What does 'Win one for the Gipper' mean?
"Some time, Rock, when the team is up against it, when things are wrong and the breaks are beating the boys - tell them to go in there with all they've got and win just one for the Gipper." - George Gipp (All American Football Player, University of Notre Dame) *** It is reported that George Gipp made the above statement while on his death bed to his coach, Knute Rockne. Eight years later, Rockne used Gipp's statement in his famous half-time speech when Notre Dame was losing to Army. Notre Dame came from behind to beat Army 12-6. When Notre Dame half back, Jack Chevigny, scored Notre Dame's winning touchdown he shouted, "That one was for the Gipper." The phrase, "win one for the Gipper," is well known in the sports world. It exemplifies the true meaning of playing for a purpose, or put another way, a reason for being. We all should adopt the phrase "win one for the Gipper" in our personal lives. The key is to figure out the true "Gippers" in our lives. We need to take some time to focus on what is really important (the "Gippers") in our lives and make a commitment to live our lives accordingly. When we live our lives with purpose and we happen to be "up against it, when things are wrong and the breaks are beating us," we too shall conquer and be able to say "that was for the Gipper!" Happy Birthday George Gipp! (1895 -1920)

What presidents nickname was The Gipper?
Actually, no president had this nickname. But you may be referring to a famous line in a 1940 movie, when then-actor Ronald Reagan spoke about winning one for the Gipper-- a college football player at Notre Dame named George Gipp, who died when he was only in his mid-20s. Unfortunately, the movie memorializes a story that may or may not have really happened. Yes, there was a George Gipp, but whether he actually asked his teammates in a death-bed scene to win the game for him is the subject of much debate. I refer you to an excellent article about this, from Sports Illustrated. https://www.si.com/vault/1991/12/30/125750/the-elusive-gipper-who-was-george-gipp-of-notre-dame-and-why-does-his-legend-live-on-when-so-many-others-have-faded
