As a Chicago native and south-sider, Frank Pinn really had no choice but to go to the University of Notre Dame. His dad (Frank Pinn Sr.) not only went there, but also played football at Notre Dame. Frank, growing up in a town filled with Notre Dame fans, and in a family that religiously watched the Irish on Saturdays, decided to follow in his father’s footsteps to chart his own unique path at Notre Dame. In speaking with me and looking back a bit, Frank feels truly fortunate to not only have been able to attend the University of Notre Dame, but to have played on the football team, as well.
