EDINBORO UNIVERSITY

After 125 years of service to the tri-state area, Edinboro experienced its most significant change in history on
July 1, 1983, when the College became Edinboro Univer­
sity of Pennsylvania. Founded as a private academy in
1857, Edinboro University has continued its surge to the
forefront as one of the leading educational institutions in
western Pennsylvania. Situated on a sprawling 585-acre
campus in the scenic resort community of Edinboro, the
University is within 1CX) miles of the educational and
cultural centers of Buffalo, Cleveland, and Pittsburgh. It is
just 15 miles south of Erie, the third largest city in
Pennsylvania, and easily accessible from all directions by
interstates 79, 80 and 90.
Edinboro has the distinction of being the second
normal school established in Pennsylvania and the 12th in
the United States. It has grown to more than forty buildings
including the 350,000-volume Baron-Forness Library, a
modern seven-story structure which serves as a focal point
for the spacious campus. More than 5,800 students
representing almost every county in the Commonwealth,
as well as numerous states and foreign countries attend
Edinboro. Its tradition of educational service and research
is matched by a distinguished faculty, more than two-thirds
of whom have earned doctoral degrees.
The University now offers more than 100 under­
graduate, graduate, and associate degree programs, a
diversity unmatched by any other college or university in
northwestern Pennsylvania. While seeking to meet the

educational needs of its region from both a professional
and cultural standpoint, Edinboro now mckes contributions
in the fields of education, government, environmental
improvement, urban and rural problems, crime prevention,
and service to business and industry. Recent program
developments include those in the high-demand areas of
allied health, business administration, communication,
computer technology, nursing, and various pre-profes­
sional offerings such as law, dentistry, medicine, pharmacy
and veterinary science. Numerous student internships
provide additional examples of the University's efforts to
create a close working relationship with the people it
serves while, at the same time, offering students intel­
lectual and career opportunities.
Edinboro has initiated the University Honors Program
to provide challenging and enriched learning experiences
for academically gifted students. Undergraduate students
are encouraged to strive for academic excellence both in
their major fields and in other disciplines. Honors students
pursue studies that are greater in depth and scope than
those required of other undergraduates.
Although the costs for attending Edinboro rank among
the lowest in the Commonwealth, over $8,000,000 in
financial aid is available annually to eligible students.
Students are admitted to the University in September,
January, or at the beginning of each summer session and
are considered for admission on the basis of their general
scholarship, nature of secondary program, and SAT or ACT
scores.

Edinboro University finds itself in the pressure cooker
again today vvhen the once-beaten Fighting Scots host a
frustrated Indiana (PA) football team that's due to explode
and hopes to play the spoilers role during the Boro's annual
Homecoming festivities. The invading Big Indians, who
bring one of the country's biggest Division II lineups into
Sox Harrison Stadium, could shatter the Scots hopes of
staying in the Pennsylvania Conference's Western Division
race. Edinboro is currently in second place at 2-1 and
chasing unbeaten Clarion.
Preseason favorites to win the Western title, the Big
Indians throttled California 35-21, before being upset 1514 by Slippery Rock and now show an even 1-1 divisional
record. Second-year coach, George Chaump, an offensive
coordinator during championship years at both Ohio State
and Tampa Bay, has also seen his talented club fall to
powerful Hillsdale and third-ranked (NAIA) Westminster.
From tackle to tackle lUP's offensive line approaches
pro proportions with an average of 258 pounds. The
Indiana backfield follows tackle Ben Lawrence (267), guard
John Palamara (265), center Mark Plevelich (240), guard
Chuck Duffy (235) and tackle Bruce Morgan (285).
Indiana's size continues on the defensive unit with its
3-4 alignment led by down linemen Bret Shugarts (267),
Bill Scott (260) and Mike Karmazyn (244). In spite of a 2-3
record this trio has spearheaded a defense that is yielding
only 115 yards rushing per game and 158 yards passing.
While Edinboro's defense has held opposing teams
running games intact by allowing only 77 yards per clash
on the ground, the Scots can expect a stern challenge
through the air by quarterback Rick Ingold. The South
Carolina transfer has already thrown for 1,139 yards and
has connected for eight touchdowns.
Ingold keeps enemy defenses off balance with a wide
variety of talented receivers. Six Indiana gridders have
caught 10 or more passes with wideout Gregg Brenner on
top of the pack with his 17 receptions for 281 yards.
lUP's running attack features fullback Bill Thompson
and Dave Seidel who shares his talents at both the fullback
and tailback slots. Seidel owns 349 yards for a respectable
69.8 yards per game average with Thompson churning up
the turf at a 51.2 rate.
If recent games serve as any indicator look for a low
scoring tightly contested game. In five of the last seven
encounters between these two teams neither has scored
more than one touchdown. The widest margin of difference
in the final score after matchups in the past seven years
has been a mere six points. Edinboro edged the Braves at
Indiana, 6-3, last fall with lUP slipping past the Scots 7-6 at
Sox Harrison two year's ago.
Edinboro s offense finally got back on track in last
week's 28-20 win over Slippery Rock. The Scots ground
game is grinding out an impressive 269 yards per game
while the aerial attack shows a 181.6 yards per contest
output. The combined efforts showcase a 450.8 average
which ranks among the top ten in the country along with a
36.0 points per game scoring average.
The Scots defense has been equal to the test with its
stinginess against the run'and with a secondary that has
intercepted 13 passes, six of which set a single game
record.
Junior quarterback Blair Hrovat directs the Scots'
diversified vying-T attack. Hrovat has run for 205 yards on
the year while passing for 864 yards and five scores. Split
end Gary McKnight (8-154) is his top target among the
Plaid's receivers but his favorite hookup, versatile halfback
Ron Rankin (19-275) most likely will miss the fray due to a
leg injury.

Look for a capable replacement in Bob Klenk, who is
the Scots scoring leader with 42 points and a 50 yards per
game rushing average. He will be joined by the club's top
runner, fullback Keith Collier who shows 60 yards per clash
to his credit. Rounding out the backfield is speedy Damon
Chambers, the Boro's third top rusher with a 46.2 mark per
outing.
Linebacker Willie Chealey remains the Scots top
tackier with his 61 stops followed by middle guard John
O'Rorke's 49. Also ranking among the leaders on Edin­
boro's hit squad are linebacker Jim Durkin (42), end Phil
Giavasis (41) and tackle Rick Jordan (36). Free safety Dave
Parker is the top patrolman in the secondary with three
interceptions and is now just one shy of the all-time
iriterception record of 13. Jordan tops the list of sacks with
his seven tackles on opposing quarterbacks.
Coach Denny Creehan's Fighting Scots will not return
home until November 5th in a conference matchup against
Lock Haven. The schedule finds Edinboro on the road next
week at Buffalo State and the following Saturday in a
critical conference clash at Clarion.

In just four short years since his appointment in
1979 as Edinboro's 14th president, Foster F. Diebold
has directed the University to its most significant
change in the institution's 125-year history - uni­
versity status. Under Diebold's leadership Edinboro
has undergone dramatic internal and external altera­
tions to provide northwestern Pennsylvanians with a
dynamic, multi-faceted educational force.

BORO’S BURKHOLDER ACADEMIC ALL-AMERICAN

Edinboro graduate Kirby Burkholder, All-American

Edinboro University takes pride in welcoming back a
special athletic alumnus today with the return of Kirby
Burkholder, a graduate this past spring who will bo
honored at today's game for his outstanding academic
achievement. The Fighting Scot swim ace, currently
pursuing his doctorate in nuclear engineering at MIT
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology) has been named
to the national Academic All-American team.
The Carlisle, PA product was a dean's list student
every semester while maintaining a 3.6 cumulative
average in physics. In addition, the University Honors
Program participant, served as a student research assis­
tant at the government's Oak Ridge, Tennessee National
Laboratory while also processing data from Arizona s Kitt
Peak National Observatory for a project involving solar
physics.
As a student researcher last summer in the govern­
ment lab at Oak Ridge, Tennessee, Burkholder took part in a
program administered by the Oak Ridge Associated Uni­
versities that dealt with ion optical studies and ionization
sources. He followed that up with an independent study
program at the Lord Corporation in nearby Erie where'he
researched surface properties of materials. The Edirtboro
graduate shared his work experiences with fellow class­
mates through a seminar he conducted for the Engineering
Club last fall.
/
An all-conference winner in both the 100-and 200yard backstroke, Burkholder has thrived on challenges both
In the pool and In the classroom. The soft-spoken Carlisle
High graduate overcame the drawback of his school not
having a swimming team by developing his aquatic skills at
the4ocal YMCA. Ho won four intercollegiate varsity letters
from coach Ed Erdos' swimming Scots and was an all­
conference finisher four straight years.

