in 1966, Al Bundy scored four touchdowns in a single game while playing for the Polk High School Panthers in the 1966 city championship game versus Andrew Johnson High School, including the game-winning touchdown in the final seconds against his old nemesis, "Spare Tire" Dixon.
what i found interesting watching this again, is that when the coach on the left mentioned rudy as a player to keep on and the other coach didn't want any of them, he knew rudy's name when he was mentioned. even though he didn't want him, rudy made an impression on him.
@@SuperChuckRaney That's pretty much the opposite sentiment of what the others were saying. The Japanese saying is for comformity while the others are for individuality. Funny how that works, eh?
I agree. The coaches speech at beginning to the walk-Ons is very blunt and factual. I don’t think people realize the disparity between top tier scholarship athletes and everyone else. In 1988 my cousin was a blue chip HS Volleyball player, All CIF. In 1990 she was a NCAA D1 National Champion in volleyball. 1991, she tried out for the 1992 USA Olympic team. Didn’t even come close. She said she was slower and shorter than all the women who tried out. Humbling
@@kevinbond8966 In an instant, right? I remember stretching first thing, before we did any activity at all, and no stretching from there on out. And freaking gatorade! And oranges. Occasionally water. Heh.
Still one of my favorite scenes when he says “Come on coach I can do it” and the music gets loud and intense and camera zooms in on his eyes. Get chills watching that every time. You can’t coach that intensity and heart! Great scene and movie!!
I can tell you that players like Rudy, that are undersized, unathletic, but work harder than everybody else. *They* set the example for the rest of the team, including the first string players. Having a guy on your team like Rudy is truly like having 12 men on the field.
@@donarthiazi2443 Well if you remember there may have been a kid on the team that was not a good athlete but worked his tail off. Anytime he did a drill, he at the very least gave his best effort. This type of attitude is contagious, and usually gets praise from coaches and players alike.. it makes the other players work harder in practice than they otherwise would have. Therefore they will perform better on gameday. Thats all i was saying
Fun fact: Jason Miller, who played Ara Parsegian, was such a huge Irish fan (he used to end his conversations with "Go Irish," instead of "goodbye" lol), that he said yes to this role before even seeing the script. Such a shame he died so young. Loved him in The Exorcist too. RIP Jason Miller.
As my pop pop was dying last year I gave him one last hug and he whispered to me “be good for pop pop, be good” so I promised him that I would dress and run out of that tunnel one day. It’s written in my wall to this day and I’m 3 years closer to my dream wish me luck
Good luck, but don’t hang your self worth on that goal. The odds are heavily stacked against you. Unless youre winning state football player of the year, there’s a good chance you wont make it. There are plenty of 3* All-State players that dont get offered from schools like ND.
+Dennis Coffman I’ve met Rudy since his brother was the dean of my high school and my wrestling coach. Honestly he kind of thinks he’s a god or something and it was kind of annoying. Still a real good movie though
Tyler Gordon Disappointed to hear that but it doesn’t really surprise me. Sean Astin, who played Rudy, once said on a talk show that he had heard the Real Rudy was really milking his celebrity for all it was worth. Especially after this film came out.
While hearing these stories about the real Rudy all I can say is it doesent change my view of the story no one is perfect and if you were In his shoes you can’t even say how you would act because you’re not there to begin with so you have no idea therefore knowing that I don’t judge
Let me the first to say I didn’t graduate from university of notre dame but I graduated from Purdue University on May 16 2022 and when I saw Rudy I felt like I was like Rudy and I accomplished something. For the record I graduated from Purdue University with a masters degree 📜. Thanks Rudy you inspired me.
A historic masterpiece in filmmaking and in the intrinsic value of of the conscious mind. Every play is in the present. The effort of Rudy on the field has implications of every man who has the drive to accomplish through physical limitations that which comparatively few can accomplish even among those of which are the most physically imposing individuals. This film and story proves that %100 is not something many men can actually give. The film takes the authentic look of the time and translates it into the heart of the present. Many tears will follow this piece when you are in this same frame of mind as you see what you could have accomplished.
At 2:47 you can see the players running the 2:1 version of the Oklahoma drill. Perfected by Bud Wilkinson in 1952, it quickly became a mainstay of both college and pro football practices. Wilkinson ran his guys thru this drill so many times that the players reported that they couldnt even feel the collisions in the real games. Bud took OU on a 47 game win streak from 1953 to 1957, a streak which is considered by most football experts to be unbeatable, especially after the development of the college playoff.
