The “Hail Mary Pass” actually originated in 1922, when two former members of Notre Dame's Four Horsemen, Elmer Layden (Catholic) and Jim Crowley (I don't care) coined the term.įor more than 50 years, the term was largely confined to Notre Dame University (God bless them!) and other US Catholic universities.