blocking efficiencies of offensive linemen
everywhere—from Division 1-A national
contenders to the most struggling Di­
vision III team—are being polished and
scrutinized more than ever and why a
good offensive lineman is suddenly as
prized as a game-breaking tailback.
Being an offensive lineman may not be
the most glamorous position, but a lot of
coaches think it’s one of the most difficult
positions in football.
"I’ve always felt the two hardest posi­
tions to play in football are the secondary
and the offensive line,” said one coach.
"You've got more things to learn. You may
have to block one play six different ways.
Every time the quarterback comes to the
line of scrimmage and sets you, yqu've got
a split second to make your decision.”
In the past, offensive linemen might
come from anywhere—an overloaded
fullback corps, the defensive line or
wherever there were players who

couldn’t quite make it and yet were too
big and strong to be sitting on the bench.
That’s changing.
“You have an ideal player in your mind,
but very seldom do you get that ideal,”
said a coach from the Far West. "You want
a good athlete, but you’re looking for the
physical qualities plus the subjective
things. Speed, quickness and size are part
of being a good athlete but you also want
an outstanding competitor with a good at­
titude, a guy who can really self-evaluate,
the kind of guy who can improve, im­
prove, improve.”
Knute Rockne may have looked for the

passes, fake passes. When an offensive
coordinator comes up with something he
thinks might work with the ball in the air,
there has to be time for the quarterback
and his receivers to interact. The offen­
sive lineman has to be prepared to pro­
vide enough time so his quarterback can
(a) have the time to set up and get the play
off and (b) not have to worry about some
6-7, 280-pound defensive tackle chopping
him in two every other down.
How is an offensive lineman supposed
to go about doing this? It’s not necessarily
size that’s the key, although many coaches
fantasize about perfect sizes for the

An offensive linemen hes to heve good feet when he’s blocking so he can stay in front of the
passer.

same qualities. So, what’s the difference
between today and the days when
Ronald Reagan used to toil in anonymity
on the offensive line at Eureka College in
Illinois?
There are lots of differences. The
plays—especially the passing plays—are
getting more complicated all the time.
Bigger, stronger, quicker and more soph­
isticated defensive players have dictated
that the offense evolve as well.
An offensive lineman has to learn all his
run assignments plus how to block for a
myriad of passing plays—screens, dropbacks, sprintouts, short passes, long

guards, tackles and centers that would
have them wearing size 60 coats and size
32 pants. There are some awfully good of­
fensive linemen in the 6-2, 235-pound
range who can block 6-5, 260-pound de­
fensive linemen with the ease of a tug
managing the Queen Mary.
"The key is the feet. An offensive line­
man has to have good feet so that when
he’s pass blocking he can stay in front of
the guy,” said one coach from the North­
west who installed a passing offense that
turned his team from last to first in the
space of one season. “In a passing situ­
ation, you don’t have to have a guy who

knocks somebody 10 feet off the ball. Tal­
ented feet and the ability to deliver a blow
make the defensive lineman start his
charge all over again. Size is okay if you
have it. But you can get by easier with
pass blocking than you can running the
football.”
Other coaches want their offensive
linemen to cast Mount Everest-type shad­
ows.
"The offensive linemen in our league
are really big,” said a West Coast coach
who’s made several trips to the Rose Bowl
in the past few years. "Physical size helps
a lineman; he’s bigger and harder to get
around.”
What would be a perfect offensive tine?
The tackles might be 6-7, 265 pounds
and the tight end 6-4, 235. For some
leagues those sizes will be bigger, for oth­
ers smaller.
But squat-like or sequoia-like, the feet
come into play again.
"You’ve got to have good feet,” the West
Coast coach said. "It’s almost like chicken
fighting; you’re putting your hands on a
guy trying to keep him away from your
body. The defensive linemen are so big
and strong these days, it’s incredible.”
A typical play for an offensive lineman
might go like this.
The play is called in the huddle. As the
lineman leaves the huddle for the line of
scrimmage he’s automatically thinking
about what his job is on that particular
play. Once he’s at the line, the lineman has
to recognize what defense the other team
is in and who he’s lined up against. Just
when he thinks he’s got everything in
order, the quarterback might call an
audible—changing the play if he sees a de­
fense the called play won’t work against—
and the whole thought process has to
start over a^mn. The linemen have to talk
to each ortier, asking for help or volun­
teering it* in case the other team stunts.
Once the ball is snapped and the quarter­
back drops back or sprints to either side
to throw the ball, the offensive lineman
has to stay with the player he’s assigned to
block until the last possible second.
All of this takes place in a matter of sec­
onds and if anybody along the line can’t
maintain his block for the time needed to
get the pass off, then the whole process is
scuttled. When that happens, the quar­
terback is either sacked or he starts
scrambling, trying to throw on the run.
That’s when the offensive lineman’s
errors are broadcast to the crowd. When
the pass is successful, the eyes have been
following the ball, long having left the
area where the offensive linemen are just
finishing their struggle to keep some
gigantic defensive lineman from getting
to the quarterback.

Those passing plays that captivate the
crowd while the offensive linemen strug­
gle in the trenches against the defense are
varied. Some teams run a strictly dropback passing offense where the quarter­
back takes the snap and retreats directly
behind the center. Others run play-action
schemes where the quarterback fakes to
a runner going into the line and rolls to
the right or left to look for receivers run­
ning their patterns. Then again, there’s
passing off the option.
The assignments for various passing at­
tacks differ.
Dropback: When the play calls for the
quarterback to take the snap and retreat
behind the center, staying in the protec­
tive pocket set up by his teammates, an
offensive lineman must stay under con­
trol. The block is aggressive, but the line­
man cant overextend himself and let the
defensive player slip inside his block. In
blocking for a dropback passing situation,
the lineman has to block from the inside
out. The feet should be parallel and the
shoulders square. The second the ball is
snapped, the offensive lineman should
deliver a good blow to the chest of the de­
fensive player and keep the arms ex­
tended within the width of the shoulders.
Several years ago, the rules on holding
were changed to allow offensive linemen
to use their hands if they keep them
within the width of the shoulders. Still,
oftentimes that’s not enough for eager de­
fensive linemen who can’t wait to crash
the party. If an offensive lineman can't
maintain absolute control of his op­
ponent, he tries to run him outside of
where the quarterback is setting up to
pass. In dropback situations, an offensive

dard procedure on a sprintout is to fire
out in a manner not unlike a running play.
The lineman must maintain the contact,
especially on the side of the center where
the play is developing, because the quar­
terback is going to be gping down the line
of scrimmage. Penetration by a defensive
lineman can easily kill the play so the of­
fensive linepi6n must be aware of where
the quart^back is at all times.
Screen Pass; On this play, the offensive
lineman gives the defensive player a hit,
holds for one count, and then lets the
player slip by him in what appears to be a
clear avenue to the quarterback. The line­
man then gets out as wide as possible in
the direction of the screen where he helps
block for the receiver.
Teams that rely strictly on a dropback
attack put the most pressure on offensive
linemen.
"If you’re a pure dropback team, that
allows the defense to lay its ears back and
come after you,” said one midwestern
coach. "The quarterback sets back there
in the pocket and you’ve got to protect
him for a certain amount of time. When
the defensive line starts to mix up things
with stunts, it’s tough on the offensive
linemen. They’ve got to switch off. If a
team moves the quarterback around, it
makes it tougher on the defensive line­
man because they don’t know where the
guy is going to be.’’

In those five simple words, spoken

JL W

more than a half century ago when in­
tercollegiate football was swinging along to the tune
of the single and double wing formations, and the
Notre Dame "Bo}c" or shft, Jess Harper dismissed all
of the claims made by some of college football's most
hallowed names as to who really did what to establish
the basic tools for what has become the American
game offootball.

