Every Play Every Day: My Life as a Notre Dame Walk-on

by Timmy O'Neill

Every Play Every Day takes you on the intimate journey of former Notre Dame tailback Timmy O'Neill, who, at 5' 6", and 165 lbs, wasn't the prototypical Division I college football player. Experience the journey from the dorm room to the classroom, from the locker room to the training room, and everywhere in between. Read about the incredible experience of being a college football walk-on the joy, the pain, and the raw emotion characterizing the inner fight athletes deal with on a daily basis. This book details the lessons learned through O'Neill s five years as a Notre Dame walk-on, and shows the journey from walk-on to scholarship player and what it took to become the shortest player in Notre Dame football history to carry the ball in a game. In the end, it shows what can happen to anyone who refuses to accept the limitations imposed by others.

If you know me, you know I love football so I enjoyed this book. And I also believe that if you work hard and think positively, good things will happen to you. That was my experience in volleyball. And that was Tim’s experience at Notre Dame . I thought this book was very inspirational, well written and thought provoking. It makes you want to go out and pursue the craziest of dreams because if you believe in it and work hard, it may just come true. Well done Tim!!
