First of all, I would like to welcome all the new students to High Point College!! Seeing the excitement in your eyes makes me remember my first day at High Point. I was petrified when 1 went to my first class and saw that sea of unfamiliar faces. But, over the next month or so, all the walls that seemed to Letters To The Editor: separate those students broke down and the fright turned to anticipation of the upcoming year and all the new friendships to be made. 1 would also like to welcome back all the returning students, the seasoned veterans of HPC. Support The Honor Code Because of your years at HPC, 1 ask you to help these new students in Last year, an Honor Code Committee was formed. Six students were appointed to this experiencing everything that High Point college has to offer. High Point is a committee and were given the challenge and the opportunity to draft an honor code that would in great school because our students make it that way. turn be endorsed and enforced by the student body. This honor code is almost complete. When 1 have talked to different people about college, they ask what is the I am coming to you, as SGA President, with a request. This request is for your support in the best advice that you can give a student. I always say, very simply, "GET implementation of our student-developed honor code, lask for your support for many reasons, but INVOLVED!!!" the most important reason is that of fear.

It is wonderful to see the High Point Robert W. Combs II College campus expand and grow to accommodate the number of future students at High Point Editor College. But, I am appalled at the lack of environmental consciousness. Driving along West College the other day seeing the number of trees that had been cut down made me angry. But before I got defensive, I wanted to know if High Point College was going to replace the trees. When I spoke with Dr. Epperson, he informed me that the school had no plans to THE HI-PO established 1926 replace the trees, with the exception of some landscaping. I feel that it is the school's duty to replace the trees now, whether here or somewhere else, so Robert W.

He’s the only coach with at least 200 NFL wins in the regular season who isn’t in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Marty made bad teams good, and good teams better over the course of a coaching career that lasted more than 30 years. He has a better winning percentage than Chuck Noll, Tom Landry and Marv Levy – all Hall of Famers. “He not only won everywhere he went, but he won immediately everywhere he went,” wrote Ernie Accorsi in the forward to Schottenheimer’s autobiography. “That is rare, believe me.” The blemish in his resume is that he didn’t win the next-to-last game of the NFL season, let alone the last game. The easy comparison is to Chuck Knox, another fine coach from Western Pennsylvania who won a lot of games but never took that last step either. In other words, Schottenheimer never made it to a Super Bowl as a head coach. Even so, he ranks with the best in the coaching business in his time.

Hamerla © Copyright by CHRISTOPHER R. DAVIS 2014 All Rights Reserved. Acknowledgements In many ways, this dissertation represents the culmination of a lifelong passion for both sports and history. One of my most vivid early childhood memories comes from the fall of 1972 when, as a five year-old, I was reading the sports section of one of the Dallas newspapers at my grandparents’ breakfast table. I am not sure how much I comprehended, but one fact leaped clearly from the page—Nebraska had defeated Army by the seemingly incredible score of 77-7. Wild thoughts raced through my young mind. How could one team score so many points? How could they so thoroughly dominate an opponent? Just how bad was this Army outfit? How many touchdowns did it take to score seventy-seven points? I did not realize it at the time, but that was the day when I first understood concretely the concepts of multiplication and division. Nebraska scored eleven touchdowns I calculated (probably with some help from my grandfather) and my love of football and the sports page only grew from there.

(Used by permission of Cliff Brunt) Is Michigan’s Denard Robinson the best running QB in college history? By CLIFF BRUNT Indy Sports Legends Editor Watching Denard Robinson run is a thing of beauty. The Michigan quarterback set the NCAA record for yards rushing by a quarterback in a single season in 2010, and he‘s nearing former West Virginia quarterback Pat White‘s record for career yards rushing by a quarterback. But how great is he? A strong performance Saturday at Notre Dame could push him to the front of the ―greatest of all time‖ debate among running quarterbacks. He‘s got the numbers. Now, he‘s got the stage. First of all, some perspective. I get goose bumps when I watch a great running quarterback. I grew up in Omaha, Nebraska in the 1980s, during the height of the wars between Nebraska coach Tom Osborne and his nemesis, Oklahoma‘s Barry Switzer.

    Journal of Issues in Intercollegiate Athletics, 2018, 11, 51-74 51 © 2018 College Sport Research Institute Renown to Rubble: The Rise and Fall Of Pitt Stadium 1925-1999 __________________________________________________________ Chad Seifried Louisiana State University Jim Evans The Ohio State University Allison Mosso Louisiana State University __________________________________________________________ This paper traces the evolution of Pitt Stadium from 1925 to 1999 and highlights critical figures and events in the financing and construction of the venue, details renovation efforts, and presents information, which led to its abandonment and subsequent demolition. Pitt Stadium, like other campus stadia, was built to open untapped reservoirs of alumni donations, increase revenues, and enhance “brand awareness” to improve student enrollments, the overall campus experience, and help the school “climb” the ladder of institutional reputation. Yet, image attacks regarding the perceived professionalization of college football, internal tension, the Great Depression, poor scheduling, and lack of spectator and player amenities contributed to the failure of the building to pay off its debt and subsequent dissatisfaction among various stakeholders. Although the University ultimately abandoned Pitt Stadium when it was no longer commercially viable, the school’s attempts to use on-campus athletics to secure important recognition as a major university are instructive for other institutions considering similar ideas.