Fun fact: Jerry Goldsmith asked his manager “when are you going to give me another movie like Hoosiers? He kept his eye open and then offered him Rudy. You know the rest of the story.
Hate to say it but I feel Rudy really hard. I was the smallest kid on any team I was in until junior year and never cut, senior year won most improved and lead my team in tackles. If your undersized, don’t stop trying, don’t quit just because your smaller or if your parents or role models say you will probably be cut. Don’t give up 🔥
As a fellow collegiate varsity walk-on (granted, for skiing), you walk a tremendous uphill battle, but videos like this always gave me hope. The day I was presented with my jacket, my starting position, and eventual scholarship made all the difference in the world. This might not be the completely accurate story, but things like this still inspire, and that's very important to people who need that extra boost of motivation.
@@sidneyrodrigues728 I agree. I wasn’t good at all when I played. But more than half my teammates said I had the biggest heart on the team. To this day, that means a lot to me
Fun fact: The skinny QB (O’hare) that the coach yells at later on in practice was played by none other than a young & still unknown... Vince(nt) Vaughn.
Vincent VAughn is a half-back ...... old school half backs threw passes also, Frank Gifford the broadcaster holds the records for most touchdowns by a non quarterback. In the scene where Vince (O'Hare) gets sacked, Vince takes a pitch-out from the under-center QB and is then hit by Ruttiger. ruclips.net/video/G8c6j-LS-ZI/видео.html
Wow, was it really? no one knew that only u . In fact it wasnt in the credits either . Thanks so much. What about Rudy's fat friend D Bop, Was he a somebody also ?
The soundtrack for this movie was the best Jerry goldsmith was so great when it comes to music I loved Rudy still one of my favorite movies. Great movie great story having dreams is what makes life tolerable
Anyone that’s played ball gets this….Pop Warner , middle school, Jr High, high school, college etc…..you have to want to be there….training in the summer heat, with shells, then full equipment…going half speed then full throttle…..dings, cuts, blood, injuries are all part of it…..but once made the camaraderie is forever…..never give up…..
It was a lot of coaches on the ND staff observing practice over those five days and only one coach noticed the heart of Rudy while the rest of the coaches were focused on Rudy athletic ability and physical stature and didn't want him. That one coach changed Rudy's life by selecting him when no other coach wanted him ! This reminds me of Tom Brady and what he went through !
Rudy will always be my inspiration to never give up even when it seems low never give up and never let up. Bust your ass every day and the results will come.
I just watched 'Greater' which is essentially the same story and couldn't remember a thing about it. The music and cinematography in 'Rudy' alone is enough reason to like this movie.
What a great and accurate depiction of coaches, especially the way Parseghian defers to his subordinates. I also like the part where he’s so pissed he kicks grass.
Fun Fact: Former WWF superstars Al Snow and Dan 'The Beast' Severn are in these tryouts and at the end of the movie. Al Snow is number 76 thought out. Severn idk what number.
Never thought of myself as smaller growing up. But it sure explains my lousy record in schoolyard fights. I love Rudy. I have no ability as an athlete ever, but I got an NCAA scholarship in cross country and Nordic skiing. You know, sports for smaller guys.:)
We can all make it even in the face of impossible odds. You just have to have hope and faith. It will come. Just as I want to play for the MLS but this won’t be easy. I have to go through hard work, persistence and determination to get there. It will not be easy. Not even the slightest bit. But I will make it happen and I will somehow succeed and play at the stadium with hundreds of thousands of fans watching us. Watching me. But the day will soon come. Wish me the best of luck and don’t forget that hard work will pay one day. The efforts count and they will weigh upon success. Soon I will become. Proffesional and play soccer but the day will come pray for me and wish me all luck as I’m 15 and I want to become one of all. Thank you for reading this. Amen
Baker Mayfield was a walk-on at Texas Tech and in 2017 was the the first walk-on true freshman quarterback to start a FBS season opener at the quarterback position. He won Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year. He then transferred to Oklahoma and was a walk-on there. He won the Heisman in 2017, becoming the first walk-on to ever win the award.