And in so doing, Harper also dismissed
himself, because as coach of Notre Dame
back in the teens, he was given credit for
developing the forward pass after suc­
cessfully utilizing it with Knute Rockne
and Gus Dorais.
Harper probably was being a bit harsh
on such football pioneers as Amos Alonzo
Stagg, Walter Camp, Percy Haughton,
Glenn (Pop) Warner, Bob Zuppke,
Rockne, and such later innovators as Wal­
lace Wade and Clark Shaughnessy. This
group, more than any other, really devel­
oped the tactics and techniques which we
see every weekend on gridirons around
the nation ... and they did most of it
when there were only 46 states in the
Union and the Wright Brothers’ idea of
flying was still a concept whose time had
not yet come.
It really is a bit startling to discover that
so much of what we take for granted in
this sport had its genesis among so few of
the game’s great immortals, most of
whom were born more than a century

ago. Some might consider this the first
symptom of a sport gone moribund, but
that really isn’t the case. After all, there is
only so much you can do with eleven men
on each side, playing on a field that has
distinct boundaries and under rules
which are most precise as to how the
game will be played.
It is what one does under those con­
straints that matters, and those old mas­
ters, once they divorced the sport from
the rugby game, found all sorts of won­
derful maneuvers that helped to develop
football’s current popularity. Each fall
millions of people fill stadiums all over the
country to watch ... and wonder ... and
cheer. And while they’re cheering, per­
haps they—and today’s coaches, as well—
could spare an extra hip-hip-hooray for
the following football innovators.
Amos Alonzo Stagg was part of our
great-grandparents’ past, but American
college football would be extinct without
him, and that includes today’s game in
which both teams are using the T-for-

mation. Stagg invented it—and he did it
nearly a century ago—in 1888—when
rules changes brought linemen and backs
closer together. Six years later his quar­
terbacks were taking direct snaps from
the center as they do today.
Even before he established those Tformation ^echanics, Stagg had installed
the end-anound play in 1891 while coach­
ing at Springfield YMCA in Massachusetts
(now Springfield College). Before the turn
of the century, his offense included a de­
layed buck (1899) from the T-formation,
allowing the QB to fake first to one back,
then hand the ball to another. In 1903, his
University of Chicago teams, led by quar­
terback Walter Eckersall, had a deadly
quarterback keeper play, much like that
used in the split-T of two decades ago and
certainly the father of the keepers of to­
day’s Wishbone and Veer formations.
Stagg also was the first to establish the
passing game as an integral part of an of­
fense, following its legalization in 1906.
His Chicago teams that year had a most
sophisticated attack, including a replica
of today’s play-action sequences where a
quarterback will first fake a run, then
drop back and pass. That team also used
the sprint-out pass, crossing patterns, the
use of a single flanker, or split end, and
the use of double flankers as are seen in
the pro-set formations. Many of these
Stanford’s Clark Shaughnessy perfected the T-formation.

were not popularized until the 1940s
when, as we shall shortly see, Clark
Shaughnessy revived Stagg’s system and
spruced it up.
However, a quarter-century after es­
tablishing the basic patterns for a passing
attack—an offense that Harper helped to
popularize while he had Rockne and Dorais at Notre Dame—Stagg tossed in the
use of men in motion or "pedingers, ”as he
called them, after the player on his Chi­
cago team who became the first to peel off
and run to either side of the field, before
sprinting downfield to catch a pass.
Stagg didnt stop with the T-formation.
He developed the onsides kick in 1894,
then used a placekick for field goals in

1897, a feature that lay dormant for al­
most forty years, as dropkickers domi­
nated the game until the early 1930s.
Stagg also had a player who could center
the ball with a spiral snap, and used this
talent in 1899 to introduce the short punt
formation, where a kicker stood about
seven yards behind the quarterback.
Prior to this, the ball was rolled backward
on the ground from center to be kicked.
Shortly after the turn of the century, in
1904, he developed the first blocking sled,
padded his goal posts to avoid injury to
players in 1906 and was the first to turn
his players out for spring practice in 1914.
In that same era were Walter Gamp
and Percy Haughton. The former is

touted as the father of American football,
but his most significant contribution was
introducing, in 1882, the use of signals to
begin a play. Haughton, like Stagg, was
not wedded to the mass-power play sys­
tem that Camp had popularized, and most
believe that Haughton's greatest single
achievement was wresting control of the
Rules Committee from Camp in 1910 and
helping to unleash the forward pass. The
forward pass opened up the game and
made it more appealing.
At the same time, the rules stipulated
that the ball must be thrown five yards
right or left, and five yards back of the
spot where it was put into play. If the play
was unsuccessful, a team was tagged with
a 15-yard penalty. Haughton' helped to
change those rules with the addition of an
extra, or fourth, down in which to make a
first down. This meant acMed protection
for the passer and the ^receiver (who
could be hit while the ball was in flight)
and, of course, no restrictions on passing
distances.
Haughton, who was also Harvard’s
coach during this time, is credited with
first using defensive signals, and, in 1904,
with developing the trap play.
The wingback formations—single and
double—were Pop Warner’s creations
and they dominated college football from
their inception in 1908-1910 until the early
1940s when the T-formation came into
vogue. And they’re not dead yet since
many teams use them as "shotgun” align­
ments on obvious third down passing situ­
ations.
The single wing, with one back flanked
outside the end, was basically a power
formation ^utilizing a tailback who stood
seven yajAis behind center to handle the
ball. In its pure form, two tackles were set
side-by-side and the heart of the offense
ran through them. Warner popularized it
when Jim Thorpe was his tailback at Car­
lisle and regularly beat up on the East’s
larger schools. Though power was its
hallmark, Warner’s agile mind instilled
plenty of speed and deception, with re­
verses and passes as integral parts of his
single wing offense.
When he went to Stanford in the 1920s,
he used the double wing, flanking both
halfbacks outside the ends. This offense
was built on a hard-running fullback as
the lone setback, abetted by a series of
double and even triple reverses. When
Warner brought his Stanford team to Yan­
kee Stadium in 1928, he dazzled coaches
and media alike with a devastating of­
fense built on these principles, and soon
the double wing had its circle of disciples.
Warner’s creative genius has left other
legacies. One is the body block, which he
developed in 1906 as an adjunct to the

shoulder block; another was the use of
protective pads, which he fashioned by
molding soaked pieces of fabric into the
various body contours, then coating them
with varnish to assume durability.
Despite Jess Harper’s disavowal, he
put the passing game on a popular plane
when his Notre Dame team, with Rockne
and Dorais, defeated Army in 1914. They
popped the eyes of the eastern press with
their well-executed passing game, a facet
of play little seen in the East at that time.
Harper was also the first coach to instruct
his passer to throw the ball away if he
couldnt find an open receiver (1915) and
popularized the "shift” principle that be­
came Rockne’s hallmark—and hence the
rival to Warner’s formations—for the
next 15 years.
Knute Rockne admitted that he was
never an innovator, but he was a master
salesman for the sport, as well as for his
own system, which had its roots in
Harper’s and Stagg’s methods. Rockne
also wrote—and rewrote—coaching
books which helped to inject his per­
sonality and enthusiasm into the game,
particularly his ability to depart from the
usual. The game became better when
others followed these dictums.
Bob ZuppkC; along with Warner, was
perhaps Rockne’s foremost coaching ri­
val. Zuppke’s Illinois teams became pio­
neers in the passing game, as he was the
first to drop back his offensive guards as
pass blockers (1920). He developed the

ing up the game with the forward pass.

Jess Harper’s Notre Dame teams demonstrated the effectiveness of a well-executed passing
game.

"flea-flicker pass” in 1925. In that year’s
game vs. Penn, a pass went from a wouldbe punter to the right end, who then took
a few steps forward to draw the tacklers,
and then tossed the ball back to Red
Grange. Grange picked up a screen of
blockers and ran for a TD .
Zuppke, who came directly from Oak
Park High School, Illinois, to the Univer­
sity of Illinois as a head coach, also intro­
duced the huddle for calling signals and
utilized his guards as linebackers to de­
fend against passes (1920). He was con­
stantly improving on the various spread
pass formations and claims to have been
the first to use the screen pass. Few dis­
pute the claim that he popularized it at
Illinois in the 1920s.
George Halas, coach of the Chicago
Bears, revived the T in the 1930s and
called Clark Shaughnessy; then coach­
ing at the University of Chicago, to help
him perfect the system. Shaughnessy
studied the various aspects of putting
men in motion, and when he became
Stanford’s head coach in 1940, took the
system and had an unbeaten season, in­
cluding a victory over Nebraska in the

Rose Bowl.
Shaughnessy was a moody genius who
forever tinkered with offenses, but his
greatest fl^fr was in developing the little
wrinkles—using men in motion and the
slotting of receivers to open a defense and
better utilize a running offense.
From his success at Stanford came the
revolution of the T-formation in college
football, though the key to Shaughnessy’s
early success was the ball-handling wiz­
ardry of QB Frank Albert, whose slickness mesmerized defenses and enabled
such talented runners as Hugh Gallerneau, Pete Kmetovic and Norm Standlee to romp, and also to gain himself extra
time to execute Shaughnessy’s myriad
passing formations.
An excellent coach for years at Alabama
and Duke, Wallace Wade revolutionized
the protective equipment by introducing
lighter, yet better-fitting pads which ad­
ded speed and greater safety for his play­
ers. He also was the first coach to equip
his backs with low-cut shoes, .when he or­
dered a pair made in 1925 for his great
Alabama running back Johnny Mack

he biggest problem college foot­
ball defenders have is not de­
fending any one individual for­
mation but working against the multiple
formations that have become die vogue.
"Defense is mostly recognition," says a
Southeastern Conference coach. "If a
team shifts from one formation into an­
other, it slows down the recognition time
for the defense, and that can make the
difference between a gain and a loss."

