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 University of
Pennsylvania. Founded as a private academy in 1857,
Edinboro University has continu^ 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
100 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.

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-professional offerings such as law, dentistry, medicine,
pharmacy and veterinary science. Numerous student intern­
ships 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 intellectual 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.

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
400,000 volume Baron-Fomess Library, a modem seven-story
structure which serves as a focal point for the spacious cam­
pus. Nearly 6,500 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.

Although the costs for attending Edinboro rank among
the lowest in the Commonwealth, over $12,000,000 in finan­
cial aid is available annually to eligible students.

ERIE,P»y^

The University now offers more than 100 undergraduate,
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 makes contributions in the fields of education.

Students are admitted to the University in September or
January and are considered for admission on the basis of their
general scholarship, nature of secondary program, and SAT or
ACT scores.

SCOTS HAVE "HIT MAN" IN MIKE WILLIS
three passes broken up, and one interception. He was simply
all over the field. During his first year in '86, Willis called the
defensive coverages in the secondary, a great responsibility
for a first-year player.
"Sometimes you have to make a sight-adjustment
when the offense goes into a different formation, so I have to
change the coverage to better suit our defense," Willis com­
ments.
Last year, in '87, Willis returned for what looked like
a banner year for the free safety. Through three games last
year, the Scots were 2-1 and Willis had already been credited
with nearly 40 tackles. In game four, at Slippery Rock, the
Scots not only suffered a heart-breaking 36-35 loss, but they
also lost Willis for the year. "The knee again," Willis said. "1
didn't need surgery, but I was lost for the year. It was pretty
tough to take."
How valuable? With Willis in the lineup for the Scots
last season, the team gave up just 10 points per game. Without
him 31.6 ppg. He may not have been the solo reason for the
defensive decline, but it sure hurt to lose a leader like Willis.
In '88, the "leader" role is back with Willis. "I don't
really feel any added pressure," he states. "I am not the type to
lead by voice, but instead by my actions. If I go out and play
hard in practice and in games, the younger players will see the
results.
"As a team, we want to forget about last year, so it is
not discussed. Our coaching staff and players know that we
have a winning program, and we all plan on doing something
about it," Willis said. "This is a new beginning for our ball
club, and we are all looking forward to it There is a challenge
ahead for this football team, and we are ready to meet that
challenge."
As a person, it is a pleasure to meet Mike Willis, but
as an opponent, it is an entirely different story. Listen closely,
the "hit man" will be heard from all year long.

Mike Willis

As an opposing back or wide receiver, you may not
see Mike Willis coming, but sometimes you hear him.
He has the perfect disposition for a free safety . . .
very aggressive. Mike Willis does not understand half speed
or a "thud" scrimmage in practice. He goes all day, the same
way, all out, one speed.
"I am a firm believer in the old saying 'you play like
you practice'," Willis said. "I know that everytime I go out on
the field, I have to play hard to keep my position. There is
nothing handed to you here at Edinboro, you have to work as
an athlete to earn your position," he added. "The coaching
staff told us, you have to practice hard to prove that you can
play, and this is OK with me."
Willis, the Fighting Scots' free safety, is just a junior
and will be strong All-American candidate before he leaves
the 'Boro. To some, he may already be at that level now. "I
have only seen him on film during spring ball last year and
now during camp, and he may just be the finest defensive
back that I have ever seen," first-year head coach Tom Hollman said. "He has a great sense for the football and is a true
leader on the field. He hits like a linebacker and has excellent
coverage sense for a safety."
Willis came to Edinboro in 1985 from Orlando Edgewater High School in Maitland, Florida. What brought such a
great athlete so many miles to play football? "Edinboro's repu­
tation," said Willis. "There were a couple of players from my
hometown area who were very successful at Edinboro, and
that's where I want to play. I have no regrets about travelling
this far to go to school - I'm getting a good education and
playing for a good team."
How valuable is Mike Willis to the Fighting Scot
football program? The facts do not lie.
After a knee injury kept him out of action for the
entire '85 season, Willis was named first team Pennsylvania
Conference Western Division in '86 in his initial season with
the squad. The Plaid was 7-3, 5-1 in the PC West, and Willis
was #2 on the squad in tackles with 77. He recorded 38 solo
stops, including one behind the line of scrimmage. He was
also credited with one fumble recovery, one fumble cause.

ATHLETIC DIRECTOR JIM McDONALD
the Birffalo Bills annual rookie scrimmage, which has been a
yearly mid-summer highlight.
The personable athletic director also introduced
Edinboro's Hall of Fame program which has evolved into an
annual year-ending event to honor present and past athletes.
McDonald has been at Edinboro since 1962 and for 12
years served as the Fighting Scot basketball coach (19621975) and never experienced a losing season while his teams
compiled an impressive 181 wins against only 89 losses.
During that span, his cagers won four Western Division
Pennsylvania Conference crowns, the PC state championship
and two District 18 titles that netted trips to the NAIA
National Tournament. His teams set 27 University records and
made 19 post-season appearances while four of his players
were named All-Americans.
Prior to accepting his position at Edinboro, McDonald
served as assistant basketball coach in Erie, Pa. He is a 1956
graduate of Bridgeport High School in his home town of
Bridgeport, West Virginia.
In 1960 he received a degree in chemistry and physical
education from West Virginia Wesleyan College and he also
holds a master's degree in health from the University of
Buffalo.

Jim McDonald
Edinboro University's athletic program was placed under
the talented and aggressive leadership of Jim McDonald in
July of 1981. Increased emphasis on fund raising to provide a
sound scholarship foundation has become his top priority
while numerous changes and innovations have also keyed the
Scots' athletic program under his direction.

As an undergraduate, he set nine school records at
Wesleyan and was twice voted both AP and UPI basketball
All-American. In 1960, he was the second leading scorer in
the United States, averaging slightly over 33 points a game,
and led his team to the national basketball tournament in
Kansas City, Missouri. He was named to the NAlA's AllTournament Team in 1959 and 1960.

Through his efforts more than 2.6 million dollars has
been raised during the past five years. The funds generated by
the energetic athletic director's efforts will be used to assist
Edinboro's men and women athletes who compete in the Scots
fifteen intercollegiate sports.

In 1966, McDonald was selected Area Eight Coach of the
Year by the eastern seaboard coaches and that same year was
honored as one of the top ten finalists in the Coach of the Year
national poll. McDonald's honors also include selection to the
West Virginia All-Time College Basketball Team and mem­
bership in the West Virginia Sports Hall of Fame. He served
four years on the NAIA's All-American selection committee
and was chosen by the NAIA to coach an All-American team
of NBA-bound cagers who won the Gold Medal in Israel's
Hapoel Games.

"EUP has outstanding coaches
and facilities. With these ingredients,
there is no reason we could not be
competitive in the PSAC and Division

In addition to his classroom and basketball coaching
duties, McDonald was Edinboro's golf coach for 17 years dur­
ing which his teams won over 40 tournaments and finished as
high as third place at the NCAA Division II National
Tournament.

ll."
In addition to maintaining Edinboro's respected winning
tradition in intercollegiate athletics, the former health and
physical education professor has vastly expanded the
University's summer activities.

As a resident of Edinboro, McDonald has a record of
extensive community involvement. He was Little League
Baseball director for four years and also held a four-year post
as a member of the General McLane School Board. He and
his wife, Mary Lou, have three sons - Mark, Mike and
Matthew.

Forty-four camps were sponsored by the Fighting Scots
Booster Club this past summer on the University's campus.

A LOOK AT THE 1988 SEASON
ohe score, while also caught 14 passes for 140 more and two
touchdowns.
The Plaid will also have great skill at the wide out posi­
tions. Seniors John Toomer and Cleveland Pratt return for
their final season. Toomer averaged 16.5 yards per catch last
season with three touchdowns, while Pratt caught 20 passes
for 245 yards and one score. Pratt, the PSAC champion in the
100 meter dash, will also return kickoffs for the squad. In '87,
Pratt was the fifth in the country in kickoff returns, averaging
26.9 ypr on 26 returns, including a 100-yard score againsi
Lock Haven.

The scenario is a familiar one for the Edinboro University
football team approaching the 1988 season. A new coach, new
offensive and defensive systems, and a squad dominated by
underclassmen will make a run at the Western Division title of
the rugged Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference.
A stiff challenge is ahead for first-year head coach Tom
Hollman and his Fighting Scot squad, but do not count them
out A host of skill people return on die offensive side of the
ball and the defense has added key personnel to try and fill the
holes.
"I understood the challenge when I took the head coach­
ing position." Hollman said. "This is an institution that has a
winning tradition in all sports and football has been very suc­
cessful. As for the *88 season, I feel that we had an excellent
spring session with a fine group of athletes and young men.
We accomplished what we had to, to prepare us for the fall
schedule.
"We play a strong non-conference schedule that should
prepare us well for the league play," Hollman added. "The
coaching staff, players and I, are well aware of what lies
ahead for Edinboro football. Traditionally this program has
been a winner and that is where we plan on keeping it."
The 1988 schedule is solid for the Scots, with early tests
coming from NCAA Division I-AA opponent Liberty
University (VA) in the home opener September 3, followed by
a visit from Saginaw Valley State University (MI) on
September 10 for Parents' Day.
The Scots will then travel to New Haven (CT) before
opening conference play against PSAC champ lUP in Indiana
on the 24th. Kutztown will then follow to conclude their non­
league play, before the Plaid plays five consecutive confer­
ence games to conclude their 10-game slate. Clarion
(homecoming), at Lock Haven, Shippensburg, at California
and home against Slippery Rock dot the '88 schedule.

