Buskers look at 'young' season
To say that the Nebraska men'a basketball team this
year will be young, would be a definite understatement.
Last year's team that finished 1413 overall and 7-7 in
the Big Eight (fifth place) lost four senior starters. They
are the same starters that in 1978 at juniors led the
Huskers to 1 22-8 overall record and to the quarterfinals of
the National Invitational Tournament.
( This year, the Huskers will return two starters, both
juniors, 6-7 centerforward Andre Smith and 6-0 guard
Mike Naderer. They will be assisted by lettermen, 6-6
senior forward Mark McVicker and sophomore lettermen,
guards, 6-3 Ray Collins and 6-9 Jack Moore.
Smith, who could be one of the country's best forwards
this year might have to play center this season according
to Head Coach Joe Cipriano.
Last year Smith earned second team UPI and All Big
Eight honors and led the team scoring and was No. 2 in re
bounding. Cipriano said that because of last year's player loss,
Smith might have to be moved.
Although small for a center, Smith's agility underneath
the basket ranks him with the best of the big men par
ticularly, against a zone defense, Cipriano said.
Naderer, in 1977-78, was a part-time starter who attain
ed full-time status last season. Last year Naderer averag
ed 6.0 points and 1.6 rebounds a game.
The two starters, with the help of the five lettermen and
two squadmen, must fill the shoes of W center Carl
McPfce, 6-0 guard Brian Banks, 6-3 forwardguard Bob
Moore and 6-8 forward Curt Hedberg.
McPipe and Banks were three-year starters and Banks
earned first team All Big Eight honors in 1978. Moore was
a two-year starter, and Hedberg was a full-time starter
last year.'
Nebraska will also take a strong look at its recruits from
this season, according to Cipriano.

Farlane from Plattsmouth. Also sicmin were: 6-10 center

Vero Beach, Fla. (AP)-Ed Burns says
being a third-string quarterback is not a
bad job, when the alternative is finding
another line of work.
Burns was to start for the New Orleans
Saints Saturday when rookies and under
experienced veterans met their counter
parts on the Miami Dolphins' preseason
training camp outside Miami
Burns, challenged by rookie free-agents
David Spriggs and Tom Rozantz, knows
that his chance for another year in the Na
tional Football League may depend on
whether he's impressive Saturday.
"All three quarterbacks will play," said
Coach Dick Nolan. "We just want each of
them to get enough to show what they can
do."
He said as many as 15 players could be
sent home after he and his staff review
films of the scrimmage.
"I have to do enough to show them that I
didn't just stand still last year," Burns
said. "I've been here a year, so I should be
ahead of the rookies.
He was third-string quarterback
through his career at Nebraska, but his
strong arm won him an invitation to the
Saints training camp last year. His raw
ability impressed the coaches, so they kept
him on the squad as a backup to Archie
Manning and Bobby Scott
He said he's confident that hell be a
starter in the NFL some day, either with
the Saints or another team. "I don't know
that TO ever get in the position where I
say, "Play me or trade me,' but I guess 111
think of that on down the line. I have con
fidence that I can be a professional
quarterback and I think the coaches do,
too."