LEARNING TO DEFEND THE FORMATIONS
continued

A Big Ten defensive tackle concurs. "I
want to be able to react as quickly as pos­
sible/’ he says. "In the line, you don’t have
time to stop and think about what’s hap­
pening. But when I’m set for one for­
mation and the offense shifts into an­
other, it takes time for me to adjust, and
that slows down my reaction time.’’
The problem is just as acute for line­
backers. "When the offense shifts from
one formation to another, we have to
change our coverage,” says a linebacker
from an eastern independent. "It’s even
possible we might go from a man cov­
erage to zone, or vice versa. The offense
only has to set one second after the shift.
It takes us longer than that to switch, and
they may catch us while we’re still on the

action fake and come up too soon, I could
see a pass going over my head for a touch­
down.
"If I know a team is basically either a
running or passing team, I can ‘cheat,’
playing one more than the other. But if
they do both well. I’m between a rock and
a hard place.”
But even in the secondary, the multiple
formations cause problems. "You take a
team like San Jose State,” says a South­
west Conference defensive back. "They
can run 5-6 variations on each play. They
came down here to play Baylor a couple of
years ago, and the Baylor DBs never did
figure out what was happening to them.
You’ve got to be switching coverages all
the time or they’ll nickel-and-dime you all

The defense must be alert for shifting formations.

move.
In the secondary, too, defenders have to
change coverages when a shift comes, but
defensive backs have a slight luxury be­
cause they’re playing further off the ball
and thus have somewhat more time. Their
greatest problem is what teams run out of
whatever formation they’re in.
"My biggest worry is a team which is
really balanced between running and
passing,” says a Pac-10 cornerback, "be­
cause I have two jobs: defending against a
pass or helping against the run. If I’m slow
coming up to support on a run, they could
rip off a big gain. But if I go for a play

day with those short slant passes and
then, when you’re finally looking for one
of those, hit you with the bomb.”
The coaches have to keep alive, too.
“With all the changing formations,” says a
Big Eight coach, "you’ve got to make sure
you’re not, for instance, caught in a nickel
(five-back) defense when they’re playing
two tight ends, or they’ll run right over
you.
"The key is watching who comes out of
the game, not who goes in. A wide re­
ceiver might go in, but you dont know
what that means until you see whether
he’s replacing another wide reciever or a

tight end or a running back. That tells you
what kind of formation thby’U be in.”
Some coaches believe in attacking the
multiple formation offenses with multi­
ple formation defenses. A defensive
coach for a midwestern independent ex­
plains it this way: "I want to use so many
different defenses that an offensive
coach looking at films says, ‘We can’t pos­
sibly prepare for all those defenses, so
we’ll just pare our offense down to 4 or 5
plays that we can really work on .’Then, in
the first half of the game, we analyze
what they’re doing with their offense and
attack them.”
Sometimes, too, defensive coaches will
try to structure their defenses in such a
way that they force the offense to do
something it doesn’t want to do.
"If you’re playing a Wishbone team,”
says a Big Eight coach, "with a quarter­
back who is a good runner but a halfback
who is outstanding, you want to take
away the pitch. So, you have your de­
fensive end go upf ield on every play. That
way, the outstanding back might carry
eight times in the game and the quarter­
back 20. You might still lose—but you’re
giving yourself a better chance.”
Football is a bruising game, but it’s also a
cbess game, as offensive and defensive
coaches continually try to get an edge.
One offensive formation is successful for
a while, and then the defense catches up
with it and another one comes in. "I’m
scared to death that somebody will come
out with the single wing,” says a Big Ten
coach. "I’ve never had to defense it and
I’m sure it would drive everybody crazy
for a while.”
The Wishbone offense is a good exam­
ple of that. For a time, it was the most suc­
cessful college offense. In recent years,
though, it’s been phased out; even some of
the well-known Wishbone teams are us­
ing other formations this year.
"One of the big reasons for its success at
first was the fact that not many teams
were using it,” says a Pac-10 coach. “It’s
hard to defense an offense you don’t run
yourself; you’ll see that running teams
always have the most trouble defensively
against passing teams.
"That’s because you never see the plays
run at full-speed in practice. You can have
your ‘scout’ team (reserves and redshirts)
run the plays, but they certainly aren’t go­
ing to run them with the skill or speed
that a real Wishbone opponent will. So,
when you get in a game, you’re shocked
by how fast those backs are going by you.”
Another problem was that the defense
didn’t know how to stop the Wishbone at
first. "The first idea,” says a Southeastern
Conference coach, "was that we’d assign a
specific defensive man to each offensive
continued

19t

LEARNING TO DEFEND THE FDRMATIDNS
continued

man. One man would have the quarter­
back, another man would take the trailing
back, and so forth.
“The problem was that the offense
would figure out who was responsible
for the quarterback and theyd do what
they call 'load' blocking, double teaming
him, and the quarterback would run free
all day.”
The next advance, notes a Big Ten
coach, was to assign areas of re­
sponsibility, and to change them on every
play, so the offense wouldnt catch on.
"Then, we got more sophisticated and had
players checking things off. First, they’d
look for the quarterback to carry the ball;
if he didnt, then they’d look for the pitch,
and so forth.”
But, most coaches and players agree,
the Wishbone can still be a potent of­
fense. "I don’t think it’s so much that the
defense caught up with it,” says the coach
of an eastern independent, “as that it got
harder and harder to get four good backs
to run it. And, if you’ve got one really good
back, you want to run him more.
"I thought at one time I had that offense
figured out. We beat a good Wishbone
team one year, stopped them cold. But the
next year, we played them again and they

really drilled us. So, I have to admit, it’s a
good formation.”
A Southwest Conference defensive line­
man agrees. “The thing that always really
impressed me about it was that it’s such a
good power running formation. Every­
body gets caught up in the option play,
following the flow, and then they run that
fullback dive up the middle. I’ll bet if you
checked most Wishbone teams, that was
their big play.
“And, the tough thing about playing
against a Wishbone team is that you have
to be so disciplined. They’re always wellbalanced, running to both sides, so you
cant favor one side or the other. You have
to carry out your assignment exactly, be­
cause if one man gets blocked out, that’s
all it takes for them to make a big gain.
“The only time I really enjoyed playing
against a Wishbone was when we were
ahead with not much time left. Then,
they’d have to throw, and I knew we had
them.”
Another good running formation is the
I-formation. Says a Pac-10 defender, “It’s a
good power running formation. They re­
ally come at you. It’s not a real tough pass­
ing formation t«i defend against because
the backs cant get out very easily as pass

receivers.
“If you can match up physically against
a team, the I-formation doesnt present a
lot of problems.”
The best passing formation is, of
course, the pro set, with split backs.
“Good passing teams can get five re­
ceivers out from that formation,” says a
Big Ten coach, “and that puts a lot of pres­
sure on the DBS and linebackers. You’d
better have people that can cover.”
And now, the trend in college ball is to
use a single running back with two wide
receivers and two tight ends. That puts
pressure on the defense in several ways.
“The vogue in college ball has been to
have fewer people on the defensive front,
but when the offense puts three blockers
on both sides of the ball, the defense has
to have more people up front,” says a Pac10 coach.
“It gives the offense perfect balance, be­
cause they can run to either side, with the
tight end leading the blocking. Or, they
can use either tight end as a pass receiver
and give the defense fits if they don’t have
somebody who can cover.
“I don’t know any offensive formation
that is easy to stop—but I’d have to say
that’s the hardest one going now.”

He is a thinking-man’s football player.
Or so he thought.
One day last season the wide-out was
chatting with his brother, a former col­

match, his brother shared a minute point
he had noticed during the game. He won­
dered if his pass-catching brother knew.

“He said he could tell whenever I was
going out for a pass,” the wide-out said,

The folks who participate in major col­
lege football can be sliced into two cate­
gories, the trickers and the tricked.
You’re either doing it to somebody or
somebody is doing it to you.
Call it deception. Call it playing smart.
But make no mistake, there’s more to col­
lege football than the neat configuration
of X’s and O’s shovelled at tube viewers
every Saturday.
Everybody in college football is looking
for the edge, that little bit that divides
winner from losers. It’s awfully nice to
think you can practice hard five times a
week, eat right and give your life to Nau­
tilus and be assured of a winning football
team.
It’s awfully nice. But it’s not always true.
The really successful major college pro­
grams are those that go beyond sound
technique and diet. The coaches at these
schools give their players a little bit more.

As linemen go, he’s not that big (6-0), or
tough (his middle name’s Forrest) or
angry (his most aggressive hobby is snow
skiing).
But this lineman, who plays for a major
college program in the Southwest, is
shrewd. No doubt about that.

