from The Stick
By Rick Akin
Thought we'd start this semester's column with a
little "Sing Along with Stick". This song is dedicated to
Jerry Bush and his Cornhusker cagers.
. This song can be sung to the tune of "Where Have
All the Flowers Gone" by the Kingston Trio.
Follow the bounding ball . . .
"Where have all the victories gone . . . long time
passing . . . Where have all the upsets gone . . . long
time ago. . Where have all the superstars gone . . .
not to NU, that's for sure . . . Will they ever come here .
if the Bear is still here."
And it's the Coliseum Bear that has been the topic
of conversation. Will Jerry Bush be around next season?
Now I have heard the blame being thrown entirely
on the Bear's efforts to produce winning basketball at
Nebraska.
This seems unfair to Coach Bush. In
the first place Nebraska high school bas
ketball leaves a lot to be desired which
leaves little to recruit from inside the
own state.
Bill Vincent is a good example. When
the Chief was in high school, he was hell
on wheels and tabbed as one of the greats.
But Vincent hasn't matched up to some
of the accomplishments that the specula
tors had in mind.

Nebraska gave Iowa State's
cagerS a battle for the first
fifteen minutes and then the
Cyclones raced to a convinc
ing 75 to 54 verdict over the
Huskers Monday night at the
Coliseum.
The Huskers bettered their

At the start of the second
half, Gary Kleven and Marv

outside, made five quick bas
kets to put the Huskers out
of the contest.

Secondly, a point which Wally Provost pointed out in
his column in the World Herald a few weeks ago seri
ously hampers Bear's chances for top notch players. Ne
braska spends less money than any other Big Eight school
for basketball scholarships.
And people complain about not having a good team
when XU can't even talk to terms with enuogh top rate
players to make it worthwhile.
It's simple arithmetic to see that without ENOUGH
good players a school is not going to have a good team.
And we know how the Huskers are doing in the Big
Eight race.