OFFENSIVE LINE

The Plaid will have to make improvement here if they ar<
going to contend for the title. The Scots ran for just 123.^
yards per game last season, a total much lower than norma
for the run-oriented squad. All-conference selection Marl
Courtney will return at tackle to anchor the front, as will cen
ter Joe Brooks, guard Dean Gallagher and tackle Ron Hainse)
A year of playing together will likely help this group
Tightend Brian Ferguson (11 catches for 164 yards, 1 TD) wi:
also return up front. Ferguson and Randy Mcllwain will hoi

Sophomore Darren Weber, from nearby Erie, PA, wil

against lUP is a school-record and is tied for second on till

The Scots will have to find the personnel up front to cofl
tain the running game. Last season the Plaid surrendered tcH
many yards on the ground to contend. Second team A11-PSaH
selection Mark Jozefov will return at tackle to anchor the intH
rior. Jozefov recorded 69 tackles last season as a freshman aiH
led the squad in tackles for loss with nine. Defensive end bH

DE Kurt Schmidhamer, who played in just seven gamH
last year as a frosh, could be the Scots' force up front this s^|
son. He recorded 33 stops and recovered a fumble in his lim^|

The Scots will be solid at quarterback with the constant
development of junior signal-caller Jim Ross and sophomore
Hal Gdupi. Ross broke school records in attempts and yards
passing, while Galupi gained valuable experience down the
stretch of the '87 season and will likely push Ross for the top
spot.
Ross connected on 147-of-276 passes last season for
1,903 yards and 12 touchdowns. He threw for over 173 yards
per game and tossed 13 interceptions in the Scots 11-game
schedule. Galupi played in just two games, completing over
50% of his passes for 145 yards and one score.
At runningback, the Scots could be considered one of the
best in the league. First-team All-PSAC back Elbert Cole
returns for his junior year, and should be better than ever. Cole
rushed for 635 yards on 140 attempts last season, with eight
touchdowns and a 4.5 yard per-carry mark. He was also the
teams' leading pass receiver, grabbing 24 receptions for 251
yards and a score. The Plaid will obviously rely on Cole a
great deal in '88.
Looking to take some of the heat off of Cole will be
speedster Chris Conway. The Oil City, PA, sprinter is a gamebreaker, evidence of his totals in limited action last year. In
just nine games, behind Cole and now-graduated Floyd
Faulkner, Conway rushed for 185 yards on 45 attempts and

of safety Mike Willis, when he went down with injury against
Slippery Rock. The Scot defense gave up an average of just
ten points per game with Willis in the lineup last season, as

season, Willis was tabbed first-team All-PSAC in '86.

had the nation's leading
Earle Bruce, who
punter, Tom Tupa, at Ohio State last season. "With Tom,
we out-punted teams by at least seven to 10 yards every game,
sometimes more. He did it all. If we needed to kick out of our
end zone, he'd get a good one. If we were inside the 50, he
could put it out in the comer, so we'd have good field position
when we got the ball back."
"I think the kicking game is 30 to 33 percent of the total
game," said University of Mississippi coach Billy Brewer. "It's
what I call hidden yardage. It can mean the difference in three to
four games a year.' I've coached at three schools in three con­
ferences, Southeast Louisiana and Louisiana Tech as well as
here, and I've had conference-leading punters at each school.
That's how much importance I put on the punting game."
Ole Miss has had two of the nation's best in recent
years—Bill Smith, 1983-86, and Jim Miller, 1976-79.
"In 1984, when we had Bill Smith, we put all our best
athletes on defense and relied on our defense and kicking
game to win games," said Brewer. "I figured that if we
could get our offense the ball at around the 50, we had a
pretty good chance of getting at least three points on the
board.
"I remember one game in particular, against Southern
Mississippi. Bill was kicking out of the end zone one time and
kicked it 92 yards. His next punt was for 77. It was just unbe­
lievable. We still lost the game, 13-7, but if it hadn't been for his
kicking, I think it would have been something around 38-7."
Last season emphasized the importance of the kicking game for

Brewer, in a negative way: His punter, Charles Childers,
broke his ankle playing softball in the summer and punted
only half a season. "He had lost a lot of leg strength," said
Brewer, "and I think we lost some games because our kicking
game wasn't strong."
Steve Mariucci, an assistant who handles the kicking game
for the California Golden Bears, points out another reason the
punt is so important: "We punted 72 times last season, which
is more than we ran any other specific play, whether it was
a pass or run.
"We have a saying: 'Make them go 90 yards.' If you
look at the national statistics, fewer than 10 percent of
the touchdowns come on drives that start inside the 10.
Of course, it doesn't always work; USC went 98 yards
for a touchdown after Scott Tabor hit an 89-yard punt in
our game last fall. But on the average, you're way ahead
if your punter can put the ball down inside the 10."
How do you coach punters?
"Punters are usually more disciplined than other
players," said Mariucci, "because they have to work so
much on their own. I'll work with our punter before and
after practice, but unless we're working specifically on
punts and punt returns, I don't work much with him during
the practice itself.
"I believe in having a fresh punter all year, so we restrict
the amount of actual kicking he does in practice. So, ^
punter will practice a lot of things—like dropping the ball or
taking the snap from center—without actually kicking the
ball. He'll work on stretching exercises and running. We might
have him work on our pool drills, running in the pool. That's
both conditioning and stretching, and it isn't a strain on the leg.
"When he kicks, there are three basic types of punts he
V practices. The first, which is used probably about 50 percent
of the time, is the straight punt with a high hang time, to give
our punt-coverage people time to get downfield. The second is
the 'sky kick,' which we use inside the 50, kicking it as high as
possible and putting it down around the 10. The third is the twostep kick out of the end zone, because you often have less space
available on that kick."

It was much easier for Bruce coaching
Tupa—or so he says.
"When Tom came to us," said Bruce,
"he was already an accomplished punter.
Mostly, I just tried not to screw him up.
Once in a while he'd get in a minor slump.
He'd be coming across the ball instead of
just kicking straight away. But that was
easy to correct."
But, said Bruce, there are two specifics,
no matter who the punter is.
"The drop is probably the most impor­
tant thing in punting. If you get a good
drop and good explosion with your leg,
you're going to have a good punt. And
timing is vital. If you get the kick off in
two seconds, you're not going to have it
blocked. If you get out to 2.3 seconds,
well, you're going to get some blocks."
What kind of player do coaches look for
in a punter?
"We look for a bigger guy, 6-2 or big­
ger," said Mariucci. "He's a bigger target
for the snap from center, and he has a
longer leg, which usually means more
potential for distance.
"We're looking for an athlete. He has to
be able to catch the ball, for one thing, and
react well if it's a bad snap, high, low or to
the side. We like to have the ability to run
a fake punt, or have the threat of it at other
times. Tabor, being a former quarterback
[high school], was perfect in that role.
"We're looking for a guy who can han­
dle pressure well. He has to be able to kick
effectively after receiving a bad snap, and
he has to be able to handle punting out of
the end zone, where there's usually less
room and the punter is under pressure to
really get the ball out of there."
"The thing I look for is consistency,"
said Brewer. "If your punter is kicking 40
yards every time, with no return, you can
live with that. Of course, you like to have
him kicking even farther—but with con­
sistency. You want a two-step kicker, if
possible. A lot depends on the snapper.
You want him to get the ball back there in
1.7 seconds, and then, if your punter can
hang it up for between 4.2 and 5.5 sec­
onds, you're in business."
To Bruce it was, again, simpler: His
model is Tupa.
"We got a tip on him early from some
alums who watched him in high school,"
said Bruce. "He was an option quarterback
on a team that won the state champi­
onship, and the championship game was
played in our stadium, so we had a good
chance to take a look at him. Once I saw
him, I knew I had to have him.
"He's a great athlete. In high school, he
was a good baseball and basketball player
as well as a good football player. He was a
good passer, and he could run a little. If
you needed him to play quarterback, he

could do that, too. He had four good years
for us, not just one. He was great as a
freshman, fell off just a little in his sopho­
more and junior years, and then came back
to have a great senior year."
To hear Bruce talk, Tom Tupa should
have worn a big S on his uniform, instead
of Ohio State. "For most punters," he said,
"wind can be a problem because it holds
the ball up. But Tupa was so strong, he
could punt right through the wind."
The trend has been to split the kicking
duties, having separate punters and placekickers.
"We prefer to split punting and placekicking, because we think a punter can do
better if he spends all his practice time on
his specialty," said Mariucci. "It could be
the difference between a punter averaging
41 yards or 43."
Brewer had an interesting thought on
that subject. "Bill [Smith] was both the
punter and placekicker," he said. "I think
that hurt him, but doing both may even
help a kicker who's a soccer-style kicker.
If your kicker is a conventional kicker, toe
down, ankle locked in place, he's doing
something totally different from punting.
But the soccer style, kicking the ball on
the instep, helps improve leg speed."
Years ago, punters worked on what was
called "coffin corner" kicking, trying to
put the ball out inside the 10. You see
much less of that these days, as punters
often try sky kicks, putting the ball down
inside the 10, but in the playing field.
"We also practice some corner kick­
ing," said Mariucci, "but we don't usually
use that in a game. We think we can get
better results with the sky kick. With that
kick, you have the possibility of the
returner fair catching at the 10, which
means we win the battle. You have the
possibility of a fumble, which we could
recover, which means we win the battle.
If the returner lets it bounce, we have a

chance to down it inside the five, so we
win the battle. It's a no-lose situation for
us. A corner kick eliminates the chance
of a fumble, and it's also possible that the
punter could hit it wrong and kick it out
at the 25.
"Of course, you have to have a punter
who can kick it that way and is willing to
give up yardage. A lot of guys just kick
their regular way and the ball goes into the
end zone. They get yardage, but it's inflat­
ed and it doesn't help their team. Scott
[Tabor] was really good about giving up
yardage. In two years he had 38 kicks
inside the 20, and 22 last year."
"I like both the pooch kick [sky kick] and
the comer kick," said Bmce. "It depends on
your kicker. Tupa liked to kick it out inside
the 10, and he could do that. But we prac­
ticed the pooch kick a lot, too."
Recmiting a punter can be tricky.
"When you're recruiting, you look at
the stats, but only as a beginning," said
Mariucci. "High school stats, especially,
can be very deceiving because high
school players often don't field punts, so
you'll get a roll that doesn't tell you how
far the punter actually kicked it. You get
high school punters with 47- to 48-yard
averages. Well, even the pros don't kick
that far.
"So, we chart every punt of a kicker
we're recruiting, where it landed. If possi­
ble, we scout the games of a punter, but if
we can't do that, we use film and video."
"I try to scout every kicker personally,"
said Brewer. "With the recruiting restric­
tions we have, you can't do it in games
unless a team gets into the playoffs, so
we take videos. But after that, I still like
to see the kid in practice, because the
video might be dark, or you might not be
able to judge hang time."
All of which suggests that the punting
game is just too important to leave to
chance. □

in basketball, baseball and track. After his
freshman year at Wisconsin, Below served
in the Army in World War I. He was active
in business, civic and alumni affairs in
Chicago for many years prior to his death
in 1984 at the age of 86. Below will be in­
ducted into the Hall of Fame in a special
ceremony this fall on the Badger campus.
You could say that Bob Chappuis did it
all for Michigan. He led the Big Ten in
rushing in 1946, captured the passing
crown in 1947 and led the league in total
offense for both seasons. He was voted
the Rose Bowl MVP in a 49-0 whitewash
of use. Chappuis began his career at
Michigan in 1942 before entering the
Army Air Corps in World War II. After a
professional career with the Brooklyn
Dodgers and Chicago Hornets, Chappuis
worked at the Central Soya Company for
25 years, serving as vice president for the
last 13. He now heads his own manage­
ment consulting firm in Ft. Wayne, Ind.
During Darrell Lester's three-year ca­
reer at TCU, the Homed Frogs went 29-7-1.
The bruising 6-4, 220-pound center was
TCU's first two-time All-America. After
graduating in 1936, Lester captained the
College All-Star team in Chicago. He then
went to work for General Mills and later
owned his own food brokerage business in
Houston, where he was active in getting
the Bluebonnet Bowl started. Lester is
now retired.
John McKay coached the USC Trojans
to four national championships (1962,
1967, 1972 and 1974) and nine Pac-8 Con­
ference titles. McKay developed such
players as Mike Garrett, Ron Vary, Lynn
Swann and O.J. Simpson, who preceded
his coach into the Hall of Fame. As a play­
er, McKay helped Oregon gain a Cotton
Bowl berth in 1948. He then served as an
Oregon coach for nine years before taking
the helm at USC. After compiling a 12740-8 record, McKay resigned to coach at
Tampa Bay of the NFL.

