Revelle:
no future
in sitting
on bench
v.
Junior Bob Revelle, former Husker football
split end, shocked Big Red fans last week with
his decision to retire from collegiate
competition.
The 6 ft. 2 in., 196 lb. native of Gardena,
Calif, sat out the 1971 season after transferring
to Nebraska from the University of Southern
California after his freshman year.
Last autumn he took over as the No. 1 split
end in the second game and went on to become
a star receiver with 41 catches for 548 yards
ami four touchdowns. His mark was surpassed
only by Heisman Trophy winner Johnny
Rodgers.
This season, however, he has been playing
behind last year's second string receiver Frosty
Anderson.
"After our first game, I decided I would
observe my position objectively for a couple of
weeks, at which time I would reach a decision
as to my future. After that period, my status
had not improved. Seeing no future in sitting
on the bench, I did what I felt was right,"
Revelle said.
No single factor led to his decision of
quitting, he said. "It was simply a culmination
of things.

"I really love football and hope to continue
playing the game. I feel I have the confidence
and the ability to play as a professional," he
said.
"A person has pride. He simply cannot stand
idly by while someone jeopardizes that. One
must take a protective course of action," he
said.
He said most of his former teammates work
well together. However, in his three 1973
games, Revelle detected "a lack of team
inspiration" for two of the contests. "Any time
a team is not mentally up for a game, it's a
dangerous situation," he said.
"How good Nebraska really is remains to be
seen. The team has a tough schedule and if it is
to remain undefeated, it must play as well as I
think it is capable of," Revelle said.
With several close friends on the squad, he
said he hopes the Huskers have a spectacular
year.
"I could start striking out at some of the
fallacies I've read printed about myself in the
newspapers, but I just try to laugh them off. I
certainly don't want people thinking I'm bitter
about what happened," he said.

When Nebraska casts its vote
on Big 8 and National
Collegiate Athletic Assn.
(NCAA) rules regarding
athletic competition, the man
who serves as the Huskers'
voice is Keith Broman,
professor of finance in the
College of Business
Administration.
Broman is Nebraska's
faculty representative-the
school's voting delegate for all
NCAA and conference policy
decisions.
According to the faculty
representatives' constitution,
the job involves working for
' "faculty control of athletics."
This means working for
programs that will benefit the
entire university as well as the
athletic department, Broman
said.
He was appointed faculty
representative by UNL
Chancellor James Zumberge in
1971. He serves as a liaison
between the athletic
department, the administration
and the faculty, he said.
As Nebraska's
representative, he attends
annually four meetings of the
Big 8 faculty representatives
(he served as chairman of that
group last year) and the annual
NCAA meeting.
Ordinarily, the faculty
representative is his school's
only voting member in
conference or NCAA decisions,
he said. On questions oi
enforcement of rules or
penalties such as the recruiting
violation by Oklahoma last
year, the athletic directors of
each school also may vote, he
said.
Normal decisions involve
policies regarding eligibility
requirements, financial aid,
recruiting, practice rules and
athletic competition, he Mid.
Broman said he felt some of
the major proposals he has
been involved with during his
term as faculty representative
were ones to limit the number
of athletic scholarships per
school (which passed), to base
scholarships solely on financial
need (which failed) and this
summer's reorganization plan
that split the NCAA into three
autonomous divisions.
"It's a job that involves a lot
of detail," he said.
