Vanatta's
MU Team
Needs Win
Missouri, who is Nebraska's
next cage opponent, may be
seeking to beat Nebraska out
of the Big Eight cellar. Last
year, Coach Bob yanatta's Ti
gers did it
Vanatta saw his fast-pace
offense wither before Nebras
ka hustle in the teams' first
meeting this year. The Husk
ers won, 72 to 69.
Two days later, on January
13, the Tigers of Columbia
were smothered by resurgent
Colorado. The loss left the Ti
gers with a 1-1 record com
pared with the Scarlet 2-1
mark.
This year, the Huskers have
the edge and can keep it on
their basketball date with
Missouri a week from Satur
day in Columbia.
Missouri's problem in Lin
coln last time around was an
inconsistent offense. Star back
court man Bob Price didn't
find range until late in the
game. Then Tiger ace Ray
Bob Carey hit a cold spell and
Mizzou hopes were lost
Nebraska's ball moving of
fense solved Vanatta's man-io-man
and riddled the visit
ing defense for a host of lay
ups and fast break shots, j
Vanatta probably hopes to
solve these problems and the
soft spoken mentor has the
credentials. In his 18th sea-;
son as a head baxketball
coach, but only his second at
Columbia, Vanatta sports one
of the nation's best coaching
records with a 74.3 percent-!
age 331 wins and 115 losses.
Vanatta has helped conduct
coaching clinics in 16 states
and has made three overseas
trips for the State Department
to participate in clinics.
In Vanatta's first year at
the Bengal helm, injuries to
two big men, and mid-season
ineligibility of a promising
sophomore, cut Missouri po
