Roy Henry would also have had to beat out Joe Montana

for playing time in 1975. I am glad there wasn’t anyone else around to give Devine a reason not to play Montana

Didn’t Oliver Luck transfer from ND?


I recall Slager being a better tennis player than qb *

Montana could’ve come back under current redshirt ...

rules w/o burning a year of eligibility. He could have come off bench when Slager got hurt v. AL & then started next 2 games. Had he done well, Gator QB choice would have made an interesting call.

Slager riddled AL secondary in 1st half—ND led 21-7 & it could have been bigger. Play calling was more conservative in 2d half. Campus rumor was that Slager called audibles into passing plays in 1st half & Devine told him there would be no 2d half audibles.

Lisch having 2 starts at end of 1976 season played role in his being named starter to start ‘77 season.


Remember Ozzie Newsome being a great player

This is either before or after the game in 1976. Bear is probably asking MacAfee why he didn't pick Bama. That is DE Bob Baumhower on the left.

Luther Bradley and Jim Browner had big INT's in the game.
