    Vol. I, No.8 The Monthly Newsmagazine Of Boise State University Boise, Idaho April, 1976 Budget: Won Some LostSoine It was a "won some, lost some" result for Boise State University when the State Board of Education put its final stamp on the school's operating budget allocation from state tax funds April 1 in Pocatello. BSU got an eleven percent allocation increase for 1976-77, a total of $13.7 million. That compared to $12.3 million this year, and it is the highest percent­ age increase awarded among the three universities. The allocation still left BSU far behind the University of Idaho in total budget allocation dollars. UI received a $22.6 million allocation, compared to $21.5 million in its current budget. Thus, UI gets a five percent allocation increase. Idaho State University was awarded $15.5 million for fiscal 1976-77, a seven percent increase over the $14.4 million in its current budget.

  • Mm Wm Smbsmm&
    mm 3sj££jp§|£ wm -A: . .--. y^"1- SMBsMM& Competition, is the spice of life! Everyone at one time in their life thrives on some kind of competition whether academic or athletic. This sec­ tion is a tribute to those people who com­ bine both. Individuals who go out for an athletic team deserve this recognition whether they are the stars or the average player as they all have one thing in com­ mon , the desire to achieve. This desire is spreading not only in athletics but also in the school itself, for Boise State Uni­ versity is not only becoming a represent­ ative of Boise City, but also the entire state of Idaho. I would like to thank the graduating sen­ iors for installing this desire to achieve into the new members of the teams. it is my hope and prayer that this desire is passed on with added enthusiasm to grow bigger and stronger along with the achievements of Boise State Athletics Brad Allred Coming From All Walks Of Life, The University Bound Us Together So That We Must Develop Our Lives Into A Sharing Experience 17 Bronco Football 1976 The football season of 1976 will long be remembered in the minds of a lot of people. New head coach Jim Criner will always remember his first year at Boise State. The players will remem­ ber a year of dedication, learning a new system, and frustation. The fans will remember a year of curiosity and doubt. But the last games proved to players and fans that Jim Criner is a great coach and his new system will work given the chance and the time.

  • Football 1976-86
    --------------------------- THE MANE ATTRACTION Football 1976-86 In early 1976, Nevada-Las Vegas offered head foot­ ball coach Tony Knap a package he couldn't refuse. That lured the popular Knap away and left BSU looking for a new coach for the first time since becoming a four­ year school. Enter jim Criner, an assistant under Dick Vermeil for Rose Bowl champion UCLA. Thus began Criner's career as head football coach at BSU. The first season started on a frustrating note as players adjusted to a new system. The team posted a 5- 5-1 record. The Broncos switched from Knap's wide open passing attack to a tailback-oriented !-formation attack on offense, and Fred Goode became Boise State's record holder for most yards gained in a single season (716). A sophomore, Goode surpassed the old single­ season mark set by Abe Brown in 1969. Dee Pickett and Greg Stern quarterbacked the Broncos, aided by Terry Hutt, Mike Holton and Mitch Britzman and key defen­ sive players Sam Miller, Chris Malmgren, Vince Mendiola, Lester McNealy, Ken West, Kirk Strawser, Kauhi Hookano and Gary Rosolowich. The year began auspiciously with a game-opening Above: Glenn Sparks 1 00-yard kickoff return by Idaho. The Broncos and Vandals played to blocks lor Fred a standoff after that. Goode rambled for 146 yards, but Idaho prevailed Goode. Center: Terry Hutt. Below: Willie 16-9. However, the season finished with signs of things to come, as the Beamon. Below left: Broncos blanked Idaho State 36-0 and pounded Weber State 56-31.
