Joseph Clifford Montana Jr., nicknamed "Joe Cool" and "the Comeback Kid," is widely regarded as one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history. Born June 11, 1956, in New Eagle, Pennsylvania, Montana grew up in Monongahela and starred at Ringgold High School in football, basketball, and baseball. At Notre Dame, he became legendary for late-game heroics, including the 1979 Cotton Bowl "Chicken Soup Game" where he overcame hypothermia to lead the Fighting Irish from a 34-12 deficit to a 35-34 victory over Houston.
