Much like the 1971 championship team, this Rambler unit was formed by player of various degrees of experience. Some played varsity football throughout high school, and others have never been apart of an organized football team before. These men found a way to become a cohesive group of fierce competitors, focused on proving they belong in the competitive NCFA (National Club Football Association). Loyola University Chicago is the only NCAA Division I program with the nickname “Ramblers” for its teams. The unusual moniker originated when football was a common and popular sport at Loyola. Before the 1920s, all college athletics teams were merely assigned their school colors, instead of a nickname. All Loyola teams were known as the “Maroon and Gold.”

In 1925, the football coach, along with the student newspaper, conducted a contest to name the football team. The winning entry was “Grandees,” tying into the Spanish origins of St. However, the name “Grandees” failed to catch on. In 1926, a more informal, but much more binding process, finally yielded the nickname: “Ramblers.” That year, because the football team traveled so extensively across the United States, “rambling from state to state,” the media dubbed Loyola as “the Ramblers.”

The 2017 Ramblers’ are looking toward dominating this upcoming season. We are in need of more of the LUC faithful to join this journey, either as a player or as a team manager. One person can make a difference, and if YOU want to be MORE than just some college kid, contact [email protected] for more information. Don’t let football fade away from the Lakefront for another 41 years, make a difference! Several student groups have expressed an interest in competing with other schools. We
believe we have a huge recruitment opportunity for Loyola and for football players among the current players in the Chicago Catholic League, one of the toughest in the country. Coach Frank Lenti of the Mount Carmel Caravan is the winningest coach in
Illinois high school history. He recently stated that MOST of his players don’t get a shot
at Division 1 football and would love an opportunity to play in college. He would know,
by the way, since he played on our 1971 championship team!