With a 10-year winning percentage of
.855 (77-11-5), Doyt Perry of Bowling
Green was one of college football's most
talented coaches. Not only did his teams
win five Mid-American Conference titles,
but Perry also developed such outstanding
coaches as Bo Schembechler of Michigan
and Bill Mallory of Indiana. Perry began
his coaching career by serving four years
as line coach of Woody Hayes' Ohio State
team. In 1965 he retired to become athletic
director and led the effort to modernize the
Bowling Green sports facilities. The foot­
ball stadium is named in his honor.
In addition to winning All-America ac­
claim in football, Northwestern's Jack
"Tarzan" Riley was a two-time NCAA
wrestling champion and captained the ti­
tle-winning rowing crew. The 6-2, 218
pound Riley played tackle for the Wildcats
from 1929-31. After graduation Riley
wrestled professionally and played for the
Washington Redskins. He later served in
the Marine Corps as a major in the South
Pacific during World War II. Riley organ­
ized the Riley Drilling Company, which
leased, prospected and developed oil and
gas properties.
Florida State's first College Football Hall
of Fame electee is Ron Sellers. He set
NCAA records for career yards receiving
(3,958) and career yards gained per game
(119.9). Playing from 1966 to 1969 under
Seminole coach Bill Petersen, Sellars was a
two-time All-America pick and finished
10th in the 1969 Heisman race. One of Sell­
ers' best collegiate performances included a
260-yard gain and five touchdown passes
against Wake Forest. Sellers went on to play
in the NFL with the Boston Patriots, Dallas
Cowboys and Miami Dolphins. He is presi­
dent of his own company and also serves on
the FSU Board of Trustees.
One of three brothers to play at the Uni­
versity of Oklahoma, Lee Roy Selmon

any people have the
false assumption that
football season begins
in the fall.
Actually, for many
fans, the season began Christmas morning
when, as wide-eyed kids, they opened a
huge, rectangular package and set up the
"realistic" football game. And it was real
—a marked field, goal posts, little plastic
players that were painted (if Dad bought
the deluxe model), a scoreboard and even
bleachers you set up on the sidelines.
After carefully lining up the offense and
defense, placing the tiny felt football in the
runner's arms and finding an electrical outlet
that woriced, it was time for play to begin.
"Hummmmmmm." Ah, the sound of
Electric Football. Those plastic players

metal field. Indeed, it was a sound like
none other.
"Hummmmmmm." Look at that runner
go! What moves!
After the play was over, it didn't matter
if your Jim Brown and half of his blockers

just ran (vibrated) 15 yards backward—
you were playing football.
And if any team were ever lucky
enough to score, you could even kick a
PAT. It's just that the chances of ever
making one were about one in 100. But it
was football.
The game of football has come a long
way since its inception and so have the
football games that are played by kids
(and kids at heart).
With the advent of the computer chip,
"realistic" football is no longer just a sales
pitch. And for the board game purist, the
final score is no longer determined just by
a roll of the dice; modem games have in­
troduced the ingredients of skill, knowl­
edge and experience.
On the real gridiron, players have be­
come bigger, stronger and faster. The
same can now be said for the games
played in the home. Oh, Electric Football
is still shaking up the game market, as it
has for over 35 years. But now there is
more of a selection of football games to
choose from.

Here are some of the different types of
football games available on the market:
Board Gan^s— For more gridiron real­
ism, like ^Kiyers moving up and down the
field or sound effects, look elsewhere. The
football board game is for the purist—a
serious football fan who is hooked on
player statistics and coaching strategy.
The Avalon Hill Game Co. markets four
football-related board games, among hun­
dreds of others. There are two goals that a
good game must have, said Tom Shaw, the
company's vice president.
"It has to be a real-life situation, to give
the player a vicarious experience," he said.
"And the game has to have some decision­
making."
In early versions, football board games
did not involve many decisions, just a roll
of the dice. Now they are a statistician's
dream, because of the computer. It's ironic
that the natural enemy of the board game
would become the key in its resurgence.
But the computer has brought up-to-date
statistics into the games.

"We now have greater stat accuracy, and information is more
available, thanks to computers," Shaw said.
An example is Avalon Hill's most popular football game, Statis
Pro Football. Every NFL player from last season is evaluated in
several statistical areas, and that information is put on a single
card. That way, the best players in the league can be matched up
against one another. The cards are updated every year and sold
separately from the game, making it less expensive to play from
season to season.
While Shaw said that the individual player concept is the most
popular, the company also sells games that use "team charts."
Bowl Bound features 32 of the best college teams, while Paydirt
charts the 28 pro teams.
Another popular board game is Strat-O-Matic Pro Football
manufactured by the Strat-O-Matic Game Co. for about the past
20 years. This game uses a combination of team and individual
cards which, according to company president Hal Richmond,
makes the game one of a kind. "You can actually set players in
different positions on the board, so you can see the action
unfold," Richmond said. Two years ago the company introduced
College Football, which showcases 48 popular college teams.
There is plenty of opportunity to coach in Strat-O-Matic games.
As a defensive coordinator, the player has to be aware of past
offensive tendencies, as well as strengths and weaknesses. You
can switch from a 4-3 defense to a 3-4, blitz on passing situations
and key on certain offensive players.
Other board games available include Pro League Football by
APBA Game Co., NFL Fever by JN Hansen, Cadaco's AllAmerican Football and NFL Strategy by Tudor.

Home Entertainment Systems—These are computer games
without the computer. A home entertainment system does two
things:
• It enables one to play games—with excellent sound and
graphics—through the television set.
• It drives parents crazy.
There are three major systems on the market, made by Nintendo,
Sega and Atari. Each offers a wide selection of game cartridges, from
classic arcade games like Donkey Kong (Nintendo) to spx>rts games
such as golf, hockey, baseball and football. Game cartridges are also
supplied by independent companies, so there are always more than
enough games to keep the kids from doing their homework.
The factors that set these games apart from the board games are
the visual and sound effects. Players really look like players
(well, kind of) and can be controlled by a Joystick. When they run
out onto the screen, the crowd cheers and the referee blows the
whistle. Most of the games feature two-person play or solitaire
play versus the computer.
Sega's game. Great Football, lets "YOU call the plays and car­
ry the ball." Atari puts out a cartridge with the streamlined title.
Football, while Nintendo's game is called 10-Yard Fight.
One advantage to these games is that you don't need a bona
fide computer to play computer games. So if you're interested in
becoming a games junkie without having to worry about bits and
bytes, an entertainment system might be a good alternative.

a Chernobyl Nuclear Plant simulation game could come up with a
great game of football. And it does. Games that run on comput­

Take Avalon Hill's game for the popular Apple Macintosh,
Mac Pro Football. Here's what it can do:
• Set the weather conditions, which do affect the outcome of
the game.
• Create the coin toss.
• Offer a scouting report that rates the players of each of the 40
championship teams in the program.
• Offer three coaching levels.
• At the championship level, 10 defensive decisions can be
made, while on offense, nine are up to the player.
• A player can run precise pass patterns, including up-field and
lateral moves.
If you're into the X's and O's, Mac Pro Football is a game you'd
enjoy, because X's and O's are displayed on the screen.
Avalon Hill's other football computer game. Super Sunday,
features full-screen, color re-enactments of all 20 Super Bowl
teams. Super Sunday is available for Commodore, Apple and
IBM computers.
If exciting simulation is what you want, Activision's GFL
Championship Football could fit the bill. It features "in helmet
perspective," so a player can run with the ball and actually see the
big linebacker running up to make the tackle. GFL is made for the
Commodore.
* * * *
And there are plenty of other games to play. Don't forget about
rotisserie leagues, in which your house mortgage hinges on the
performance of your favorite college or pro players. And there's a
school cafeteria favorite, played with a piece of paper folded into
a triangle. Players take positions at each end of a flat table and
take turns flicking the triangle toward the end zone (the edge of
the table). If a comer of the "football" goes over the edge without
it falling off, it's a touchdown.
Of course, there's nothing better than the real thing, but plenty
of football fans spend their free time playing the game at home.
According to Tom Shaw, the VCR posed the main threat to the
game market, as more people began to watch movies instead of
buying games. But the drop-off in sales was not as bad as expect­
ed; in fact, sales are now better than ever. "We might have sold
even more [games], if not for the VCR," Shaw said.
Many of these games mentioned are so popular that players
have formed their own leagues—and while competition is friend­
ly, it is still fierce.
Stratomatic's Richmond told the story of the guy who was in a 28team league in Edmonton, Alberta. The league has social events and
even a newsletter. Red Dog Alert.
"Unfortunately, he had to move 350 miles away," Richmond
said, "but that didn't keep him from making the 700-mile round
trip once every two weeks to play double-header games."
So which game is right for you? For some, it may not be the
most realistic games that are the most fun. Scott Marley, games and
books editor at Games magazine, has helped review hundreds of
games.
"If I'm playing a sports game, realism makes a difference," he said,
"but it's important that the game is interesting as a game."
Maybe you would just like to watch plastic figures vibrate
down the Electric Football field, or you might opt for the "in-hel­
met perspective." Or something in between.
Whatever your choice, playing football games is a great way to
enjoy the sport and still be in one piece when the final buzz,
bleep or boing is sounded. Q

TIPS ON SHOOTING SPORTS
In all photography, light is the basic
element with which you work. It
determines what film you use, what
apertures and shutter speeds you
choose.. .even the lens you select.
Proper lighting can make a common
subject great; bad lighting can ruin
the best sports shot.
Films are rated according to their
sensitivity to light. Somewhere on the
film canister, you’ll see the letters ISO
and a number from, say, 25 to 1000.
That number is the film speed, and the
higher it is, the moresensitivethefilm
is to light. Generally, fast or highly
sensitive filmstocks are also more
grainy than their slower, less sensitive

The Basics
of Light
and Fiim

brothers. This characteristic can be
used for artistic ends, but most
photographers like the finer resolu­
tion of slower films.
Choosing the right filmstock de­
pends on a number of variables. If
you’re shooting dune buggies at noon
on the Mohave desert, an ISO 25or 64
film will do just fine. In fact, you might
have trouble using an ISO 160 or 400
film: it might be too sensitive to light,
forcing you to use very small aper­
tures or very high shutter speeds. If
you’re going to be shooting a football
game on a dull grey afternoon in
December, though, you’ll need all the
speed you can get, especially if you
want to use the faster shutter speeds
to freeze action.
If you’re shooting black and white
film, you’ve got a good deal of flexibil­
ity. B&W has a great deal of latitude:
you can be off as much as two f-stops
from the correct exposure and still get
a decent negative. Color films, both
negative and slide, unfortunately
have less latitude. If you’re off by
more than about one-half of an f-stop,
you’ll begin to see a color shift.

