HALLUM STARTS THIRD SEASON
regional rival Eastern Kentucky and Jake Hal lum was one year ahead of the pledge he made in 1968 to build a winner in three seasons. He did it in only two.
The dedicated, enthusiastic Hallum had a hard luck 3-6-1 slate in his f irst ca mpaign and he vowed to make that his only losing season in college football coaching.
A South Carolina native who played line backer, defensive guard and defensive end at Newberry College, Hallum took the MSU football reins in early 1968 after a short but successful career as a high school head coach. He was named Kentucky's "High School Coach of the Year" in 1967 after leading Ashland Paul Blazer to the state championship with an 11 -1 mark. The 1966 Ashland squad was 7-5 in Hallum's first Eagle Head Coach John J. (Jake) Hallum year as head coach. is living proof that, contrary to the oft-quoted sports adage, nice guys don't always finish Before Ashland, Hallum was an assistant coach at Pickens, S. C. and Hopkinsville, last. Kentucky under Fleming Thornton, one of The 32-year-old grid mentor is among the nation's most successful high school the most popular figures on the MSU campus coaches. as he starts his third season at the helm.

He hard hitting, team effort football. is active in the Fellowship of Christian Ath Last year's squad turned in a winning letes and serves as an off-the-field counselor record (6-4) with a season-ending win over for his players and other students.
6 WAYNE CHAPMAN, Defensive Line Coach A former Eagle standout who returned to his alma mater as an assis tant coach in 1968, Coach Chapman is responsible for MSU's frontal defense, the line. The Barboursville, W. Va. native is well qualified as a college coach. He compiled a 30-6-2 mark in four seasons at Auburndale, Fla. Coach Chapman was a four-year starting tackle at MSU and was a two-time AII-OVC selection. In 1959 he was an honorable mention selec t ion for Little All America honors. Coach Chapman also has a master's degree from Morehead State.
LARRY MARMIE, Defensive Backfield Coach Coai:h Marmie brings an ideal background to the coaching of pass defense. He was a four-year starting quarterback at Eastern Kentucky University and is considered one of the best signal call ers in EKU history. The Barnesville, Ohio, native hopes to produce an All American defensive back this season in the person of Ron Gathright. The likable young Marmie came to MSU from Berea High School where he turned in an 11-8-1 record in two seasons as head coach.
RAY COBB, Defensive End Coach Youngest of the full-time Eagle assistants, Coach Cobb earned his spurs last year as MSU's chief scout. The 24-year-old Hopkinsville product played high school football under Jake Hallum and won All-State honors. A knee injury prevented a college grid career at Austin Peay and Cobb spent two seasons as an assistant at Hopkinsville and Christian County. He will continue to assist in scouting while coaching the defensive ends and linebackers. Coach Cobb has a master's degree from MSU.
7 JOHN BEHLING, Offensive Line Coach Coach Behling, the staff's most active recruiter, is starting his third year as the man responsible for finding operating room for t he Eagle offense. His offensive line was hurt by the loss of two standouts from last year but the optimistic Behling will find the answers. He came to MSU after a sparkling high school coaching career in Ohio, including Sandusky, Massillon and Fremont Ross. His college football was as a quarterback and end at Otterbein College. The Columbus, Ohio, product has a master's degree from Kent State.
DAN WALKER, Offensive Backfield Coach Coach Wa lker, who doubles as MSU's head wrestling coach, shows his exuberance by doing cartwheels along the sidelines during the game. As 1 4the man charged with developing a ground and air attack, Coach Wa lker last season surprised the opposition by producing a record-breaking passing and running game which helped carry the Eagles to a 6-4 record. A four-year letterman at Louisville, he came to MSU in 1968 after six years as football and wrestling coach at North Hardin High School. He was Kentucky's "wrestling coach of the year" in 1967.
BILL MARSTON, Graduate Assistant Coach Coach Marston silenced his critics last season as the Eagle quarter back led MSU to a 6-4 mark while shattering 22 team and individual records. The wiry Floridian accounted for 11 new marks himself in passing and punting. He had been criticized the year before when injuries hampered his throwing arm. An AII-OVC pick as a kicker in 1969, the newest assis tant will coach the Eagle wide receivers and punters while pursuing a mas ter's degree in business.

Gathright originally came to Morehead State to play football but gave up the sport in 1968 to concentrate on basketball. He was a fullback and linebacker in high school and in his first stint on the MSU gridiron. How ever, Eagle Defensive Backfield Coach Larry Marmie saw Gathright's natural basketball talents of speed, agility and jumping strength as perfect tools for a standout defensive back when "Big G" returned to foot ball in 1969.
