Fischer witnessed Big Red football revolution
By Bob Cuilinan
Cletus Fischer has witnessed
the revolution in the Nebraska
football program. During his 15
years on the Cornhusker staff,
he has ScGn the chants irom a
mediocre Big 8 team to a
perennial national contender. ,
, Fischer came to Lincoln in
1960 after he had coached
highgbftool and small college
A teams M;the midwest. He was
' wA&iire&s dV' offensive and
defensive baCKfeld coach, main-
Ja t ly because of a troublesome

running pace,

A uminn RrtimH ' mncitlv froehmon and "N
sophomores, makes up Coach Frank
Sevigne's university cross country team.
The distance runners, paced by returning
sophomore letterman Keith Whitaker, will
open their 74 season on the road in a contest
with the University of Wisconsin Sept? 28.
"As of yet, the season outlook is
questionable," Sevigne said. Kiye have a
young squad with good talent, but at this
stage of the game it's too early to say'.4,V4
The runners practice every afternoon at
Pioneer Park. They are improving but still
have adjustments to make, Sevigne added.
"Time will tell," hesaid.
Keith Whitaker, Leif Olson, Bob Fink,
Matt Reckmeyer, Harold Stelzer, Dave
Johnston, and Don Grow will try for starting
positions, Sevigne said. Whitaker and
Reckmeyer are sophomores and Johnston is a
junior.
X The rest of the squad is-first year men.
Sevigne said he plans to use combinations
of the first seven men until definite starters
can be established.
Four duals, on&jppen date and the Big 8
meet make up iirie season s schedule:
Sept2j$iscoil?,away; Oct. 5, Kansas
State, licfme; Oct. 12 MJ-louri, home; Oct. 19
Dake, away; Oct. 6, open date; and Nov. 2
Blg-0iCohference Meet at Ames, Iowa.
That player was his younger
brother Pat, who had given the
Nebraska staff a headache the
previous season (1959).
"Pat was pretty feisty then,"
Fischer said. "At the time, the
staff felt he was one of their best
players, and they expected more
from him. They thought i could
give him the help he needed.
Pat Fischer became a great
football player, Fischer said. He
went on to start with tbT
Washington Redskins of fM.
Offensive formationsthen
were different than they are
today. The Husker squad used
the split-T and double-wing
formations under Head Coach
Bill Jennings.
Fischer said he recalls the job
of assistant coach as being
tougher then because of a rule
that made players play both
. of fense and defense.
"You could have had a boy
who was a great tight end, but
not as good a defensive end, but
because of the rule, he had to
play both ways," he said. "A lot
more time was spent on defense
then."
The rule change allows play
ers to play on either offensive or
defensive squads.
"I think football is more
exciting with the advent of the
two-platoon system," Fischer
said. "Because of it, the North
ern schools were able to catch up
to those in the southwest and
southeast part of the country.
Fischer was
coach whe-Bob Devaney 'Ss
sumed thftfcss&ip&l'h
retained asjc,
s-
e
ft
watched and helped Devaney
, reverse the "low ebb" of the
.Nebraska football program.
"He (Devaney) got the overall
oroaram coing. He brought back
the" feeling" and the" spirit
throughout Nebraska," Fischer
said.
Devaney changed the
coaches' positions on the coach
ing staff, and Fischer became
head freshman coach in the '60s.
In two seasons at that job, he
guided the frosh to an 8-0-0
recprd.
! He later returned to the
varsity staff as kicking coach. In
1973 he became offensive line
coach when coach Carl Selmer
left for Miami University. That
year was also the first season for
Tom Osborne as head coach.
Fischer said the change in
the football team is obvious to
the fan, who is happy when the
team wins more games. But the'
biggest change has come in the
attitude of the players and staff.
"Everybody had a great deal
more respect for each other after
Devaney came," he said. "The
total atmosphere was much
more relaxed."
The coaching staff has been
given more freedom to make
decisions for the team, he said.
"You're expected to do your
job, and it's left up to you to get
it done.
"We expect our people to be
the best on the field, and. we ,
expect them to play like they're
the best," Fischer said. "In
turn, they expect us to be fair
with them."