The most underrated part is the coach basically goading all of the scout team hopefuls into staying with the "Any of you wanna run home to mama?" line 🤣🤣

Well same, but for soccer. Yes, it’s a different sport entirely, don’t judge me lol
how bout the smell of the cut grass
@chad maybe you were being too much of a chad.
Rudy has one of the best musical scores in cinematic history.
I thought is was Wagner or Beethoven, I was shocked.
Lord of the Rings too
And the fact that it was not even nominated for an academy award is nothing short of criminal.
@@Avendale Really? My God I thought it was some old Beethoven or Wagner tune. Wow, I wonder what beat it out the soundtrack of Howard the Duck?

Love jason Miller in this. Excorsizing any mediocre or placid spirit from the players. See what I did there?

The sun, the mist, the helmets, the speech, and that score by jerry goldsmith are all GOLD

Jerry Goldsmith asked his manager “when are you going to give me another movie like Hoosiers? He kept his eye open and then offered him Rudy. You know the rest of the story.
This score is magic
This is one of the greatest scenes in cinematic history
Hate to say it but I feel Rudy really hard. I was the smallest kid on any team I was in until junior year and never cut, senior year won most improved and lead my team in tackles. If your undersized, don’t stop trying, don’t quit just because your smaller or if your parents or role models say you will probably be cut. Don’t give up 🔥
Little known fact, Rudy did this, all of this, without even having had second breakfast.
Well played
Actually I met him he was real down-to-earth
What this movie has taught me is that . You can do anything if you put your mind heart and soul into it. Dreams do come true the sky is the limit .
Love this scene 😢
As a fellow collegiate varsity walk-on (granted, for skiing), you walk a tremendous uphill battle, but videos like this always gave me hope. The day I was presented with my jacket, my starting position, and eventual scholarship made all the difference in the world.
This might not be the completely accurate story, but things like this still inspire, and that's very important to people who need that extra boost of motivation.
Skiing uphill WOULD be an Uphill battle. *Rimshot*. Thank you, thank you, and don't forget to tip your waiteress!
"For skiiing"! Lol!
This music…you can set footage of people stuffing envelopes to it and still have an epic scene.
Best football movie ever
My favorite sports movie ever.. I still tear up at ending evey time.. 53 years old.. Simply the best
It ain’t always about how well you can play. It’s about your heart and determination to show you belong on the team
Sheer will and determination are huge factors to be considered in any life situation.
@@sidneyrodrigues728 I agree. I wasn’t good at all when I played. But more than half my teammates said I had the biggest heart on the team. To this day, that means a lot to me
Fun fact: The skinny QB (O’hare) that the coach yells at later on in practice was played by none other than a young & still unknown... Vince(nt) Vaughn.
Vincent VAughn is a half-back ...... old school half backs threw passes also, Frank Gifford the broadcaster holds the records for most touchdowns by a non quarterback.
In the scene where Vince (O'Hare) gets sacked, Vince takes a pitch-out from the under-center QB and is then hit by Ruttiger.

Wow, was it really? no one knew that only u . In fact it wasnt in the credits either . Thanks so much. What about Rudy's fat friend D Bop, Was he a somebody also ?
@@daveyboy_ Jon Favreau.
@@ericdaniel323 Really , Wow i never knew. U mean they were both in s movie be4 swingers? awesome
Watch “Made” excellent film. Don’t for get swingers
The most inspiring music of all time if you think you can’t do something listen to this because you can
Thai music will be in my head when I tryout for the proffesional league so I can remember Rudy and him never giving up
One of the greatest sports films of all time
Great Film.
Yesireee
RIP John Beasley, I always thought this was a really good speech
Yeah it was a great speech. He was a great actor. Sad to see him go.
Thanks for your kind words ♥ 🎥
Every team needs that small guy who works hard.
Rudy is the G.O.A.T.!!!!!!!!!!!
Me and my grandpa must have watched this a hundred times
The soundtrack for this movie was the best Jerry goldsmith was so great when it comes to music I loved Rudy still one of my favorite movies. Great movie great story having dreams is what makes life tolerable
Katie Williams a true modern masterpiece
Man that score is one of the best ever made
This is such a good movie
Greatest Football Movie EVER
👎 you forget any given Sunday
Remember the Titans
Best movie and inspiration for all underdogs.
This movie was the reason I played football, very special place in my heart
Magical music!!