He lends an attentive ear at all team
meetings. His teammates voted him,
"Most Likely to Work up a Sweat’’ for his
flawless work habits in practice. He’s the
kind of guy you see walking around cam­
pus squeezing a rubber ball or knocking
down dormitories. Anything to keep in
shape, get that little edge.
He doesn’t like to talk about what he
calls “the keys,’’ those subtle signals he
picks up and uses to influence a defensive
lineman this way, or wrestle that way.
Nope, private stuff. When you’ve got
the edge, you hang on to it like a sack of
macadamia nuts. No blabbing it to some
newspaper for every lineman in America
to read.
However, in the interests of honest
reporting, our pal the lineman agreed to
let us in on one of his deepest, darkest
secrets with the promise that his name
and mouthguard be changed to protect
his identity.
Remember this. You never know when

not.
"Then my brother pointed out some­
thing I was doing, not even knowing it.
When I wasn’t going out, I’d wipe my
hands once. On the line. But on plays
when I was getting ready to catch a pass,
I wiped twice. On the line and in the
huddle. I gave myself away every time.’’
The wide-out’s reply: “I hope those DBs
(defensive backs) aren’t seeing every­
thing you are.’’
Right there, the wide-out resolved
never to commit another towel tip- off.
You’ll know him when you see him. He’s
the guy who always has his hands in
terrycloth—on the line, in the huddle and
in his business law classes.

We’re not talking about trick plays,
about draws, end-arounds and misdirec­

Nope, we’re talking big-league decep­

At this point, we should pause to slice
our discussion of college football trickery
into two main categories:
Category No. 1: tricks, reads, edges
(legal).
Category No. 2: tricks, reads, edges (leg­
end).
Let’s deal with the second category
first.
"I never saw this,” prefaced a Division I
coach, a little too insistently.
"Years ago, back when I was an assis­
tant, I remember hearing about one fella
making it so he’d never fumble the foot­
ball again as long as he lived.

"I look at'fingertips,’’ our lineman said.
At what? countered the glib reporter.
"Fingertips,”our lineman repeated.
Are you going to be a manicurist?
"No, I'm serious. One look at the tips of a
guy’s fingers and I usually can tell if a big
pass rush is coming.”
You’re joking.
“Nope.”
How does that work?
"If the guy’s fingertips change color,
that means he’s really coming out hard.”
Say what?
"It’s simple. If he’s coming out hard he
wants to get a big ol’ jump off the ball, like
a human slingshot or something. After
the snap, he’s all over you. The only way I
know to do that is to put all your weight
forward, to lean into it so much you can
hardly keep from falling flat on your face.
When a guy does that he’s got all his
weight on his fingertips.
“Have any idea what that does to his
fingertips?”

eyes in the direction of the route he was
about to run. “It took me a while to catch

make the axe more meaningful. Before, it
was the end of the season against a big
rival and the game was the important
thing. I think the axe may become more of
a factor now.”
To be sure, the axe is only one of many
such football trophies exchanged be­
tween schools. Many of them are not
quite as famous as California and Stan­
ford’s axe or Minnesota and Michigan’s
Little Brown Jug or Indiana and Purdue’s
Old Oaken Bucket, but they are every bit
as much a part of college football.
There are, for instance, at least four
Victory Bells (Cincinnati-Miami of Ohio,
Duke-North Carolina, Pacific-San Jose
State and Southern Cal-UCLA); one regu­
lar Bell (Nebraska-Missouri); one Mission
Bell (Long Beach State-Fullerton), and one
Blue Key Victory Bell, named for an hon­

There are at least three Governor’s

umni Governor’s Cup (DartmouthPrinceton) and one governor’s cup that
masquerades as something called the
Broomhead Trophy, donated by Fred
Broomhead for the winner of the BrownRhode Island game.
On a lower level, politically speaking,
there is one Mayor’s Cup (San Diego-San
Diego State) and one Mayor’s Trophy
(Southern Methodist-Texas Christian).
And there are all sorts of Memorial tro­
phies, named after alumni or off icials: the
Charles L. Anspach Trophy (Central
Michigan-Eastern Michigan); the Norman
E. Tice Memorial (Yale-Connecticut); the
Class of 1915 Trophy (Cornell-Dartmouth); the Commander in Chief Trophy
(Army-Navy-Air Force); the Centennial
Trophy (Princeton-Rutgers), and even the
Paul Bunyan Trophy, although Bunyan, a
native Minnesotan, may seem a little out
of place at the Michigan-Wisconsin State

The winner of the Missouri-Iowa State
game gets the Telephone Trophy, which
has a pretty unusual beginning. It seems
that before a Missouri-Iowa State game in
1959, Coach Dan Devine of Missouri and
one of his assistants put on their headsets,
and the wires were all tangled up. As a
result, they could hear the Iowa State
coaches. Devine, fearing that Iowa State
could hear Missouri’s plans, got quite up­
set, and, later that season, tried to set up a
relay system using telephones from the

press box. Those wires got crossed, too,
and finally Devine settled on walkietalkies. Northwestern Bell of Ames, how­
ever, had a golden telephone made into a

mounted on a block of wood.
There are a few trophies that are down­
right mysteries to outsiders.
The Silver Shako, for example, between
the Citadel and VMI. According to Ath­
letic Director Edward Teague of the Cit­
adel, a shako is a cadet’s dress hat with an
elongated plume. The Silver Shako is an
actual hat, silver-plated, and mounted on
a walnut base.
Or there’s the Sabine Shoe between
Southwestern Louisiana and Lamar. It’s
named for the river that runs between
Texas and Louisiana.
That area was settled by the Caddo Indi­
ans, hence,Chief Caddoisan eight-foot tall
wooden statue of an Indian chief, that
goes to the winner of the Northwestern
Louisiana-Stephen F. Austin State game.
The cheerleaders of the schools have to
haul the chief around in a yan from game
to game.
A couple of live animals have had their
plans in the football rivalries, too. In 1935,
Floyd of Rosedale was a national cham­
pionship hog, who became the object of a
wager between the governors of Iowa
and Minnesota. Now he is a 15V2-inch
bronze statue that goes to the winner of
that game. Illibuck was a turtle that went
to the winner of the Illinois-Ohio State
game, starting in 1925. But the turtle died
in 1927, and now the Illibuck is a wooden
replica. Members of the honorary soci­
eties of the schools meet on the field at
halftime to smoke the peace pipe and pay
homage.
A couple of supposed trophies are mys­
teries even to the schools. Idaho and Mon­
tana are supposed to play for the Little
Brown Stein/and Idaho and Idaho State
are supposed to play for the Gem Bowl,
but officials in Idaho have no idea what or
where the trophies are. The Idaho
schools will admit, however, to playing
for what one official called the “world’s
ugliest trophy’’ in basketball—the King
Spud Trophy, a 30-pound, silver potato.
Other than the mysterious trophies in
Idaho, all of the trophies have traditions
behind them. Some are hotly contested;
some are mere souvenirs of a game. But,
undoubtedly, the winners are proud to
have them, for as long as possible.
In Villanova’s case, that’s a long time.
Temple and Villanova used to play for the
Quaker City Award, a sculpture of two
cast iron football players on a pedestal,
created by sculptor Joe Brown. But Vil­
lanova quit playing football two years
ago, and, as a result of its 32-7 victory
over Temple, retired the Quaker City
Award.
Few trophies—no matter how famous
or infamous—mean so much as that—

ball program just to keep one.

COLORFUL
NICKNAMES

he early years of college football
produced many innovations in
the game; legendary fcoaches and
players; heated school rivalries, colorful
characters; and some great nicknames,
the likes of which are seldom seen these
days. Coaches and players acquired nick­
names from colleagues, fans or sportswriters, and those nicknames enlivened
the already lively game.
Here are a few of the more interesting
monikers from college football’s past:

Edinboro embarked on a new era of football four years
ago with the appointment of Dennis Creehan as the ninth
head football coach in the University's history. Under his
leadership the Fighting Scots raced to one of Edinboro's
finest grid seasons ever this past year with a glittering 9-2
record, the Pennsylvania Conference Western Division
Championship and a 12th place national ranking among
NCAA Division II schools throughout the country.
Enroute to their highly successful campaign the Scots
figured in 20 team and individual records which wore
either ♦'ed or broken. Twelve new marks wore established
while eight other records wore tied. The Scots offense
finished in high gear averaging 26.7 points per game while
a stingy defensive unit yielded only 10 points per contest.
Edinboro was ranked eighth nationally during the year
before dropping a tightly contested 24-22 clash with East
Stroudsburg for the Pennsylvania Conference Champion­
ship.
Creehan was a captain of Edinboro State's 1970 team
that captured the Lambert Bowl, emblematic of the best

