Ralston natives playing
'inspired' football at WSU
By Jeff Apel
Staff Reporter
Editor's note: This is the
second of an eight-part ser
ies. Tomorrow Iowa State.
Wichita State's John Hanel and
Bryan Schertz are playing inspired
football this season.
Hanel and Schertz, a pair of scho
larship freshman from Ralston, had
their high school football careers
abruptly ended when Ralston was
narrowly denied a spot in last year's
playoffs.
"We missed making the playoffs
by something like 10 points, so I'm
letting that experience inspire my
play this season," said Schertz, an
offensive tackle. I'm keeping that
experience in the back of my mind,
just because I don't want anything
like it to happen again."
This season, Schertz has spent
the better part of fall camp and the
early part of the Shockers' season
trying to learn the Wichita State
offensive formations.
Since the Shockers have no jun
ior varsity program, it's traditional
for freshman to spend their first
season working out with the varsity
in practice. But they rarely play in
any games.
"It's tough not playing all the
time, especially just coming out of
high school, where you are used to
playing a lot," Schertz said. "Not
getting to play is something I
expected though, because this is
this is major college football."
Hanel, a 6-1, 2 10-pound linebacker,
is just returning to practice after he
was sidelined with a knee injury
from the second day of fall camp.
Although the injury wasn't consi
dered serious, it was enough to
temporarily slow down the former
all-state, all-metro player who earned
six letters in football and track at
Ralston.
"My knee has been troubling me
some in the past, and the coaches
felt it might be best if we went
ahead and had it operated on,"
Hanel said. "I just returned to prac
tice (Monday), but I'm looking at
my comeback as a positive thing."
Hanel, who, along with Schertz,
said Nebraska really never showed
much interest in him, said he wasn't
discouraged by the fact that Wichita
State is just coming offatwo-yearpro-bation,
which was imposed by the
NCAA for alleged recruiting viola
tions. Please see WICHITA on 8

Osborne wary of mobile Duck passer
By Bob Asmussen
Senior Editor
Oregon quarterback Chris Miller will
present Nebraska with a different prob
lem than did Illinois' Jack Trudeau,
Nebraska coach Tom Osborne said. At
any time, Miller, unlike Trudeau, might
be going mobile.
Osborne, speaking at his Tuesday
press luncheon, said Nebraska had very
little concern with Trudeau taking off
and running. But Miller will be harder
to contain, he said.
"We always hate much more to see a
fine quarterback who can run," Osborne
said. "And Miller is also a very good
passer."
Oregon will go into Saturday's game
with a 2-1 record. The Ducks have
defeated Stanford and Washington State,
but lost at Colorado. The loss to the
Buffaloes was a game that the Ducks
could just as easily have won, Osborne
said.
"In many respects they deserved to
win the game," he said. "I think they're
a team that has an excellent chance to
do very well in their conference."
Osborne said Oregon has the best
skill position players that Nebraska
will have played this season. Besides
Miller, the Ducks are led by running
back Tony Cherry, fullback Kevin Will
hite and wide receiver Lew Barnes.
"The tailback, Cherry, is not very tall
and, in some ways, that works to his
advantage," Osborne said of Cherry,
who is 5-8. "Their fullback Willhite has
great speed and is a fine receiver. We
feel they've moved the ball better and
more effectively than any team we've
played to date."
Osborne said Nebraska came out of
the Illinois game with very few serious
injuries. It is still doubtful that defen
sive end Gregg Reeves will play in
Saturday's game at Memorial Stadium
since he didn't play against Illinois.
Osborne said defensive end Brad
Smith has a bruised hand, but that he
hopes Smith will be ready for Oregon.
Middle guard Phil Rogers might miss
the Oregon game because of a knee
strain, and offensive tackle Tom Welter
has turf toe.
"The injury situation is not too bad,"
Osborne said. "We came out of the Illi
nois game rather fortunate in terms of
injuries."'