This is where we separate the boys from the girls.
Love that coach
It was actually " the men from the girls", but close.
Nowadays studios would never let a harmless line like that be said on film ...ridiculous
@@MixerMadness well, a lot.of girls can eat boys
Not in my defensive backfield. You want him you got him
Lol can't forget "coach if it was up to me I'd get rid of all of em" lmfao 😂😂😂
Rudy got lot of heart.
This movie could have stopped here, and the sheer triumph would have still made it an absolute win.
but it didn't because its an absolute masterpiece and one of the best sports bipics ever made (if not THE best)
Anyone that’s played ball gets this….Pop Warner , middle school, Jr High, high school, college etc…..you have to want to be there….training in the summer heat, with shells, then full equipment…going half speed then full throttle…..dings, cuts, blood, injuries are all part of it…..but once made the camaraderie is forever…..never give up…..
When you put your heart to anything you desire. Your dreams Will come true.
I cried in this movie
Such a motivating song and scene...ever need some motivation watch this
That 720 really makes this scene worth it...
Rudy:“Come on coach I can do it”
Me: *wipes tears from my eyes
It was a lot of coaches on the ND staff observing practice over those five days and only one coach noticed the heart of Rudy while the rest of the coaches were focused on Rudy athletic ability and physical stature and didn't want him. That one coach changed Rudy's life by selecting him when no other coach wanted him ! This reminds me of Tom Brady and what he went through !
Rudy will always be my inspiration to never give up even when it seems low never give up and never let up. Bust your ass every day and the results will come.
I just watched 'Greater' which is essentially the same story and couldn't remember a thing about it. The music and cinematography in 'Rudy' alone is enough reason to like this movie.
God I miss those days, spring practice and then fall Friday night and Saturday. Best feeling ever
RIP John Beasley.
Outstanding MOVIE--!!
What a great and accurate depiction of coaches, especially the way Parseghian defers to his subordinates. I also like the part where he’s so pissed he kicks grass.
The greatest football speech in ANY 🏈movie is from this Defensive Backs Coach explaining what it takes to make the team.
😆IT’S FUCKING AWESOME!!!!
"Of you 15 dreamers out there"
Words that resonate to this day
It's timeless
Fun Fact: Former WWF superstars Al Snow and Dan 'The Beast' Severn are in these tryouts and at the end of the movie. Al Snow is number 76 thought out. Severn idk what number.
Great movie great acting great soundtrack and can't wait for this 4K to come out
This tryout was nothing for Rudy from what he already had been through. It truly is the journey that molds
Never thought of myself as smaller growing up. But it sure explains my lousy record in schoolyard fights. I love Rudy. I have no ability as an athlete ever, but I got an NCAA scholarship in cross country and Nordic skiing. You know, sports for smaller guys.:)
I cried like a little bitch when he said no coach I can do it then made the tackle. Scene is inspirational af
I love that scene too
We can all make it even in the face of impossible odds. You just have to have hope and faith. It will come. Just as I want to play for the MLS but this won’t be easy. I have to go through hard work, persistence and determination to get there. It will not be easy. Not even the slightest bit. But I will make it happen and I will somehow succeed and play at the stadium with hundreds of thousands of fans watching us. Watching me. But the day will soon come. Wish me the best of luck and don’t forget that hard work will pay one day. The efforts count and they will weigh upon success. Soon I will become. Proffesional and play soccer but the day will come pray for me and wish me all luck as I’m 15 and I want to become one of all. Thank you for reading this. Amen
One of the greatest scenes of all time
this movie helped me achieve way more in my life than was imaginable! Ive been hitting above my weight since 1993!
These recomended vids are crazy
We need more coaches like this. Nowadays walk-ons won’t ever be looked at
Baker Mayfield was a walk-on at Texas Tech and in 2017 was the the first walk-on true freshman quarterback to start a FBS season opener at the quarterback position. He won Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year. He then transferred to Oklahoma and was a walk-on there. He won the Heisman in 2017, becoming the first walk-on to ever win the award.
Stetson Bennett was a walk on and later won two national championships as the starting quarterback
JJ Watt was a walk on and led a hall of fame career
I just love this soundtrack and scene 💪
The most underrated part is the coach basically goading all of the scout team hopefuls into staying with the "Any of you wanna run home to mama?" line 🤣🤣