college football team In the East, won the Pennsylvania
Conference Championship and earned a berth in the NAIA
national playoffs. He starred in the secondary as a strong
safety that season when the Fighting Scots finished their
regular campaign undefeated with a 9-0 record.
Prior to a three-year stint on the Edinboro staff as an
assistant, Creehan served as recruiting coordinator at the
University of Pittsburgh in 1974 under Coach Johnny
Majors. The following year he was a member of the
Carnegie-Mellon University football staff as the team's
offensive coordinator.
Upon graduation from Edinboro in 1971, Creehan was
named offensive coordinator at Keystone Oaks High School
in Pittsburgh where he directed an offense that netted 300
yards per game. A year later as Keystone Oaks' defensive
coordinator, he tutored a unit that allowed only eight points
per game and permitted only a 33 percent completion mark
by opposing quarterbacks.
Creehan distinguished himself in the coaching ranks
as defensive coordinator at Edinboro in 1976 when the
Scots were ranked fourth among the nation's NCAA
schools in rushing defense and claimed 18 interceptions.
In the spring of 1977, he performed as acting head coach
for Edinboro's Bill McDonald who was on a sabbatical
leave.
The young mentor has likewise had an outstanding
athletic career as a football player. After starring as both a
halfback and strong safety at Bethel Park High School, the
Castle Shannon, Pa., native accumulated numerous grid­
iron honors at Edinboro. At the conclusion of his senior
campaign for the Fighting Scots, ho was accorded first
team All-East honors by the ECAC and first team All-State
Associated Press accolades as the Scots' strong safety, in
addition, he was named to the Pittsburgh Press All-District
first team and to the NAIA District 18 All-Star squad. He
was one of the three 1970 captains who accepted Edin­
boro's Lambert Bowl trophy at the Lambert Awards
Banquet in New York City.
The 33-year-old coach's .575 winning percentage
record via his four-year total of 23-16-1 moved him to
second place in the win category behind his previous head
coach Bill McDonald who holds a .614 rating with a 54-34-7
mark.
The son of Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Creehan of Bethel Park,
the Fighting Scot coach resides in Edinboro with his wife,
Linda, and their two sons, Kevin and Casey.

CIMARRON '84
THIS ONES GOT THE TOUCH.
The Cadillac touch. It's everywhere. You can feel it when you put
Cadillac's road-hugging Touring Suspension to the test. You can see it
... inside and out. From leather-faced front buckets with lumbar support
to a hand-buffed exterior finish. It's attention to detail, too.
Like push-button air. And aluminum alloy wheels. You've got to drive
this car... and experience the Cadillac touch.

week's tailgate party?
Just ask everybody
answer these simple questions.
Which position requires the most
athletic ability? Who would be the
best athlete on your favorite team?
Sounds easy, doesn’t it? But you
might be surprised at how many differ­
ent answers you'll get.
Everybody knows defensive backs are
the most skilled athletes on the field. Or are'
they?
How about those wide receivers? They're the
guys who can outrun the wind, leap over tall
buildings and juggle a football on their fingertips
with all the dexterity of a circus performer.
What about the running backs, the glamour
boys of the college game? Surely they must have
an abundance of athletic skills.
And how can you overlook the quarterback,

ai r company
CO

who has to use his
arm and his mind as
well as his feet?
And then there are the line­
backers, who must combine many
of the athletic skills of defensive backs
with the physical strength of defensive
linemen. Wouldn't that combination
place them at the top of the scale when it
comes to athletic ability?

That leaves only the offensive and
defensive linemen out of the picture.
And if you think those 260-pound
Goliaths don't have great athletic
ability, you tell them that.
Thus, what appears to have been a
rather simple question may not have a sim­
ple answer.
Even the college coaches arent sure.

“Our best group of athletes would be our de­
fensive backs,” says the coach of one of the At­
lantic Coast Conference teams. "But there have
been times when I would
continued

Athletic Ability
continued

have to say the best athlete on our team
was our quarterback.
"There are some great quarterbacks
who are not great athletes in the true
sense of the word. But there are some
great quarterbacks who are truly great
athletes.”
"There’s no doubt in my mind that it has
to be the quarterback,” says an eastern
coach who has counted on his QBs to keep
his teams among the nation’s offensive
powers. "He has to be a super, super ath­
lete. Just look for the teams that are the
most successful and you’ll find a lot of
great quarterbacks.”
"I think it all depends on the system you
use and what you expect from the players
at each position,” says the defensive coor­
dinator of another team. "In some sys­
tems, the linebackers often have to be the
best group of athletes.
"There are some other defensive
schemes in which the defensive ends
must have superior athletic ability. The
secondary people always rank at or near
the top of the list. If you asked me to name
the best athlete on our team. I’d have to
say it’s our free safety.”
One of the many coaches to learn his
craft under the old master, the late Paul
"Bear” Bryant, considers the strong safety
to be the best athlete in the game today.
"The wolfman, or whatever else you
call the strong safety, is usually the best
athlete on any team,” he says. “He’s the
guy who anchors the defense. He’s got to
be tough enough to tackle the biggest run­
ning backs and fast enough to cover the
best receivers.”
“I rate the quarterback and tight ends
among the best athletes. I’ve seen some
Wishbone quarterbacks who could play
almost any position.
"I think the tight end is often over­
looked when you talk about athletic skills.
In many of the offensive systems used to­
day, the tight end has to block like a
tackle, catch like a wide receiver and run
like a running back.”
Many coaches rate wide receivers and
defensive backs as the players with the
most athletic qualities, but one southern
coach points out that many linemen have
most of those qualities.
And just what are those qualities? What
is the magic formula coaches use to mea­
sure the degree of greatness in an athlete?
Almost every coach starts with either
speed or quickness. They are not one and
the same. A player can be extremely
quick without being exceptionally fast.
Not every great running back is a world
class sprinter a la Herschel Walker.
“Speed has to be first because you cant
be a great athlete unless you can run,”
claims one coach, who lists agility and bal­
ance as two other key qualities of a great
athlete.

Flexibility, size, strength, alertness and
mental and physical toughness are other
characteristics.
One coach says that a great athlete is
one who can play a variety of sports and
play them well.
Another feels his best athlete is the kid
who can play the most positions. And still
another thinks too much emphasis is
placed on speed.
Raw speed is certainly a factor, but it
isn’t the only factor in determining a great

athlete.
A lot of other factors go unnoticed,
which means that quarterbacks and line­
men often dont get proper credit for the
skills they possess.
“A great athlete is one who is selfconfident,” one coach says. “Quarterback
is a position which demands that. A great
athlete has to have great mental aware­
ness. No position demands that more than
quarterback.

“If the great athletes are at the skill posi­
tions, then where do you put someone
like Hugh Green, who played defensive
end for Pitt? Or Dave Rimington, the su­
per center at Nebraska? Or Bruce Clark,
who was a defensive tackle for Penn
State?
"How do you compare a 170-pound de­
fensive back who runs the 40-yard sprint
in 4.4 with a 260-pound lineman who
runs a 4.7? Which one is the better ath­
lete? If you consider speed as the most im­
portant factor, it has to be the back. But I

S2t

don’t think that’s always true.”
If a college coach put a "Calling All Ath­
letes” sign on the bulletin board, what
kind of team would he have?
There was a time when he would have
had a room full of quarterbacks. Just
about every coach used to recruit six or
seven quarterbacks. Some still recruit
four or five with each new crop.
Most high school coaches will pick out
two or three of their athletes and train
them as quarterbacks. Colleges recruit
players like that because of their athletic

ability. The players may not have the arm
to be great college quarterbacks, but have
the athletic skills to play other positions.
The biggest improvement in athletic
skills has been made by linemen.
Linemen today are much better ath­
letes than they were five or 10 years ago.
Colleges recruit a 6-4, 220-pound tight
end who can run, and by the time he
comes out of a college weight training
program he could be a 270-pound tackle
who can still run.
“Not every football player has great nat­
ural athletic talent,” points out a re­
cruiter. "But what happened to football at
every level is that today ’s players are big­
ger, stronger and faster than they used to
be. There are more people playing the
game who possess the skills you associate
with a great athlete, You find kids as far
down as elementary programs doing
things like running drills.
"Now you can’t take a guy who runs a
five flat 40 and train him to run a 4.5.
That’s just not possible.
"But what is happening is that all these
kids who used to run 5.2 and 5.3 are now
running five flat or 4.9. There just aren’t
any slow players in the game any more.”
Despite gains made by players at other
positions, defensive backs are generally
regarded as the best athletes. They get
that distinction because coaches find
them able to play basketball and look like
basketball players. Or able to pick up a
tennis racket and play a decent game
without special training. Or grab a set of
golf clubs for the first time and not look
like a duffer.
"Defensive backs rate so high because
so mqdh is demanded of them,” says a
coach. “They have to go one-on-one with
the wide receivers, the other group that
has to rate very high as top athletes.
"Defensive backs have to be able to run
backwards and from side to side almost as
fast as they run forward.
"Defensive backs must have great hand
and eye coordination. A defensive back
has to be smart.
"Offensive players initiate the action on
the field, but defensive players have to re­
act to it. They must have not only the
speed to cover the fastest people on the