B&W has another advantage, too.
The film can be “forced,” or exposed
as if it had an ISO rating of two or
three times its actual number'. Your
photo lab can compensate for the
forced underexposure by “push pro­
cessing,” or extending the developing
time. (Among the color films, Kodak’s
Ektachrome slide film can be forced
and push processed.) If the sun hides
behind the clouds and you decide to
force a film, remember to expose the
entire roll at the forced ISO number.
Since the compensation is done in the
developing process, you can’t correct
partially forced rolls of film!
What do you do if you load a film
that’s too sensitive for the light
conditions? The best answer is to use
an inexpensive accessory called a
“neutral density” filter, which mounts
in front of your lens and reduces the
amount of light passing through to
the film. ND filters are available in
strengths that reduce exposure by
one to three f-stops.
While B&W film is versatile, most
photograp'fiers prefer to shoot color.
Color ne'gative films, which produce
prints, are available in speeds up to
ISO 1000, and many have a latitude of
one f-stop with acceptable results.
Color positive film, used to make
slides, has less latitude, but there’s
one filmstock—Kodak’s P800/1600—
that’s designed to be forced and push
processed. You can actually shoot
this film at ISO 3200!
Sooner or later, though, you’re
going to be shooting indoors. If you
supplement inadequate indoor light­
ing with electronic flash, make sure
that you choose a color film that’s
balanced for daylight. (If you use day­
light film under tungsten lights in­
doors, you’ll notice a decided shift
toward the red in all the colors.) Use a
tungsten-balanced film for correct
color values when shooting indoors.
Fluorescent lighting is something of a
problem, but using daylight film with
an FL-D filter provides a pretty good
answer.

Bednarik was discharged Oct. 11, 1945,
long after the football season had begun.
He went home to Bethlehem and paid a
visit to his old high school football coach,
John Butler. Chuck expressed an interest
in going to college on the G.I. Bill, so he
was pointed toward the prestigious Penn
football program under acclaimed coach
George Munger.
"It felt strange walking out onto the foot­
ball field the first time," Bednarik conced­
ed. "All I saw were kids 17 and 18, and
they were the football team. I arrived about
the first of November and beat out the cen­
ter, who was the captain of the team."

Touchdown

Bednarik made his collegiate debut in a
32-7 Ivy League romp over Columbia pri­
or to a rude awakening the following week
against powerhouse Army and its famed
touchdown twins, Glenn Davis and Doc
Blanchard. The Cadets crushed the Quak­
ers, 61-0. "I was in awe . . . there were
78,800 people at Franklin Field," he said.
That was the worst defeat Bednarik suf­
fered as a collegian. Once he joined the
squad, Penn went 20-6-1 in three-plus sea­
sons. The Quakers were 6-2 in 1946, 7-0-1
in 1947 (only a 7-7 tie with Army marring
the season) and 5-0 in 1948 prior to three
season-ending defeats against Penn State

(13-0), Army (26-20) and Cornell (23-14).
When memories of his college career
were rekindled. Chuck fondly told of a 2620 victory over archrival Cornell that con­
cluded his sophomore season and a loss to
Army by the same score his senior year.
"The one I remember most was that
Army game," he said. "Colonel Earl Blaik
was their coach and Sid Gillman was an
assistant. They were a power and we were
a 20-point underdog. We were ahead late
in the game, 20-19, but Arnie Galiffa
threw a touchdown pass to beat us.
"The best college game I ever played
probably was against Cornell in 1946. They
were one of the top teams in the country in
those years and a big Ivy League rival.
There were about 35,000 at Franklin Field
and it was a very emotional game. .■
"We went ahead, 26-6, and if looked
like a rout," Bednarik continued. /"But they
came back to make it 26-20 and were on
our seven-yard line in a fourth-and-three
situation. I made the tackle that saved the
game, and it was a great feeling because of
what the game meant to people.
"You have to remember that Penn foot­
ball was really big in those days. We were
unquestionably the No. 1 team in the state.
Now Penn State has that distinction, and
you'd think they were the only team in the
world, the way they act. You know, I kind
of like to see them get beat."
A fierce competitor to this day, Bed­
narik relishes the memories of working
nearly every down. He was a hard-nosed
athlete who played with relentless energy
and stamina. When he wasn't snapping the
ball or linebacking, he was kicking off and
booting extra points and field goals.
"I enjoyed pj^ying defense the most,"
Bednarik notecf "We played a 6-2-2-1, and
I was the linebacker on the right side be­
cause the fullback lined up on the left side.
If I were playing today. I'd be a linebacker.
That's the glamor position on defense. They
make three times as much as the centers.
"I got my share of publicity in college,
and I earned it. I worked hard in practice,
and I played 58 1/2 minutes a game. I Just
didn't want to come out of the game. My
substitute didn't play much. But it wasn't
such a big deal at the time because a lot of
guys did it in single-platoon football."
Bednarik's ironman feats became more
widely heralded in his later years with the
Eagles. He was the last outstanding twoway performer. At age 35, in 1960, he went
58 1/2 minutes against Green Bay, 57
against New York and 56 against Cleve­
land. It's no coincidence that the two play­
ers he most respected were fellow ironmen
Leo Nomellini and Ernie Stautner.

The work ethic didn't come by acci­
dent. Growing up in a steel town. Chuck
saw nothing but hard work in the Depres­
sion. His parents were immigrants from
the Czechoslovakian village of Siroke,
near Bratislava and about 40 miles north
of Vienna. His father worked in the open
hearth of the steel mill, where it was 200
degrees. He was paid $2,300 a year, sup­
plementing his income by felling trees
with the help of his son.
"I was a natural athlete and high school
sports were an outlet because there wasn't
much else to do but work in the steel
towns," Bednarik said. "I played three

sports. Besides football, I played basketball
and was the catcher on the baseball team.
"I was a fifth-string fullback, weighing
160 pounds, as a high school sophomore. I
became a centerAinebacker after that pretty
much because the all-state center on our
team was injured one week before the open­
er and the coach told me I was the center.
"I felt invincible as an athlete," he added.
"Lehigh Academy was in town, too, but it
was known for academics. High school
sports were bigger. We drew 18,000 for our
traditional football rivalry with neighboring
Allentown High. I loved sports, but I also
knew the value of an education."
Not particularly enamored with the
prospect of spending his adulthood in a
steel mill, Bednarik made education a pri­
ority when he enrolled at Penn. He didn't
give much thought to a professional foot­
ball career and worked toward a degree in
education, which he obtained in June of
1949. By then he was the No. 1 draft
choice of the NFL champion Eagles.
"I totally expected to become a teacher
and a coach," Bednarik said. "Pro football
wasn't what it is now. It was in its adoles­
cence. I'd heard of guys like Steve Van
Buren and Sammy Baugh, but college
football was king in those days.
"Penn was among the top-ranked teams

and drawing big crowds, so I was in awe of
college ball. The pros were the furthest thing
fi-om my mind, and it wasn't because I un­
derestimated my ability. I knew I was a good
athlete. I had success at everything I played.
"What changed my mind was being
drafted No. 1," he noted. "The Eagles of­
fered me a $3,000 cash bonus, which was
big money in those days, and a $10,000
contract. Teachers were making $2,700 a
year, so I wasn't stupid enough to turn
down that money."
Bednarik concentrated on football in
college because Munger emphasized not
being spread too thin since academics

were so important. Chuck lettered one
year in baseball before dropping that
sport. Had he elected to continue, he
might have attained greatness. In 1946 he
set a world record by throwing a baseball
403 feet.
To this day, Bednarik is still a success­
ful competitor. Golf is his passion, and he
recently defeated the 1976 club champion
at Whitemarsh in a round of golf. But his
latest love is the accordion, so Chuck
plunked $6,000 down for a snazzy Italian
instrument and is practicing diligently.

Walker. Navy's Napoleon McCallum
holds the Division I record for a four-year
career with 7,172 yards, twice Grange's
total. Howard Stevens, who played two
seasons at Randolph-Macon and two sea­
sons at Louisville, holds the all-time
NCAA record, 7,564 yards.
Each of those totals is impressive. And
each is a measure of the athlete who pro­
duced them. They are not, however, an
accurate means of comparing the athletes.
The game has changed dramatically
over the years. "I don't see how you can
compare at all," Van Valkenburg said.
"The only thing you can say for sure is the
people who block and tackle are going to
win the game."
An obvious problem in using statistics
to compare Grange's career to that of
Stevens, McCallum or Walker is illustrat­
ed by the fact that the NCAA acknowl­
edges two records, one for three seasons,
another for four.
Because of that. Grange could more
appropriately be compared to Walker, it
would seem. But Walker played in 33
games in three seasons, while Grange
played in 20 of 24 games during his threeyear career at Illinois.
Because of the freshman eligibility rule,
McCallum had an opportunity to play in
44 games during his career. (Bowl game
statistics aren't included in a player's total.)
Seasons were shorter when Grange
played—the opening game in each of his
seasons was played the first week in
October—and so were the games.
"In Red Grange's day, games were
approximately 120 plays long; now they're
145 to 150 plays," Van Valkenburg said.
If teams run 20 percent more plays now,
it's reasonable to assume they'll gain 20
percent more yards. Van Valkenburg took
that into account when he projected 9,600
all-purpose running yards for Grange.
"People say you can't assume Grange
could maintain that pace, and they're
right," said Van Valkenburg. "But remem­
ber, the old-timers had to turn around and
play defense, too."
Because of free substitution and the
resulting specialization, statistics from dif­
ferent eras are misleading when used for
comparison.
Consider the implications. Marcus
Allen, who carried the ball as many times
for Southern Cal in 1981 as Grange did
during his entire career, could rest while
the Trojan defense was on the field. And
Allen could run out of bounds without
worrying about having to take the next
handoff near the sideline. The hash marks
have been moved more toward the center
of the field.
In Grange's time, "when a player went

