Nebraska’s Phillips deserves fair shake
David
Winder
Sportswriter
F irst, University of Ne
braska running back
Lawrence Phillips is
dismissed from the football
team for assaulting his ex
girlfriend, a fellow Nebraska
student. Then, Nebraska
Head Coach Tom Osborne de
cides “dismissed” really
means indefinite suspension,
and allows Phillips to stay on
the team.
While Osborne keeps flip
flopping on Phillips’ eligibili
ty, a court of law has still not
decided if a crime was even
committed. If a crime was
committed though, why is Os
borne and not the Nebraska
administration taking action?
It seems Osborne is throw
ing Phillips off the team for
an offense the university has
deemed not harsh enough to
throw someone out of school
for. If anyone should decide
the fate of Phillips, it should
be the Nebraska administra
tion, not Osborne. When did
the football coach get more
authority than the college
president?
When it comes to the as
sault of another college stu
dent, the university should be
the one making the decisions.
The football coach should
make decisions only when a
player has broken a team
rule. A player skipping class
is the coach’s problem while
an assault involving a player
is the university’s problem.
If Nebraska thinks that
Phillips should be kicked out
of school for the apparent as
sault, then he should be off
the football team. If the uni
versity sees nothing wrong
with Phillips’ actions, then
neither should Osborne.
It’s also strange that Os
borne decided to kick Phillips
off the team when two other
Nebraska players have court
dates.
Receiver Riley Washington
has been charged with at
tempted murder, yet he still
practices with the team. Run
ning back Damon Benning
was arrested for assault the
same weekend as Phillips,
but he will take Phillips’
starting job in this weekend’s
game.
If the other players are
considered innocent until
proven guilty, why not
Phillips? Does Osborne get to
be judge, jury and execution
er for all his players?
The truth is the University
of Nebraska is acting in its
students’ best interests if it
allows players to assault oth
er students with no penalty.
Tom Osborne is not being fair
to his players if he kicks
them off the team before they
go to trial.
Lawrence Phillips should
have never been kicked off
the team and should be play
ing this weekend. His fate in
an assault case should not be
decided by Osborne.
Tulsa needs perfect execution for win
□ Tulsa is coming off a
come-from-behind victo
ry over Oklahoma State.
By Nick Georgandis
The Battalion
To hear Texas A&M Head
Football Coach R.C.Slocum tell
it, the Aggies are going to be fac
ing one of the top offenses in the
country Saturday against Tulsa
University.
They’re going to spread out
all over the field,” Slocum said.
“They’re going to line up with no
backs in the backfield or with
backs going in motion out of the
backfield.
“Those types of plays worry
me because you’ve got to get to
the line of scrimmage quickly
and read what type of offense
they are running.”
However, to hear Tulsa’s
starting quarterback Troy DeGar
tell it, the Golden Hurricane will
need perfect execution from start
to finish to have a shot at defeat
ing the Aggies on Kyle Field.
“When you play A&M, you
have to bring all your guns,” De-
Gar said.
“We need
to get
something
going early
and keep
up the mo
mentum.”
The
Golden
Hurricane
should
have plen
ty of mo
mentum coming into the game.
Last week, Tulsa trailed Okla
homa State 23-3 with 10 minutes
left in the game. DeGar, who had
been benched earlier in the
game, threw three touchdown
passes in the final 10 minutes to
lead Tulsa back for a 24-23 win.
DeGar said although the team
was thrilled with the victory —
after opening the season with a
miserable 37-5 loss to Baylor —,
the players must focus on the
task at hand.
“That OSU
game was
amazing,” De
Gar said. “But
we have to
put it behind
us now. The
guys down
here definitely
know we have
challenge
"They(Tulsa)
are going to
spread out all
over the
field.."

going up to A&M with the kind
of team they’ve put together
this season.”

little success in recent seasons,

many Aggie supporters re
member the Golden Hurricane
from 1991. That year, A&M
went to Tulsa and built up a
28-10 halftime lead before
starting quarterback Bucky
Richardson got hurt.
In the second half, the Golden
Hurricane came alive and ended
up defeating the Aggies 35-34,
A&M’s only regular-season loss
that year.
Two years later, A&M beat
Tulsa 19-9 at Kyle Field, but the
Golden Hurricane led at halftime
and stayed in the game until the
final moments of the fourth quar
ter.
“Coach (Dave) Rader really
has not harped on the ’91 game,”
DeGar said. “None of the guys
that were in that game are still
here. In 1993, we played well,
but we still got beat. But this is a
new team now; it’s our time to go
after A&M.”