HOME REMEDY

e is the glamour boy of the backfield. He racks up the yardage,
hogs the headlines and monopo­
lizes the post-season honors.
If you want to be a football hero, pick up
a pigskin and run with it. But don’t do it
from just anywhere in the backfield —
take a few steps back, so that you ’re deep,
deep behind the line of scrimmage. Then
you can call yourself a tailback and you
just may be ticketed for glory.
Since 1965, the first year a dictionarydefinition tailback won a Heisman Tro­
phy, nine others have followed in Mike
Garrett’s footsteps. Traditional running
backs, operating out of Wishbone or Veer
formations, won the Heisman only three
times during that span.
“I consider myself the prototype,” said
Garrett, who parlayed his football notori­
ety into a political career in San Diego,
Calif. 'When I went to USC, I knew John
McKay used an I-formation and I thought
it was a peculiar looking offense. But I just
wanted to play football, so I didn’t care. ”
When Garrett entered college, a run­
ning back usually carried the ball 10 or 12
times a game. Yet his number was called
more than twice that much, which set a
precedent.
"The fear, at the time, was that a single
player couldn’t take that kind of beating,”
Garrett said. "I proved that he could, and
from then on, coaches weren’t afraid to
use their best running back on every
play.”
Garrett had a unique combination of
qualities—specifically speed and deter­
mination—that enabled him to establish
the tailback position. His most successful
successors have those same attributes.
“Any great tailback must have a natural
instinct to feel seams in a defense,” said a
West Coast coach. "But that’s assuming
he’s fast enough and strong enough to
take advantage. The great one anticipates
those openings and then attacks them
with his ability.
"He has to be able to cut back, to adjust
on the run. If he runs to daylight, then

he's a tailback.”
"What we look for,” said a Southwest­
ern Conference coach, "is a player who
puts out that extra effort, and has the
moves and speed to make people miss
him.”
As one famous eastern coach said,
"Sheer speed is not the only answer. The
tailback has to have the ability to make
the linebacker miss him. He has to have
the ability to change directions, to get
what I call ‘the hidden yards.’
"Sure, there are certain parameters of
speed, size and balance. He has to be dura­
ble, physically tough. Any time we recruit
a guy with a lot of natural athletic ability,
we’ll give him the ball, just to make sure
we’re not passing up a natural runner.”
But the coaches agreed—and Garrett
insisted—that it is an intangible "some­
thing extra” that makes a great tailback.
"All too often, we talk about quickness,
size and strength,” Garrett said. “The rea­
son an individual is successful is because
he wants to succeed—at all costs. The
trait I see that bonds ail the great tailbacks
is a strong personality and a will to win.
And that, of course, is true of anyone suc­
cessful in any field.”
A tailback has to have a special type of
personality. He has to love the challenge
of the position. He is the glory guy on the
team, and some youngsters handle that
better than others.
As one former college tailback said,
"The adulation is easy to accept, because
that’s what every player wants. But it’s
difficult to handle—unless you really
know who you are before all the publicity
hits you.”
Great tailbacks retain the ability to con­
centrate, even though they are in the
limelight. They feel they are the best—
and still want to improve every season.
For example, one exemplary tailback,
known for his strength, relentlessly con­
tinued to lift weights.
A young man’s personality is a big
factor in his success.
"It’s an ingredient you have to work on,”
a coach said. "It’s part of the overall struc­
ture of the team.”
One important aspect of personality is
the tailback’s effect on the linemen who
block for him. He has a direct influence
on the people in front of him. If they can
give him blocking, they like to know he
can do it on his own. If he’s encouraging
them, he’ll receive better individual
blocking. He has to have a great rapport
with those people.
A former tailback said he could inspire
his linemen by his consistent yardage
gains—"leadership by performance,” he
called it.
"The guys up front like to get it over
with in a hurry, so they appreciate a guy
56t

who can get the job done. If he appre­
ciates them and lets them know it, you can
see the evidence.”
The evidence, of course, is statistical.
The tailback is glamorous because he han­
dles the ball so much. He gets the ball
most of the time, gets the numbers, and
gets the glory.
But he also get^ the bumps and bruises.
As Garrett pdin|ed out, coaches used to
think it was more abuse than one body
could take.
"A tailback must have the ability to re­
cover quickly and play in pain,” said one
head coach, who estimates his tailback
handles the ball between 30 and 40 times
a game. "He has to be able to cope with
that punishment. Because he gets the ball
more, teams zero in on him.”
But for most tailbacks, the glory far out­
weighs the beating. For one thing, a natu­
rally competitive person wants the ball all
the time and doesnt think about the ulti­
mate tackle. "It’s like a ballerina,” said a
former tailback. "She has to get the bun­
ions if she wants to create the beauty.”
More and more teams are employing
the I-formation. In some cases, they want
to take advantage of an exceptional run­
ning back in the program—why divide
ball-carrying duties between him and
another, less accomplished runner in the

backfield when he can be in on virtually
every play? Other coaches simply believe
that the I is a more versatile formation,
one that enhances the passing game with­
out detractihg from the running game.
“The \yishbone doesn’t capitalize on
one outstanding back,” said one coach.
"The I offers a more balanced running at­
tack, and also is a good passing formation.
"There are more and more good kids
playing football, so it’s not so hard to find
a tailback. Every year, there are 30-40
great running backs, even if only four or
five are truly unusual.”
College coaches first look for prospec­
tive tailbacks among the pool of high
school running backs. But the best high
school athlete often plays quarterback;
he too, can be a candidate for the tailback
job. Heisman Trophy winners John Cappelletti and Marcus Allen both were
signal-callers before they went to college.
"More and more great high school run­
ning backs are demanding an I-formation,” said one college coach. "A team that
has featured the tailback for several years
sometimes has a better chance of recruit­
ing a great high school back.”
Obviously the high school stars know
what’s good for-them. If they want their
statistics to glimmer, they want to be
tailbacks.

It’s Still Winning Football Games
by Al Browning

t was on the first Saturday in Novem­
ber of 1869, the sixth day of the
month, that 50 players, 25 from
Princeton and 25 from Rutgers, competed
in the first college football game.
Rutgers won six goals to four, but only
after a professor from Rutgers witnessed

chastised the combatants: "You men will

game played in New Brunswick, N.J.,
which is a far cry from the 100,000-plus
crowds that annually pack huge stadiums
today.
Also, of course, playing rules have
changed drastically, along with scoring
procedures, and, as everybody knows,
the game has taken on a strikingly differ­
ent appearance. It was a combination of
rugby and soccer that delighted fans in
the first game, which featured almost

continuous motion. Now, the best of those
two sports are combined with Americanmade innovations to produce one of the
most exciting games in the world.
Gone are most of the facets of play used
by Rutgers and Princeton in their first
football game.
But the lateral pass remains, as football

maneuvers to win a game on a midnighthour kickoff return. Granted, that play
was a little wild, but it is interesting to
note that the lateral pass, known as the
"backwards pass" in NCAA rulebooks,
was an offensive ploy in the first college
game, and that five lateral passes pro­
vided us with perhaps the strangest con­
clusion to a college football game in mod­
ern history.
In fact, when Rutgers and Princeton
played the first game, there was no other
way for teammates to exchange pos­
session of the football except through the
use of a lateral pass. Amazingly, that
makes the lateral pass and the fair catch
the only two facets of play in the first
game that are still used in football today.
"The backwards pass (lateral pass) has
been used since they blew up the first
football,” said Coacb Dave Nelson of the
University of Delaware, who since 1961
has served as secretary and editor of The
NCAA Football Rulebook. "The backwards
pass is as old as the game, even older if
you consider the start of football to have
taken place in 1906, when the forward
pass was legalized. That is when the third
dimension was added to the game, joining
running and kicking.
"It is interesting to note that there were
61 rules written in the first rulebook for
football, and tbe backwards pass was in­
cluded. It is, in fact, one of only seven
original rules still in the book. That first
rulebook was written in 1876, when our
first rules committee was formed. That
tells you know long the backwards pass
has been in use.”
The lateral pass has had a distinguished
history in football. It was at first basic,
then ultra-successful, then forgotten,
then reborn, and now it is complex; a sci­
entific offensive weapon that takes both
skillful ball-handling and timing expertise
to work properly.
"I recall reading a story once about how
impressed (Coach) Walter Camp was
when watching an Australian rugby team
play on the West Coast,” said Nelson.
"That team destroyed an American team
by making use of tbe backwards pass.
Coach Camp was impressed by scores
like 55-0, so he started thinking about
making better use of tbe backwards pass
in football.
"When I played at Michigan in the
1930s, Minnesota was particularly adept
when it came to backwards passes. I can
recall Minnesota making several on one
play, two or three beyond the line of
scrimmage.
"Even today, with offensive schemes as
complex as they are, I doubt coaches
really make good use of backwards
passes. A lot can be done in that area.”
A lot has already been done.. . .

Difficult to defend: the about-to-be-tackled
player keeps the play alive with the lateral.

