million are under way or in the planning stages. In recent years, Morehead State's imaginative yet practical building pro­ gram has produced a series of design awards from the Kentucky Society of Architects. Dominating MSU's campus skyline are the two tallest occupied struc­ tures in Eastern Kentucky, 19-story l Cartmell Hall and 16-story Mignon Tower. Academically, the University is comprised of six schools-Social Sciences, Education, Applied Sciences and Tech­ nology, Humanities, Sciences and Mathe­ matics, and Business and Economics. They offer 145 programs of study from the associate degree through a joint doctoral degree. Almost 50 per cent of the faculty holds earned doctorates. Administratively, the University operates under a 10-member Board of Regents with eight citizens appointed by the governor of Kentucky. The two other seats are held by elected faculty and student representatives who hold full voting rights. The administrative structure consists primarily of four bureaus­ academic affairs, fiscal affairs, university and regional services and student affairs. Dr. Morris L. Norfleet, who took office Jan. 1, 1977, is MSU's eighth president. A graduate of Purdue Univer­ sity and the University of Kentucky, he joined the faculty and administrative staff in 1962 as director of student teaching. Athletically, the University sponsors a full program of intercollegiate sports for men and women.

4 '78 OUTLOOK Dwight Yarn (6-0, 185) and Tony Burton (5-8, 186) were impressive in spring drills. New prospects at tailback include Anthony (Bo) Dean (6-1, 170), Marcus Johnson (5-11, 185), and Bob Wood (5-11, 170). Fullback possibilities include Phil Dorn (5-11, 205), and Alan Mitchell (6-1, 190) and Bernard McIntosh (5-9, 180). DEFENSIVE LINE - Tackles Tommy Day (6-4, 238) and Matt Blair (6-2, 230) are returning starters and will form the nucleus of the interior line. Ends Rich Yeager (6-1, 190) and Dean Cvitkovic (6-4, 220) both saw considerable action last season. Horace Boswell (6-0, 226) a linebacker last season, could open at noseguard. Players who could see action this season are tackles Kevin Balduf (6-2, 244), Tim Brewer (6-2, 230), and Tony Payne (6-5, 235). Ends include Tom Goldsberry (6-0, 191) and Boyd Hippenstiel (6-4, 200). LINEBACKERS - With starters Tommy Warren (6-3, 210) and Rodney Jefferson (5-11, 192) returning, this position appears to be a strong one. Also in the picture could be Mark Dikeman (6-4, 218), Marc Kessler (6-3, 216), Jay Shippey (5-11, 200), and Greg Whited (6-3, 196). DEFENSIVE BACKFIELD - Four starters return to make this a team strength. Henry Sykes (5-9, 170) and T. A. Spalding (6-2, 196) return at the corners, with Julius Combs (6-1, 190) at monster and Greg Bright (6-0, 202) at safety. Duane Bland (6-0, 175) returns to add depth to cornerback. Others who could be a factor are Gernell Boyd (6-2, 170), Herb Noble (6-1, 190), Tom Proud (6-1, 190) and Carey Reid (5-10, 176). With only nine seniors returning from a 2-6-2 season, you KICKING - Tim Richey (5-9, 160), a freshman from Mt. might expect MSU Head Coach Wayne Chapman to be worried Dora, Fla} should get the nod as both punter and place kicker. about experience. He really isn't. Brad Marcilliat could back up in placements, while Phil Simms "We're still a young football team as far as age goes," he has punting experience. stated. "But we are a mature football team in experience." Thirty-six lettermen return from last year, including nine starters on defense and eight starters on offense. OFFENSIVE LINE - Guard Leon Cody (6-1, 230), tackle / Davey Locke (6-1, 235) and center Joe Huenefeld (6-2, 234) are the only returning starters. Others that saw action last season include center John Moses (6-3, 238), tackle Jim Urlege (6-1, 230), guard Brad Marcilliat (6-2, 224) and guard Ed Vorder­ brueggen (6-2, 215). Senior Ron Henke, (6-2, 216) a nose guard last season, has been shifted to offensive guard this fall. Also included, that could see action are Tony Cardwell (6-1, 230), Dean Copeland (6-2, 225), Tim Cruise (6-5, 240), Billy Goldsmith (6-3, 222), Marko Krautz (6-2, 220), Scott Krummel (6-2, 245), Bob Whitman (6-4, 225), Rich Zureich (6-3, 250), Keith Watts (6-1, 210) and Wayne Frost (6-3, 225). RECEIVERS - Receiver should be a strong suit for the Eagles this season, as last year's top two wide outs, Larry Campassi (5-9, 170), and Dorron Hunter (5-7, 176) return. Others who could see action at the position are Kenny Turner (5-8, 161) and Doug Joiner (5-10, 156.) Tight end is up for grabs, with Tim Devine (6-3, 196), Joe Sartini (6-2, 205) and Craig Black (6-5, 225) in contention. QUARTERBACK - Phil Simms (6-2, 215) last year's Ohio Valley Conference Offensive Player of the Year, returns for his senior season. Back up strength should come from Tommy Fox (6-0, 180), Ken Hopkins (6-3, 191), Greg Hall (6-1, 185), and Jim Wilson (6-0, 170). OFFENSIVE BACKFIELD - Only fullback Norman Letcher (5-11, 206) returns with any experience. Red-shirt tailbacks 5 Phil Simms Eagle All-America Candidate In a position not often associated with physical strength, Simms is an exception. At 6-2, 215, he is as big as many of the defenders trying to tackle him. "Phil's physical tools are as impressive as his mental toughness," said Chapman. "He has the natural ability to pick out second and third receivers." This year, Simms could become the MSU career leader in total offensive yardage, passes attempted and completed and touch­ down passes. His records already include most offensive plays in a season and passing yardage in a career. "I'm really looking forward to the upcoming season," stated Simms. "Our team should be much stronger and more mature. I really feel this is our year to be a factor in the OVC race."

Phil Simms is entering his fourth campaign as quarterback at Morehead State University, and all signs point to an even more successful year than 1977, when he passed for more than 2,000 yards and was voted the Ohio Valley Conference Offensive Player of the Year. MSU Head Coach Wayne Chapman feels that Simms claim to All-America honors is a real one. "Phil is a very quiet individual off the field, and you would never know how fierce a competitor he really is," Chapman stated. "His desire to win and compete is one of his outstanding attributes." He continued: "Phil is a quarterback who is a leader both on and off the field. Al l the players respect him because they know he will always give the team 100 percent."