Although some consider Jim McMahon a throwback to another era, his Brigham Young numbers
would have been much different had he really played in the 1930s.

out of bounds, they put the ball just barely
in bounds [for the next play from scrim­
mage]," Van Valkenburg said. "Half the
team was lining up out of bounds, and
Grange could go only one direction.
Playing defense became pretty simple."
Under those circumstances, where could
a guy go?
"You just put everybody on one side of
the ball," said Van Valkenburg.
The average fan might not be able to see
it, but the location of the hash marks can
make a big difference. When he left the
National Football League to become head
coach at Michigan State, George Perles
was asked to pinpoint the most significant
difference between the college and pro
games. He insisted it was the location of
the hash marks.
There are other factors that influence
statistics from different eras and render
them useless in comparing players: artifi­
cial playing surfaces, changes in the shape
and size of the ball, improved equip­
ment—face masks weren't made legal
until 1951—the advent of the T-formation
and rules affecting the forward pass.
How can you compare Brigham Young's
Jim McMahon to Texas Christian's Davey
O'Brien by using their passing statistics?
Like Van Valkenburg says, you can't.
O'Brien led the nation in passing in
1937, the first season for which the NCAA
acknowledged statistics, and in 1938.
In 1938 the 5-7, 150-pound Single-

Wing tailback led the Homed Frogs to an
undefeated season and won the Heisman
Trophy by rushing 124 times for 390 yards
and completing 93 of 167 passes for 1,457
yards and 19 touchdowns. He also, of
course, played defense. He punted,
returned punts and kickoffs, and kicked
extra points.
McMahon's only concern was throwing
passes, which he did 445 times in 12
games in 1980. O'Brien attempted 434
passes during his entire career.
McMahon completed 284 for 4,571
yards and 47 touchdowns.
The circumference of the ball was
reduced to make passing easier, and teams
were allowed more than one incomplete
pass during a four-down series in 1934.
But O'Brien still had to live with a mle
requiring a passer to be at least five yards
behind the line of scrimmage. That wasn't
changed until 1945.
Prior to 1938, teams lost possession of
the ball for incomplete passes thrown into
the end zone. In 1938 the rule was
changed so that touchbacks were awarded
for incompletions in the end zone only on
fourth down.
And in 1941, fourth-down incomplete
passes in the end zone were no longer
ruled touchbacks. The defending team
took possession at the spot from which the
ball was put in play.
One of the most significant rule changes

favoring the passing game in recent sea­
sons came in 1985, when offensive linemen
were allowed to use open hands and
extended arms in pass blocking. It's easy to
understand why quarterbacks who com­
plete better than 60 percent of their passes
are becoming commonplace.
The NCAA single-season record for
completion percentage, set by Brigham
Young's Steve Young in 1983, is a remark­
able .713. Young accomplished that with
429 attempts, and he was intercepted only
10 times.

interceptions (18) in about half as many
attempts (234) during the 1937 season.
Comparisons of players from different
eras based on statistics are misleading, at
best. Prior to 1937, they're virtually
impossible because there were no uniform
statistics kept, if any were kept at all.
For example, Willie Heston, a consensus
All-America in 1903 and 1904, apparently
played in 36 games during a four-year
career at Michigan. But his statistics are
available for only 17 of those games.
According to Van Valkenburg, Homer
F. Cooke Jr., a Seattle sports writer, estab­
lished the first national clearing house for
college football statistics, at his own
expense.
Cooke, who also compiled statistics for
the National Basketball Association and
the All-American Football Conference,
was first subsidized by the NCAA in
1946, an association that continued,
except for a brief period in 1949, until
1973, when Cooke retired.
College football statistics weren't stan­
dardized until 1941. "Before that, forget
it. Van Valkenburg said. "Everybody had
their own system."
For example, some might measure a punt
from the line of scrimmage, others from the
point at which the ball was punted.
Fielding H. Yost, a member of the
American Football Coaches Association
Rules Committee in 1941, was primarily
res|K)nsible for standardizing college foot­
ball statistics. The legendary Michigan
coach and athletic director is credited with
writing the first scoring rules.
"From then on, they [statistics] were

pretty uniform, pretty accurate," said Van
Valkenburg.
Statistics compiled prior to the ambi­
tious efforts of Cooke and the standardiza­
tion headed up by Yost are suspect, at
best, except for those of the immortal
players like Grange. Thanks to Steve
Boda Jr., associate director of statistics for
the NCAA, Grange's statistics have been
verified as much as possible.
During Grange's time, newspapers car­
ried play-by-play accounts of college
games. Boda made more than 100 round
trips to the Library of Congress, at his own
expense, to research the career of Grange
and several other college greats, according
to Van Valkenburg. Prior to 1937, "the
only stafistics I believe are Boda's," he
said.
David Nelson, secretary-editor of the
NCAA Football Rules Committee for the
last 25 years, was asked to identify the
most significant rule changes over the last
50 years. Among those he chose were:
•Unlimited substitution, which
"changed the game dramatically; it
increased the tempo and intensity of the
game," Nelson said.
•The 1959 rule that widened the goal
posts from 18' 6" to 23' 4" and allowed
field goal kickers to use two-inch kicking
tees (in 1958 there were 103 successful
field goals; in 1984 there were 1,442).
•Several rules having to do with the for­
ward pass, including the previously men­
tioned one eliminating the requirement
that the passer had to be at least five yards
behind the line of scrimmage.

•Safety and equipment for safety, most
notably a 1971 rule change that prohibited
blocking below the waist and thus cut
down on the number of knee injuries.
•The rules increasing the number of
officials from four in 1937 to the current
seven in 1983.
•Legalization of coaching from the
sidelines in 1967.
•The ones affecting statistics.

he evolution of college football has
been consistent with the belief that
records are made to be broken. Most
the modem records in the NCAA football
guide, which dates back to 1937, were set
in the last 25 years.
Teams play more games, with more
snaps per game, than they did in 1937.
Playing conditions have improved dramat­
ically. And the rules have been changed in
ways that produce more offense.
As a result, it's difficult to find NCAA
records that have stood the test of time ...
not impossible, just difficult. If you look
hard enough, you'll even find a few mod­
em (post-1937) NCAA records that proba­
bly never will be broken.
There's one, for sure. And you're going
to get a kick out of it. On Nov. 11, 1939,
Texas Tech played Centenary in
Shreveport, La., in a game that produced
77 punts.
"That's right. Rub your eyes and look
again—77.
The NCAA guide offers a footnote by
way of explanation. The game was played
in a "heavy downpour."
Obviously. It was raining footballs.
Think the philosophy of defense has
changed a little in the last 50 years?
Texas Tech punted 39 times, a single­
game record. Centenary punted 38 times,
the No. 2 total on the all-time list.
Equally remarkable is the fact that 67 of
the punts came on first downs, including
22 in a row during the third and fourth
quarters. That means in one stretch, Texas
Tech punted to Centenary, and Centenary
turned right around and punted the ball
back to Texas Tech—11 times!
Imagine what network officials would
have done if the game had been televised.
The NCAA guide notes: 42 of the punts
were returned, 19 went out of bounds, 10
were downed, one went into the end zone
for a touchback, four were blocked and
one was fair-caught.
Texas Tech's Charlie Calhoun punted an
NCAA single-game-record 36 times for
1,318 yards or an average of 36.6 yards
per punt.

"Statistics are the gauge, the barometer
. . . they are absolutely critical and essen­
tial for the Rules Committee for stabilizing
the game," according to Nelson.
They are not, however, an effective
means of comparing great players from
different eras.
Jim Thorpe rushed for 1,869 yards in 14
games in 1912. He scored 29 touchdowns,
converted 38 extra points and kicked four

of

SOME RECORDS
ARE MADE TO
BE UNBROKEN

The Red Raiders' Milton Hill returned 20
punts in the game, another record that's like­
ly to stand forever, and gained 110 yards.
Not surprisingly, the game also pro­
duced NCAA records for the fewest scrim­
mage plays by one team (Texas Tech's 10)
and two teams (31). Texas Tech finished
with minus-one yard of offense. Centenary
rolled up 30 yards, total.
The final score? You guessed it—0-0.
Among the other modem NCAA foot­
ball records that probably won't be broken,
given the nature of the game now:
•Most consecutive victories (47) by
Oklahoma, 1953-57. With changes in
scholarship limits, the increasing emphasis
on football as a revenue-producer at most
major colleges and more attractive inter­
sectional matchups for television, teams
no longer dominate the way Bud
Wilkinson's Sooners did. The string was
snapped by Notre Dame, 7-0.
•Most consecutive regular-season
shutouts (17) by Tennessee, 1938-40. The
same factors that apply to Oklahoma's
winning streak apply here, with the added
factor that the rules have changed to
encourage offense and scoring. Tennessee
went a record 71 consecutive quarters
without allowing a point, a streak that was
ended by Alabama on Oct. 19,1940.
•Fewest points allowed per game in a
season (0.0) by Tennessee in 10 games
during the 1939 season and by Duke in
nine games during the 1938 season. It's
tough enough these days to go undefeated
Md untied, much less unscored upon. The
latter would seem to be impossible.
•Most scoreless tie games in a season
(4) by Temple in 1937. Again, the rule
changes have led to more plays, more of­
fense, more scoring. It's difficult to believe

field goals.
Allen won the Heisman Trophy in 1981

downs in 11 games.
What do those numbers mean?
Thorpe and Allen were both great players.
But they can't be compared with statis­
tics. The numbers may not lie, but they

that even the most inept offensive team
could now play four equally inept offen­
sive teams in consecutive weeks. Temple
played only nine games in 1937.
•Fewest yards allowed per game in a
season (69.9) by Santa Clara in,T937.
•Lowest average yards per play allowed
in a season (1.71) by Texas A^M in 1939.
•Fewest rushing yards allowed per
game (17.0) by Penn State/in 1947. These
three records depend, at least in part, on
the fact that games had fewer plays 40 or
50 years ago, and teams played shorter
schedules. Santa Clara played only eight
games in 1937. The Broncos didn't have to
maintain their average for as long.
•Highest average gain per play during a
season (7.92) by Army in 1945. Yes, this
was a Glenn Davis and Doc Blanchard team,
•Fewest rushes allowed in a game (7)
by North Carolina against Virginia on
Nov. 27,1943. Virginia gained five yards.
•Fewest yards gained, both teams, by
passing (minus-13), North Carolina and
Pennsylvania on Nov. 13, 1943. North
Carolina completed one of three passes for
minus-seven yards. Penn completed two of
twelve for minus-six yards.
•Most two-point attempts made in a
game (6) by Jim Pilot of New Mexico
State agifinst Hardin-Simmons on Nov. 25,
1961. Very few individual records have
managed to survive the changes in the
game. With specialization and an
increased emphasis on placekicking, how­
ever, it's unlikely that a team, much less an
individual player, would even attempt six
two-point conversions in a game. For the
record. Pilot failed on a seventh.
•Most all-purpose running yards gained
per game (246.3) by Byron "Whizzer"
White of Colorado in 1937. It's conceiv­
able that someone could break this record,
although specialization and the physical
demands of an 11-game regular-season
schedule, not to mention the speed and
strength of players, would seem to make it
difficult. White gained 1,970 yards in
eight games: 1,121 rushing, 103 on inter­
ception returns, 587 on punt returns and
159 on kickoff returns. —Mike Babcock '

Iowa City (Iowa) Press-Citizen

o some people, big-money
boosters represent a seamy
side of college athletics.

