Humm. . . will be pressured by the No. 1 defense again Saturday.
Nebraska signed 1 7 more high school football players and one
junior collegian to national letters of intent to attend the
University Wednesday. The Metropolitan Conference in
Omaha and the California prep ranks tied for the most men as
each provided four gridders.
Line help for the future should come from Omaha
standouts Archie Gray of Benson, George Mills from Bishop
Ryan, Central's Jerry Lloyd and Creighton Prep's Tim
McGuire. Mills, Lloyd and McGuire all weigh 225 or above
while Gray tips the scales at 190.
Frank Mazon, Larry Mushinskie. Dana Potter, and Jim
Miller will all leave the West coast for Nebraska next year.
Mazon was the freeway player of the year playing for
Anaheim last season, an honor earned the year before by
present Cornhusker Glen Garson.
Another back, Mushinskie was player of the year in
California's AA division. He will play in California's
North-South Shrine game along with quarterback Potter. The
5-1 1 Potter threw for more than 3,000 yards last year while
being named co-player of the year in the Los Angeles City
League.
The 6-3, 230 pound Miller from Costa Mesa is the son of
Jake Miller, a former coach in the Nebraska high school ranks.
Harbor Junior College provided Nebraska with Bob
Thorton, a 6-3, 180 pounder who was named all-league at both
receiver and defensive back last year. He will join ex-teammate
Dick Rupert with the Cornhuskers.
Burton Burns from St. Augustine High School in New
Orleans, a 5-11, 210 pounder also signed with the Huskers
Wednesday. Burns had been under pressure from Louisiana
governor John McKiethen to stay in Louisiana to play for
Louisiana State University.
Intrasquad
game
climaxes
spring
practice
by JIM JOHNSTON
Sports Editor
The residents of Schramm
IV can't decide which team to
cheer for in Nebraska's spring
intrasquad game at 1 :30 p.m.
Saturday.
Starting quarterbacks Jerry
Tagge and David Humm, both
residents of Schramm IV, will
be on opposite sides. Perhaps
the floor cheering section
could back both offensive
units. . . hoping Tagge and
Humm both have good days in
directing the offense.
But there's a problem about
that solution. Corncrback Jim
Anderson and monster man
Dave Mason will be starting for
the No. I defensive unit to
oppose Humm. And you
guessed it. They both live on
Schramm IV.
An even more delicate
situation will be taking place
when Taggc's No. 1 offensive
unit is on the field.
Pat MoreH, who rooms with
Tagge, will be starting at
linebacker to oppose Tagge's
unit. The Schramm IV football
fans, all things considered, will
probably have to watch on a
neutral basis.
The cards are stacked in
favor of the Red team which
includes the No. 1 offensive
and defensive units.
Tagge, who directed
Nebraska to an Orange Bowl
win and received MVP honors
for his effort, will quarterback
9 veteran backiield which
includes All Big Eight
wingback Johnny Rodgcrs and
two-year I-back leader Jeff
Kinney.
Bill Olds and Jim Carstens,
who have beea battling all
spring for a starting role, will
alternate aft faack with the
FRIDAY, MAY 7, 1971
first team. Redshirt Dave
Goeller will join Kinney at
I-back.
Tagge has an abundance of
receiving talent to work with.
Joining Rodgers in the
receiving department will be
split end Woody Cox. Cox
alternated with all-time
receiving leader Guy Ingles
last season.
While Humm will also be
working with some talented
receivers, the lefthanded
sophomore may find passing a
more difficult task. Neither
offensive line has been able to
contain the defense this season.
And Humm's White team will
be working against the rugged
No. 1 defensive line.
That defensive line is led by
two-year letterman Larry
Jacobson at tackle and junior
right end Willie Harper. Monte
Johnson, who worked at
middle guard most of the
spring will start at the other
tackle spot and Rich Glover
will start at middle guard.
John Hyland stepped into
the No. 1 left defensive end
position this week and will
remain there for Saturday's
intrasquad game.
Starting for the Red team at
linebacker will be Bill Sloey,
Jim Branch and veteran Bob
Terrio. Joining Anderson in the
all-veteran defensive secondary
will be Joe Blahak and safety
Bill Kosch.
Humm's offensive backficld
lacks much of the veteran
touch, but an impressive crop
of newcomers will be trying to
prove their ability against the
No. 1 defense.
Randy Butts, who has had
an outstanding spring, will join
junior college transfer Gary
Dixon at I-back. Lincoln
sophomore Maury Damkroger
and redshirt Ralph Powell will
be at fullback.
Two-year letterman Jeff
Hughes will get the nod at
wingback and sophomore Jeff
Hill will provide depth at that
position. Frosty Anderson and
Max Linder will be working
with Humm's unit at splitend.
Student spring all-sports
tickets will not be honored for
the spring game. Admission
price is two dollars.