Writing in the Saturday Evening Post in
September of 1926, Coach Amos Alonzo
Stagg related action from the YalePrinceton game in 1876; "Walter Camp, a
freshman, got the ball out of the scrum­
mage early in the first half and made a
long run. Just as he was tackled, he
passed the ball to O.D. Thompson, who
continued on for the first touchdown by
Yale. Princeton protested that the pass
had been forward and therefore illegal.
The referee tossed a coin to decide, and
Yale won the toss and the touchdown was
allowed.”
In 1930, Coach Jimmie Knox of Harvard
said this about the lateral pass; "The lat­
eral pass as a play has been in football al­
most from the beginning. But it was in a
distinctly haphazard form with the ex­
ception of definite plays, which were
used as substitutes for old wedge plays at
the beginning of the game. One of the
early instances in which the play was
used was in the Harvard-Yale game in
1894, when Cameron Forbes, who was
then head coach of the freshmen, taught
the Harvard youngsters a definite lateral.
When this play was used against Yale, it
gained 57 yards and completely fooled
Yale ends and backs, the runner being
caught from behind at the Yale 15-yard
line . . .

"In 1914, Frank Hinkey came to Yale as
coach after seeing a great many Canadian
rugby games. He built his attack around
lateral passes. He used a formation in
which one man stood fairly close behind
center and was a definite threat for
straight-ahead runs. Another man far­
ther out and farther to the rear could get
the ball on a lateral pass, and he in turn
was a threat as a runner or as a forward
passer. Still farther out and farther to the
rear was another back, and his threats
were also threefold.. . .
"The start of the 1886 HarvardPrinceton game reads like a rugger
match: Brooks,dribbles and lateral passes
to Sears. As the latter is tackled by Cowan,
Sears flips the ball sideways to Porter,
who makes 20 yards before being thrown
by Irvine.’ Later, ‘Fletcher shoots a long
side pass to Burgess, who makes 30yards.’
"Though Notre Dame outrushed Yale by
a wide margin in 1914, the Elis won 28-0
on long gainer plays developing out of
flank maneuvers.”
Hinkey was so dedicated to an offense
heavy in lateral passes that he imported
Canadian rugby experts to tutor his
backs. The lyric rhythm and flowing con­
tinuity they taught worked wonders.
In 1898, Stagg devised a lateral pass in
which an end carried the football after
receiving it from the quarterback. The
end ran across behind his line and tossed
the football to one of his halfbacks, who
had circled back. Thus, a reverse run was
on the books.
In 1894, Stagg had used a lateral pass on
a kickoff, the receiver throwing the foot­
ball to an end or halfback, in baseball
fashion. /
In 1916, Illinois used a lateral pass
downfield after a short pass over the
middle of the line.
Coach Andy Kerr of Colgate was a wiz­
ard when it came to lateral passes. Said
Harvard Coach Lloyd Jordan: "I have
never seen a man who could take an idea
and develop it to the extent Kerr could.”
In 1934, Colgate defeated Tulane 20-6.
On a punt, four Colgate players handled

What do we have in football now? Actu­

The “quick pitch” is still used effectively
by teams, provided a speedy running
back is in stock, but it has become the
most basic of a multitude of lateral passes
used today.
The Wishbone offense, with its triple
option philosophy, was instrumental in
making the lateral pass a viable weapon
on a par with tbe long forward pass and
tbe bomb. And, while it is becoming out­
dated, it also bas the distinction of forcing
statisticians to rethink their trade. Quite

often in the Wishbone, the quarterback
will run around end and move upfield
with a trailing running back. When a de­
fensive player converges, the quarter­
back makes a lateral pass to the trailing
running back, who moves further up­
field. Hence, rushing yardage must be
given to two players.
Pity those statisticians who had to de­
termine who ran for what yardage on
that five-lateral pass kickoff return last
season on the West Coast.
Do you recall the "flea-flicker” pass?
That, too, is not in use as much these days
as it was in the 1960s and the early 1970s.
But it remair > a deadly weapon when the
proper surprise element is used. On that
play, the quarterback makes a forward
pass to a receiver, who in turn makes a
lateral pass to a teammate running be­
hind him, ala the Illinois play from 1910.
The "flea-flicker” pass first earned fame
in 1965 on national television. A forward
pass was made to the tight end, who in
turn made the lateral pass to a running
back. After that 18-17 upset, the “fleaflicker” became known in the Deep South
as "the Georgia play.”
Football is not rugby, only the result of

that sport, but the mass of lateral passes
used today make it appear similar to that
style of the game at times. There are times
when lateral passes are even made to
husky, surprised linemen, at which time a
scrum in forward (slow) motion develops.
For the most part, however, zip is associ­
ated with lateral passes—the quarter­
back to a running back, the quarterback
to a split end (a pitching and catching vari­
ation to the Statue of Liberty play), and
the quarterback to a running back, who
returns the football to the quarterback,
usually by way of a handoff, who passes it
forward to a receiver running downfield.
Fans go nuts when a play like the latter is a
success and absolutely crazy when the
pass receiver makes a lateral pass to an­
other teammate trailing him.
How valuable is the lateral pass to an
offense? To a man, several coaches say it
has both a basic value and a surprise
value. Everybody uses a pitchout from
time to time, but not everybody uses
three pitchouts on one play.
"Lateral passing causes defenses a lot of
headaches, not to speak of hours of prep­
aration,” said a respected defensive coor­
dinator from a southern school. "If an op­

posing team is adept at running the option
play, well, the headaches are more
severe. You can never tell who the next
pitch might be going to.
"The lateral pass forces you to use all
kinds of defenders against it. Ends obvi­
ously have to be concerned with it, as well
as linebackers. What a lot of people fail to
realize is that defensive halfbacks and
safeties must be conscious of it, too. I re­
ally hate to face an option quarterback,
who can pass on the run. That can drive
defensive halfbacks and safeties up a
wall, particularly if you try to play manto-man pass defense. When that happens,
a halfback or safety must run with the re­
ceiver assigned to him. What happens if
the quarterback pitches the ball to a
trailing back, instead of passing it?
"When you play a team prone to make a
lot of lateral passes—art option team —
you have to teach the defenders to play a
cat-and-mouse game. They have to give
the appearance of going in one direction,
when they really have intentions of going
in another direction. Sometimes, the de­
fense has to fool the offense to keep it
from fooling the defense with a lateral
pass.”

tention focused on the run. But how often
you see it really depends on who’s run­
ning the offense.
There are two ways the two tight end
offense can be used. One is with two run­
ning backs and a flanker (the second tight
end taking the place of the other re­
ceiver); the other is with one running
back and two wide receivers (the second
tight end taking the place of the other
back).
By keeping the backfield intact, a team
maintains its ability to mask its intentions
with misdirection plays. On the other
hand, it loses a deep threat, so most of its
passing is of the ball-control varietydelays, short hooks, short crossing pat­
terns. Not that that makes life any easier
for the defense.
With two tight ends and two wide re­
ceivers, a team has the ability to attack the
entire field with its passing game and the
defense is forced into sideline-to-sideline
coverage.
"You can take away wide receivers with
a double-zone coverage,” one coach said.
"But it’s hard to double-cover backs and
it’s almost impossible to double-cover two
tight ends.”
"You can play everybody man-to-man
across the board and bring both safeties
closer to the line,” another coach said.
"But when you do that, you’re leaving the
middle of the field open to the wide re­
ceivers.”
The most important man in the two
tight end offense with one running back
is the running back. He must be part juke­
box, part cheetah. The offensive load sits
on his shoulders, and should it fall off, the
formation’s punch becomes a half­
hearted pinch.
Some coaches believe it is the ease with
which contemporary defenses can make
wide receivers seem invisible that led to
the origin of the two tight end offense.
Others feel it is a spinoff of formations in
which a running back is positioned near
or on the line of scrimmage. Somebody
had the brilliance to realize that a tight
end—with his blocking and receiving
skills—would be more effective in that
role.
In any event, the trend has had a major
influence on recruiting. Coaches now
find themselves searching for two and
even three quality tight ends, when, real­
istically, they know they ’ll be lucky if they
can land just one.
"That’s one of the toughest positions to
recruit,” one coach noted. An exceptional
tight end has to be able to block, run pass
routes, catch passes ... everything. He
has to be a very versatile guy, and he just

can go from an unbalanced line to a bal­

one direction, then turn around and go
back the other way.”
That kind of motion may cause a de­

any appreciable yardage is gained, curse.
‘Everything in defense is specialized
these days,” one coach said. "You’ve got
the Nickel, the Dime. Depending on the

But there is reason to believe coaches

point where defenses can be just as dis­

coach explained. "That’s what it boils
down to.

After the game,
bring home a dozen.

Why are a lot of college men and women
becoming buddies in Army ROTC?
Probably because Army ROTC is full of
the kind of people other people go out of their
way to meet.
ROTC students tend to be high achievers
who are interested in more than their studies.
They’re popular students with a serious side,
but who like to have a good time, too.

In other words, when people join Army
ROTC they often meet people a lot like them­
selves.
For more information, contact your Professor
of Military Science.