T

People with hefty pocketbooks and hearty appetites for
an association with college sports are
sometimes at the center of National Colle­
giate Athletic Association violations that
rock a program. The boosters' best inten­
tions—in the days of the Death Penalty for
repeated rules violators in college
sports—can practically kill a program.
But there is another faction of big-money
boosters who have a different kind of effect
on college athletics. They are the ones who
enable collegiate sports programs to live.
The cost of running a major-college
program is steep. Without the financial
contributions of supporters, most athletic
programs would wither away.
No way," Don Winston said when
asked if a Division I program could oper­
ate in the black without fund raising. Win­
ston, an associate athletic director at the
University of Southern California, is in
charge of fund raising.
"No school in the country makes
enough money from gate receipts and
football bowls and television to operate,"
Winston said. "It's just too costly. By and
large, all athletic programs depend greatly
on gifts from private sources in order to
balance their budget."
When athletic administrators like Win­
ston talk about fan support, they are not just
talking about somebody who fills the stadi­
um seats and makes some noise for the
home team by putting his hands together.
They are talking about someone who can
also use those hands to pass a check on to
his favorite athletic department.
Plenty of people do that, and the checks
add up.
At use $5.8 million was raised last
year in athletic fund raising. The money
helps use pay for scholarships, which
amount to $17,000 per year per athlete.
Despite the annual giving, the hefty cost
of tuition at the private school can be pro­
hibitive. So use set up an endowment

scholarship costs.
For a one-time $250,000 donation, z
Trojan supporter can "buy" a position or
the football team. The money is an endow­
ment, and the interest pays the cost of one
player’s scholarship each year. In the first
18 months of the program, 16 of the 24
starting positions were "sold."
Winston said the $5.8 million raised last
year may have made the Trojans No. 1 in
the country in athletic fund raising. Win­
ning the Pacific-10 Conference title and go­
ing to the Rose Bowl didn't hurt any, either.
Going to the Rose Bowl makes us all
better fund-raisers," Winston said. "It eertainly helps to win."
They have learned that at the University
of Iowa, where $4.5 million was generated
last year from private donors. That repre­
sents almost a third of the athletic depart­
ment s annual budget. It also represents a
gratifying contrast to the days when the
Iowa football team was enduring 19
straight non-winning seasons—and feeling
it in the pocketbook.
And so, when Iowa's football program
began its turnaround in the early .1980s,
the financial support grew, despite a state
economy that was sputtering from the
farm crisis.
Iowa athletic director Bump Elliott says
supporters donate their dollars to a program
because they have an enthusiasm for athlet­
ics and feel a closeness to the university.
When you have a good program,
they re anxious to help you," Elliott said of
contributors. "If you don't have a good
program, when you need help, they don't
help you. It’s like anything else; Nothing
succeeds like success."
Elliott sat in his handsome office at the

15,500-seat Carver-Hawkeye Arena as he
spoke. The sparkling $18 million arena,
which opened in 1983, was built with the
aid of a fund-raising campaign that netted
$10 million in six months.
"Contributors are vitally important to
our program," Elliott said.
That was not always the case at Ohio
State, but it is now.
Dave Nicolls, the Buckeyes' director of
athletic development, said that as recently
as 1978 Ohio State had no fund-raising
program. But the growing emphasis, on
women's sports and increasing inflation
caused Ohio State to seek private funds.
It has had no trouble finding them.
Last year Ohio State raised $4.5 million,
which represented about 20 percent of its
athletic budget. Currently the Buckeyes are
in the middle of a separate $45 million cap­
ital campaign to build an indoor practice fa­
cility, a wrestling and volleyball arena, new
administrative offices and a hall of fame.
"We have really put a lot of effort into
fund raising and marketing that we never
had in the past," Nicolls said.
"[Boosters] do want to see Ohio State
have athletic excellence here. They just
like to be winners at Ohio State, and it
costs money to be winners. We have a lot
of tradition and heritage here, and people
want to continue that."
Tiny Augustana College in Rock Island,
111., has quite a tradition, also. The school
has won four Division III national football
titles in the last five years. But, like most
smaller schools, success on the football
field does not lead directly to more money
in the athletic department coffers.
That is because Augie's athletic pro­
gram is funded just as are the chemistry
department and every other department on
campus. The money comes from the gen­
eral budget of the college.
So no donations go directly to the ath­
letic department. Athletic Director John
Farwell, however, suspects that the suc­
cesses on the football field have enhanced
donations to the college. Those donations
have enabled Augustana to build a new
$12 million library.
There are an awful lot of people who
feel good about Augustana College right
now," Farwell said. "Athletics probably
are a part of what's making peoplq feel
good about Augustana."
Farwell does not resent the fact that the
football program's success is not directly
beneficial to the athletic program.
"If athletics are part of the educational
system, they should be funded as part of the
educational system, just as the other depart­
ments are," Farwell said. "It's still part of

the athlete’s education. It's treated as such
and, therefore, it should be funded as such."
Sometimes boosters have the wrong
idea about how their funds should help the
university. When their money goes direct­
ly to a recruit or an athlete, instead of to
the school's fund-raising effort, the boost­
ers are doing their team a disservice. A
university can be sanctioned for those ac­
tions, even though the boosters are usually
outside o/ihe university's control.
People in the Southwest Conference
know all about that. Four of the league's
nine football teams were on NCAA proba­
tion last year, and boosters were named in
the violations at all four schools, usually
for illegal recruiting.
Therefore, the conference sponsored
NCAA legislation to eliminate boosters
from the recruiting process. Effective Aug.
1 of last year, boosters at Division I schools
cannot have any contact with a recruit.
Southwest Conference commissioner
Fred Jacoby feels that boosters' contribu­
tions are important, but that universities,
not boosters, must determine how the
money is used.
"[Money from supporters] must be insti­
tutionally controlled, that's the main
thing," Jacoby said.
It's a system that works. □

in me, so I wanted to be prepared. It was
the last day I wore those long Johns."
Campbell had a similar experience
when he left for Madison. "I took my re­
cruiting trip in December 1985," Campbell
said. "It was mostly below zero that partic­
ular December. It was horrible. But I came
with an open mind. There's no way that I
was going to let the weather get ahead of a
good education and a good opportunity."
His parents, in the meantime, had an
open closet.
"They sent me every coat that we ever
owned," Campbell said, laughing. "They
sent me my ski suit, every coat that my
dad ever owned, his college letterman's
jacket, numerous pairs of long Johns. It
was Just hilarious." Campbell was asked if
the hilarity wore off after the football sea­
son ended and the winter wore on.
"Actually, it's harder during the season,"
he said. "In the offseason you can be in­
side. You don't have to practice."
Wisconsin sophomore quarterback Otis
Flowers of Houston agreed, especially
during spring practice, with temperatures
in the 30s and a brisk wind whipping
around Camp Randall Stadium in Madi­
son. "I can't believe they call this spring
practice," he said. "It's really cold. Back in
Houston, it s 79 degrees and sunny,
spring weather."
While Prinzivalli, Manuel, Campbell
and Flowers all went from warm climates
to cold, Scott Hoffman did Just the oppo­
site. He went from Elgin, 111., to the Uni­
versity of Florida, where he is a freshman
this season. Amazingly, he said, the
weather didn t have much to do with his
decision.
Actually, I was looking at the amount of
playing time available, the opportunity to
step in and play as soon as possible," he said.
He admitted that the weather during his
recruiting trip didn't hurt, however.
A couple of years earlier, Hoffman and
his parents had been visiting his grand­
mother in Clearwater, Fla., for Christmas.
They drove down from Illinois and
stopped to visit the university on their way
back home. Once they got to Gainesville,
they rolled down all the windows and took
off their Jackets.
Hoffman had the same sensation when
he went back to Florida on his recruiting
trip last November.
I remember it was the same feeling as
when we were down there and had the win­
dows open, he said. "When we got off the
plane, instead of coming into an airport, they
Just pulled out the stairs and you walked
right out on the ground. That was pretty dif- |

ferent. But I was hoping for it to be like that.
I was expecting it to be really w^. It was
pretty nice the whole weekend."
But you re still saying the weather was­
n't a factor in picking Florida? "I'd defi­
nitely say it wasn't," Campbell said. "I ac­
tually like the winter in C)iicago. I love
the warm Just as much, but I think I'll miss
the snow. It's always pretty much the same
in Florida, I think."
Mike Murray must have felt as if he
were down on the farm when he left the
south side of Chicago for Lincoln, Neb.
"I thought the town was a little small,
but you get used to it," said Murray, a Ju­
nior middle guard at the University of Ne­
braska. There are a lot of smaller cities
than Lincoln. It's big enough so that it's all
right. It's a big little city."
But there are plenty of differences be­
tween Chicago, 111., and Lincoln, Neb.
"The airport is a little different from
O Hare—about two terminals," Murray
said, laughing. "There's not the hustle and
bustle here. I five downtown, so there are
people aroiuid, but it's nothing compared
to downto not even close. Things definitely slowed
down a little bit, but I wasn't a maniac at
home, either. Still, it is different."
Like all the athletes interviewed, though,
Murray was thankful for the chance to ex- perience different places and different
things. Many had selected their schools Just
for that kind of chance. Murray, like the
others, thought the experience helped him
to grow. And it was while discussing the
differences between the two cities he has
lived in that Murray said probably the most
important thing that could be said by a
player who finds himself in a different cli­
mate, a different culture, a different land­
scape or a different pace.
Probably speaking for all the rest of those
athletes whove survived their big moves
^d gotten over their culture shock, he said,
"I'm pretty comfortable here right now."
What more could they ask for? □

If you think the best way to pay for college is to
put it off for a few years and join the military, you’re
half right.
Because with the New GI Bill, you can join the
Army National Guard and earn over $15,000 for
college.
But best of all, you serve part-time, as little as
two days a month and two weeks a year. Which means
you can go to school full-time. Right now. On us.
So the question you have to ask yourself is not,
can you afford to go to college.
The question is, can you afford to wait.

