It took time, that’s all, for Pipp to arrive

The way things are nowadays, it seems like the only word in a high school athlete's vocabulary is “more.” He not only wants a fall ride at the college of his choice, he practically wants to be guaranteed a starting position when he's | sophomore. Thus it is refreshing to ran across someone like Bill Pipp. No college scouts were banging on his door when he was graduated from Wawasee High School in 1969. He wasn't promised a scholarship, let alone a starting position. What Indiana University's John Pont gave Bill Pipp was a chance, and he took it “I always wanted to go to IU ever since I was a little kid anyway," Pipp explains. "Coach Pont made it sound like a good Idea to come out for football." It would be nice to say that Pipp arrived oo campus, jumped Into a football uniform, and proceeded to run around tackling everything in sight the fir A day of football practice. It would be nice to say that, but it wouldn't be true. "I moved around from defensive end to linebacker and back and forth,” he laughs now. "I guess I was sort of a scrub." . His sophomore season —1970 — was spent learning and bench, warming, and in that order. "I played about three minutes against Purdue and maybe 30 seconds against Michigan State," he says. "I never got discouraged, though. I talked to the coaches and they told me if I worked my way up, I’d play. They always gave me the benefit of a doubt.” By last spring, Pipp had worked his way up to No. 2 defensive end behind Larry Morwick, and when fall sessions began, he was put on tender at the closebtdouble sessions. He has his scholarship. \ 5 The starting job seem likely to come, however, with the veteran Morwick punnlpg ahead of him. But last Saturday against Kentucky, Morwick Was hurt on the opening kickoff, and Pipp was in the lineup for the day. “I was in on the kickoff and had just come off the field when they yelled for an end," Pipp recalled while getting ready for practice the other day. "So I was back in so fast it was just like it was practice. ;

Hurryin Hoosiers By J. Q. Fann

It was Hot Pants day in Bloomington, both on the field and off The sun was blistering and so was our defense but the offense was strictly a no-no. The last half defense was so good I have to talk about all of them It was as good as any half of defense I have seen in the last 25 years. 6 turnovers and no score McCullough showed why they say he may be an All-American. Joe Pawlitsch lived up to his balling before his injury two years ago, Debbout was the old pro at tackle, where he will now stay, our Wonderful Walk-On duet — Chuck Thompson and Bill Pipp were outstanding. Mike Fulk didn't

like the 2nd unit and came back vicious. Rob Spicer played an H E Double Toothpicks game, Soph Larry Wright doubled at cornerback and safety and Mike Heizman and Dan Lintner played fine as the other half of his alter ego at those positions. Jerry Johnson and Findlay had good games Three first downs in a half — and,such gang tackling. The offense gave the only score by allowing a punt runback to the two yard line. "’’On offense — we were exciting the last half with McNulty. He is exciting but threw 5 interceptions while Brown is dull but steady. 2 of McNulty’s interceptions were good passes that the receiver bobbled into the hands of the enemy, one was a gamble to win in the last two minutes, one was a bad pass and the other a great defensive play. The offensive line appears to be improving and Bill Geiger from the second unit acts like he expects to break in before the season goes much further. He converted from defense this year and it takes some time to learn offensive. The freshmen v played the J.V. and looked O K the J.V. team won but the, player of the game

fv pail Borden "I thought Larry would be back in and he did play a couple more series. I thought if we got in any trouble he’d be back in there. But then when we went back to the dressing room at halftime, I saw Larry undressing, and he said, "Well, you’re going to have to go the whde K game.’ That’s when 1 started getting scared. But by that time I had seen enough that I really wasn’t worried. If I w ould have known about it after the kickoff, I probably would have been scared to death.” Had to learn fast He should be so scared all the time. He recovered a Kentucky fumble in the first quarter and in general played one of the finest games a Hoosier defensive end has had in the last year or so. "We threw him in there and he learned fast,” points out defensive end coach Alan Voorhis. "In my mind there wasn’t any question that he would give 100 per cent all the way. The question in my mind was whether he would react properly to the situations he was in —and he did that "Our defense is designed for our ends and oqr tackles to keep our linebackers free. That was his job and that was what he did. Probably the finest job he did was keeping that big tackle off of Rob Spicer. He did that well and you see what happened to Rob Spicer. He got 16 tackles. And Pipp’sour finest pass rusher, too.” "He has so much energy,” adds Voorhis, "that he makes a lot

was Mike Flanagan who. if he had been receiving some of our passes on Saturday could well have turned the game completely around. Talk about AllAmerican candidates — talk' about Mike Flanagan and at least three or four others. One quarterback has thrown the ball 80 yards in practice scrimmage and does 40 yards on a clothesline, no rise or fall. The J.V. teams should beat freshmen and as for this game it was 16-14. Think of these things — 1. It was the best J.V. team LU. has had in many many years. 2. The frosh are just converting to collegiate football and haven't had any springzjvfundamentals. 3. The greenies had 4 quarterbacks a quarter each (the fifth is injured) and this does not give game continuity. It also took a varsity kicker — Chris Gartner — to kick the winning field goal. There were other boys from the J.V. team that played Sat.

of mistakes. He doesn’t know where to go, and he’s like a caged lion. But this is the part he’s improved on. He's learned to control his actions and he knows now where he can go and where he can’t go.” If Pipp seems like a man in a hurry, it's because he has some catching up to do. While most football players have at least two and sometimes three years of varsity high school experience — plus freshman and junior league programs — Pipp tad but one. "I went to a real small school and up to my senior year at Syracuse, we had only about 42 in my class,” he explains. "Then finally the school consolidated and we went up to 172 in my class and they started a football team. "At first though,. they didn’t know whether or not to let the seniors play since we never had before and they were afraid we might get hurt But they decided to let us play, and I got fired up about it and it’s been going up ever since." Lacked only experience The lack of experience, of course, held Pipp back at IU, or it at least meant he was giving the others a head start He always had promise, however. "We felt that here was a case where if a person sticks with it, he couldn’t help but improve,’’ says Pont "His only shortcoming was a lack of high school experience and playing time." "1 sure wish I could have had another year of high school ball,” agrees Pipp. He made up for that lack with his intense desire and determination. "He has the finest attitude on the team,” says Voorhis. "He came up to me last spring and said, "Coach, I don’t care about anything else, I just want to play football If I can’t help the team at end, I have other things I can da I just want to play.’ So I told him to just stay out here." That’s a decision that paid off Saturday. Like I said, in a day of dropouts, quitters, and complainers who seem to get all the attention, it’s nice to find a Bill Pipp around and successful.