In this one-platoon era of foot­

■

ball, the term "triple threat" was
very popular—and was always
reserved for players who ran, passed and
kicked in spectacular fashion. Players had
to go both ways, but defense was some­
how not included in the "triple threat."
Thus, Vic Bottari was a "quadruplethreat" star for the Golden Bears during
his senior season—he was Cal's leading
rusher, leading passer, leading scorer and
kicker, and a holy terror as a linebacker.
His tackling saved more than a couple of
games.
Bottari, nicknamed "Vallejo Vic" after a
spectacular high school career in Vallejo,
Calif., was certainly not big by most stan­
dards, not at 5-9 and 185 pounds. But a
half century after he was a unanimous AllAmerica selection, he still sits in the Top
10 among all of California's rushers (No. 8
with 1,536 yards) and scores (No. 6, 145
points), and many who saw him play still
declare that he could do more with a foot­
ball than anyone they had ever seen.
He probably could. He started only one

game in which California lost—13-7 to
Southern f:a^ifornia in 1938—and his
coach, S^b Allison, declared that Cal
could easily have lost another four or five
games without his services.
At the time of his first varsity start in
1936, Cal had a 3-4 record, but in his four
starts at the end of the season, he lead the
Bears to three wins. In 1937, when the
team was unbeaten and beat Alabama in
the Rose Bowl, Sam Chapman was the ac­
knowledged star and an All-America back,
but Bottari, as tailback, directed the of­
fense and was its big producer, delivering
a pair of touchdowns in Cal's Rose Bowl
victory.
In 1938 Bottari literally did it all. He
called all the plays, took care of 80 percent
of the passing, ran the ball 60 to 75 per­
cent of the time, backed up the line and
was its inspirational leader. He was also an
accurate drop-kicker, the only one in the
Pacific Coast Conference, returned
punts—he never fumbled one during his

quick kick when the opportunity arose.
Actually, his smallish build worked to
his advantage. He had huge shoulders and
legs, but tacklers seldom hit him squarely
because of his peculiar habit of sliding off
for extra yards. If an eager tackier tried to
take him head on, those big legs simply
smashed the tackler's grasp apart. And
with his 5-9 height, he ran low to the
ground, where he did not make a good tar­
get. If tacklers wanted him, they had to go
lower to get him, and then they ran into
those churning legs.
Despite this fullback-type running style,
he also developed a fine change of pace in
the open field, much like a shifty halfback
instead of a runner who was such a pun­
ishing performer to the inside of the de­
fense.
"We had a pretty good team in those
years, though I believe our 1937 team was
a bit stronger than in 1938," he said. Bottari, who was an honors graduate of Cal,

says, "When you have a big gun,
keep firing it."
At Texas Mines (now the University of
Texas-El Paso), Coach Cactus Jack Cur­
tice had a big gun—^Fred Wendt—and in a
game in 1948 against New Mexico A&M,
Curtice kept firing him ... and firing him
... and firing him.
When all the smoke had cleared, Wendt
had accumulated 326 rushing yards and
established an NCAA season mark of
1,383. The Miners had an embarrassing
92-7 victory, thanks to Wendt, whose
yardage made up most of the team's 727
yards of total offense.
"Fred was a fine player, obviously,." re­
called Ben Collins, one of Curtice’s assis­
tant coaches at that time. "His biggest as­
set was his speed, and perhaps his biggest
liability was his lack of experience when
he came to Texas Mines. He hardly played
much in high school, and when we saw
him for the first time in 1946, he was tried
as a guard.
"Heck, at that time, he was 6-1 and 190
pounds, so he had good size, and he had
fine speed. But the more we looked at him,
and the more we watched him move on the
football field, the more convinced we be­
came that he would make a better running
back than offensive lineman."
Collins said that Wendt had none of the

ran his own insurance business for years in
Berkeley, and now lives in Orinda, Calif.
He agreed that the national acclaim he
received in 1938 made the season special,
though he was still disappointed that Cal
did not go to the Rose Bowl. USC got the
call, though Cal finished with the same
PCC record (6-1) as the Trojans. "They
beat us, 6-0, so that probably made the dif­
ference when the powers that be made the
selection," he said.
During that season, Bottari really made
the difference between Cal's 10-1 record
and the 5-6 or 6-5 they would have had
without him. In a 20-7 win over UCLA, he
scored a TD, gaining 40 of 41 yards in that
scoring drive. He scored a TD and passed
21 yards to Louis Smith to set up the
clinching TD in a 14-7 win over Washing­
ton the following week. And the week af­
ter that, he scored a TD, completed three
of six passes and ran for 59 yards in a 13-7
win over Oregon State.

Wendt Fires
NCAA Rushing Record
cute tricks owned by many running backs,
but he had the one asset every coach
wants—great speed.
"If we got him around the comer, he
was gone," Collins said. "But in the mean­
time, if we ran him off the tackles, then he
just hit into the hole with that great speed,
but he never tried to avoid anyone. 'That's
because he had never developed any of the
moves or techniques that many backs use
to make little gains become big ones.
"I often thought, 'Boy, if you get just a
cutback move or two, you'd 1^ a terror.'"
When Curtice became concerned that
Wendt was taking too many real pastings
from collision after collision with defend­
ers, he got the ball to Pug Gabriel of the
Miners, who would pound through the
middle of the defense until it tightened up,
and then Curtice would spring Wendt
around the comer again.
"But mostly," Collins admitted, "Fred
was our guy in those years. He was a
coachable player who simply worked his
butt off on the practice field and in a
game. I'd see him in the shower after a
game, and he'd be a mass of bmises from
head to toe after carrying the ball 20 or 25
times and taking on all those defenders.

"We got handled pretty well by South­
ern Cal the following week," he recalled.
"Maybe we were due, because we had
won 18 games in a row. They scored both
TDs in the second half, and ours came in
the fourth quarter."
That was from Bottari's 38-yard pass to
Morley Mathewson. Cal gained Only 84
yards that day (Bottari accounted for 66 of
them), and never got a first down until
there were six minutes to play in the game.
However, it was in a 6-0 victory against
Stanford—the next-to-last game of the
season—that Bottari really shone. He
passed 22 yards for the game's only score,
gained 54 yards in 14 rushing attempts
and, when Stanford had a first down at
Cal's two-yard line, he made two of his
team's tackles single-handedly; and assist­
ed on the other two. Stanford never gained
an inch. In short, he won tlje game—^and
then he saved it.

"He was more than just our best mnning
back," Collins added. "He had such great
leg drive that we gave him a shot at punt­
ing and kicking extra points. He did a
great job. Then we let him kick off, and
he'd often drive balls deep into the end
zone."
But it was his speed that killed oppo­
nents such as New Mexico A&M on that
record-settii^ day. He scored six touch­
downs thaL afternoon (and kicked all six
extra points), but three of the scores came
on mns of 52,48 and 49 yards.
"I think all of us felt Aat Curtice ran it
up against the New Mexico team, but
whenever Jack had a team down, he never
let it up. And when he had an opportimity
to get one of his players a big ^y, he let
that happen, too.
"Still," Collins added, "Fred never
thought it was a big deal. He was a nice
kid, a real all-American, clean-living kind
of guy who was so enthusiastic and con­
scientious about the game."
Wendt, now in the oil equipment busi­
ness in Odessa, Texas, still holds school
records with his 326 rushing yards and his
1,570 yards for that 1948 season. He is the
No. 3 career rusher, with 2,166 yards, 40
years after he finished playing.
That's not bad for a guy who couldn't
play offensive guard.

^T€X0)MM

A new term hit football's lexicon
in 1958—^the lonely end.
It was Earl "Red" Blaik's idea to
open up his offense by having one of his
ends, specifically Bill Carpenter, stationed
far to the outside on every offensive play.
He not only lined up wide on every play,
he even stayed there after the play was
over, not even coming into the huddle to
hear the play called.
Earlier that year, at the American Foot­
ball Coaches Association meeting in
Chicago, Blaik outlined the rudiments of
his idea to his former assistant, Andy
Gustafson, then head coach at the Univer­
sity of Miami.
"It's a great idea. Red," Gustafson said,
"but if you make that player run back and
forth between the huddle and the near
sideline on every play, you'll wear him out
physically."
Blaik thought about that, and thus came
up with the idea to post Carpenter at that
spot throughout the game, and never allow
him into the huddle. He then came up with
a method of communication, one of the
most sought-after secrets of the entire
1958 season, during which Army was un­
beaten and won the Lambert Trophy as the

When the End Does
Justify the Means
East's top team.
"It all revolved around our quarterback,
Joe Caldwell," said Blaik, who retired to
Colorado after that 1958 season, to work
with his sons. Bill and Bob (a former West
Point quarterback), in the energy and cat­
tle business.
"When Caldwell stood in the huddle
with his feet squared, the upcoming play
was a run. If either foot was advanced, it
was a pass.
"If it was a run, there were five different
fundamental blocking assignments for
Carpenter to choose from. If it was a pass,
he followed one of the same routes as he
would if he were going to block," Blaik

continued.
"Bill knew which one of the five on a
signal flashed to him by halfback Pete
Dawkins as Pete moved from the huddle
to his position as setback or wingback.
Thus, Carpenter knew precisely which
route to take, and either blocked in the
secondary or was in a position to take a
pass. And, on either run or pass, the de­
fense was forced to cover him.
"And," Blaik added, "the lonely end for­
mation was fundamentally to the right. So
when Carpenter, after a play, saw that the
team would have to line up too close to the
right hash mark for him to set the distance
required by the lonely end, he would, prior
to the huddle, automatically post himself

Part of the reason was that Carpenter was

And his football career, both in 1958
and in 1959, was superb. As the lonely

Leroy Keyes of Purdue was ar­
guably the most versatile and
productive player that college
football has seen over the last few
decades.
In 1967 he was the third-highest votegetter for the Heisman Trophy, won by
UCLA quarterback Gary Beban. Going in­
to the 1968 season, he and O.J. Simpson
were considered the most likely to win the
award, and Keyes' Purdue team was the
preseason pick to win the national champi­
onship.
Alas, neither came to pass—^but no one
can fault Keyes. The 6-3, 208-pounder
from Newport News, Va., gave one of the
sport's best single-season performances.

Not only was he an All-America at run­
ning back, but he played flanker and de­
fensive back and kicked off for his team.
Oh yes, he was also team captain.
When the Boilermakers played Notre
Dame, the Irish featured quarterback Teny
Hanratty and end Jim Seymour, the na­
tion’s best pass-catch tandem. During the
week before the game, Purdue coach Jack
Mollenkopf asked Keyes if he would play
comerback on defense in addition to his
offensive duties to help bolster the defense
against what Mollenkopf knew would be a
ferocious passing attack.
"I had played defensive back in high
school and even some during my sopho­
more season at Purdue," said Keyes, who
now works as a desegregation specialist in
the Philadelphia school system and runs
youth athletic programs. "I felt I could do
it, but mainly, if it meant it gave us a
chance to win, then it was important for
me to take on the extra job."
Well, it did help Purdue to win, 37-22.
He did not allow Seymour to catch a pass,
but such was his athletic ability that Notre
Dame soon ran its pass offense away from
him. On offense that day, he also gained
90 yards rushing, and had TD runs of 16
and 18 yards. He even threw a 17-yard
touchdown pass and caught three others
for 33 yards.
Afterward, he said: "Winning this game
IS more important than winning the Heisman Trophy. A lot of guys wind up win­
ning the Heisman Trophy, and some of
them are rarely heard of again. But if you
can lead your team to a national champi­
onship, then no one ever forgets."
It appeared that he was en route to do­
ing just that until the top-ranked Boiler­
makers got flattened by Ohio State two
weeks later. Purdue was a 13-point fa­
vorite, but lost, 13-0. For his part, Keyes
was suffering from badly bruised ribs and

wound up playing flanker for most of that
game, thus depriving Purdue of its most
fearsome running weapon.
In the next poll, the Boilermakers
wound up as the fifth-ranked team, and
Southern Cal and Simpson were No. 1.
"O.J. carried the ball 25 and 30 times a
game because he

was Southern Cal's of­

fense," Keyes said without bitterness. "I
couldn't do that, but I could cany it 15 or
20 times, catch four or five passes play
comerback and kick off.
Purdue was not a glamour team like
Southern Cal. We played in the Big Ten,
and in the minds of many, all we did was
play Big Ten teams. We didn't mn student
body right and student body left, but we
mixed it up so that no one player ever had
to cany all the load.
"Voters in the Midwest had several
choices for the Heisman, so no one could
capture all of the votes. All the writers
west of the rockies had Southern Cal and
Simpson, and no one else. All of those
were factors.
/
Still, I can look back and know that as
a kid who came from Newport News, Va
I was a two-time All-America,' and I was
third one year and second the next in the
Heisman Trophy voting. That’s not too
shabby."
His fondest memoiy is of his final game
against Indiana.
"That was for the Olde Oaken Bucket
and I wanted to put a 'P' on it as a great
way to go Out," he recalled. "It meant a lot
to the alumni to win that, and it meant a
lot to the seniors. Sort of a last hurrah."
Purdue trailed, 28-17, going into the fi­
nal quarter before Keyes closed the gap to
28-24 with a one-yard TD run. Then the
Hoosiers' Harry Gonso threw a TD pass
that seemed to seal the game.
But on their next possession, the Boiler­
makers scored on Mike Phipps’ 56-yard
TD pass to Keyes, and when they got the
ball for the last time it was all Keyes. He
b^eled in from the one-yard line with the
winning TD/ith just 90 seconds to play.
"That is \t^hat I remember best about my
college football career—the times when it
took 110 percent to win. It was the way I
was taught to play the game."

BAUMGARTNER - EDINBORO'S SUCCESS STORY
complacent The '88 Games are a great challenge
that lies ahead for me, and I have always realized
that I have to work very hard to meet that chal­
lenge," Baumgartner added. "I compete against
myself; I simply have to keep pushing."
The success story of this 6-2, 275pound athlete began at the collegiate level. Not
heavily recruited out of high school by the colle­
giate wrestling powers, Baumgartner chose Indi­
ana State University. While showing academic
excellence in the classroom (3.77 out of 4.0), he
posted an impressive 134-12 record as a colle­
giate. He was twice national runner up and con­
cluded his career with an unbeaten mark of 44-0
and a national championship title in 1982.
His classroom work also brought
Baumgartner plenty of accolades as he was grant­
ed an NCAA post-graduate scholarship for his
excellent grade point average and received his
masters degree at Oklahoma State while also serv­
ing as an assistant wrestling coach.
After capturing the gold medal in '84,
Baumgartner did not rest on his laurels. In '85 he won his sec­
ond World Cup and the prestigious World Super champi­
onships in Japan. In '86 he captured his third World Cup tide,
then finally won the one tide that had eluded him - the World
Championship - to become the first United States wrestler
ever to win the world heavyweight crown, and the first to
break the Soviet heavyweight reign since 1961.
As he prepares for the '88 Games, Baumgartner is
coming off a very successful 1987 during which he captured
the heavyweight Utle at the Pan-American Games in Indi­
anapolis, took third in the World Championships, and won his
eighth straight title at the Midlands Tournament
The heavyweight wresder set several records during
the '87 Midlands Tourney. His eight consecutive tides are two
ahead of the legendary Dan Gable and Ben Peterson who cap­
tured six straight. He has won 40 consecutive Midlands
matches, breaking Gable's old mark of 31, and his overall
slate of 43-2 gives him the most wins in Midlands history.
What lies ahead for Baumgartner? "I think he will go
at least through the 1989 World Championships," said his wife
Linda. "The loss to Khadartsev last year really inspired him to
win another championship."
Bruce then acknowledged with a grin, "She's pretty
smart about these things."
Win or lose come next month, Bruce Baumgartner
has made Edinboro University and the community down right
proud.

The word success has become synonymous with the
name Bruce Baumgartner.
An NCAA crown, countless Invitational titles, eight
Midlands Tournament championships. World Cup honors, the
World Championship title and ultimately, the gold medal at
the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
It dll sounds very familiar to those fortunate enough
to know the "gentle giant.""
As assistant wrestling coach for the Edinboro Uni­
versity Fighting Scots, Baumgartner has experienced success
as a coach and as an athlete. Around here, he will never be
taken for granted.
"I am just thankful we have Bruce here right now,"
James McDonald, Edinboro athletic director said. "Edinboro
University - not just the Edinboro wrestling program - is a bet­
ter place because of Bruce Baumgartner."
A given fact in the world of athletics is that it is very
difficult to repeat This is the task that lies ahead for Baum­
gartner. The '84 games are still very fresh in everyone's mind,
but Baumgartner seemingly feels no pressure.
"I know who my stiffest competition will be; there
are no surprises ahead for Bruce Baumgartner," Bruce com­
mented. "Aslan Khadartsev of the Soviet Union will likely be
my main roadblock to the gold." Baumgartner lost to Khadart­
sev in the 1987 World Championships, but avenged the loss a
week later in dual meet competition. His mark against the
Soviet stands at 1-1. "The loss may have been good in a way,"
Bruce said. "When you get the taste of defeat, it only makes
you hungrier. But I will not take my other competition lightly.
When you are wrestling at this level, they are all world-class
wrestlers."
Baumgartner's schedule is now devoted to training.
He has been working out nearly five hours a day for the last
few months and recently returned from the Olympic training
site in Colorado Springs. The sport of wrestling is simply sac­
rifice and Baumgartner has no problem with that
"I have always made Ae statement that I do not wres­
tle for the recognition, it is the drive and competitiveness that
comes from within that keeps me going. I will not become

Baumgartner recently captured the silver
medal at the 1988 Olympic Games in South
Korea. He won four matches and lost one, the
final to David Gobedjichvili of the Soviet
Union by the score 3-1.

Congratulationsf Bruce!

Greetings,
On behalf of the Board of Governors for the State System of Higher /
Education and the Office of the Chancellor, I am pleased to welcome you to
today's exciting athletic contest.
Athletics, as well as academic programs, play an important part in
reinforcing the skills and values needed to attain excellence. The ideas and
ideals learned in the athletic arena are often significant contributions to
success in the classroom.
The efforts of the young men and women who represent their universities
are commended. These students sacrifice and persevere for the privilege of
competing in intercollegiate sports.

GOLDEN EAGLES DOWN SCOTS 48-24
The Scots countered with a Darren Weber 42-yard
field goal, but Clarion answered right back with a 72-yard
scoring drive that ended with Emminger throwing his fourth
TD pass to Jerry Starr, a 21-yard completion that made the
score 35-9.
Ross finished up the third quarter scoring by taking
matters into his own hands and running 26 yards for a touch­
down and converting the two point conversion on another run
to make the score Clarion 35, Edinboro 17 heading into the
final quarter.
The final quarter saw Clarion score twice and Cleve­
land Pratt haul in a 15-yard TD pass from Scot backup QB
Hal Galupi to make the final score Clarion 48, Edinboro 24.
The story of the game was the play of Eagle QB
Doug Emminger, voted PSAC Player of the Year last year.
Clarion's defensive secondary controlled Edinboro for the
most part, keeping the tandem of Ross and Galupi in check.
Final passing stats of 6 for 13 for 148 yards and one intercep­
tion told the tale as Clarion was able to defense Edinboro's
most potent weapon. The loss dropped Edinboro to 2-5 overall
and 0-3 in the PS AC-West. Clarion upped theii; record to 4-2
and 3-1 in the conference.

The seventh week of the season saw a 2-4 Edinboro
unit travel to Clarion's Memorial Stadium to take on rival
Clarion in a PS AC-West grudge match. What followed was an
offensive showcase by last year's PSAC Player of the Year.
Despite the performance of running back Elbert Cole,
who rushed for 75 yards on just 12 carries, the Scots fell to
Clarion by a score of 48-24. Eagle quarterback Doug
Emminger lit up the Scot defense for 296 yards passing, com­
pleting 23 of 32 attempts and tossing four touchdown passes.
Emminger started early for Clarion. After the 'Boro
was forced to punt on the opening offensive possession of the
game, the Eagle QB drove his team 76 yards down field for
the opening score, the drive culminating in Emminger's 15yard touchdown pass to Tony Giavedoni.
Ron Urbansky caught the next Emminger TD pass, a
10 yarder that gave CUP a 14-0 lead. Clarion added a Keith
Powell one-yard run with just 15 seconds left in the half to
make the score 21-0. With only a couple ticks left on the
clock, it appeared the Scots were going to head into the half­
time locker room down by 21. Enter 'Boro QB Jim Ross. On
the last play of the half Ross took the snap from center and
launched a rocket down the field to Ernest Priester for an 80yard touchdown pass. The PAT failed, and the Scots were still
in the game, down 21-6 at the half.
The second half started with the play that halted any
momentum that Ross' pass may have given Edinboro. On the
opening kick-off. Eagle Sean Morrissy took the kick and pro­
ceeded to hand off to teammate Brenuan Nair on a reverse.
Nair scampered up the field 55 yards to give the Eagles the
ball on the Scot 31. From there, Emminger took control and
fired up his third TD pass to Bob Quinn.
