Lewis, Gervin head Hall nominees
□ Jerry Tarkanian and
Jo Jo White area also
collegiate nominees.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (AP)
— Jerry Tarkanian, who has
the best won-loss record in col
lege coaching history and a
record of disputes almost as
long with the NCAA, was nom
inated for the Basketball Hall
of Fame.
Tarkanian, who came out of
retirement to coach Fresno
State, is one of five coaches, 14
players and one contributor
whose names were submitted by
a nominating committee for con
sideration by the Hall of Fame’s
Honors Committee.
Election requires 18 votes
from the 24-member committee.
Also on the list announced to
day were Texas-El Paso coach
Don Haskins, Houston coach
Guy Lewis, longtime college and
professional coach Tex Winter,
and Antonio Dias-Miguel, who
coached Spain’s National Team
for'27 years.
Nominated as players were
George Gervin, one of the
game’s most prolific scorers; Jo
Jo White, who
helped boost the
Celtics to two NBA
titles after star-
rixig at Kansas; de
fensive ace Dennis
Johnson and
David Thompson,
who led North
Carolina State to
the NCAA title in
1974 and then
starred for Denver.
Also nominated were Dick
Barnett, who won two NBA
championships with the New
York Knicks; Roger Brown, who
boosted Indiana to three ABA
titles, and two men — Gail
Goodrich and Jamaal Wilkes,
who starred for UCLA a decade
apart and then the Lakers.
Also approved by the nomi
nating committee were Larry
Costello, who played for 12
years with Philadelphia and
Syracuse before turning to
coaching, and two big centers —
Artis Gilmore a stand
out at Jacksonville
State before an 18-
year pro career and
the late Kresimir
Cosic, an internation
al star who played at
Brigham Young.
Nominated by the
veterans committee
were Arnie Risen, a
rugged rebounder who
helped boost
Rochester to the 1951 NBA title
and George Yardley, who in
1958 became the first player in
NBA history to score 2,000
points in one season.
Nancy Lieberman-Cline, an
Olympic silver medal winner at
age 17, led Old Dominion to two
national collegiate champi
onships and then became the
first woman to play in a men’s
professional league with the
Springfield Fame of the United
States Basketball League, was
tabbed by the women’s nominat
ing committee. Also nominated
was Carol Eckman, who started
the first national women’s colle
giate championship tournament
in 1969.
Tarkanian leads college
coaches with an 83.7 winning
percentage over 24 seasons at
Long Beach State where his
teams were 116-17 and at the
UNLV where he had a 509-105
record and the 1990 NCAA title.
In 31 years of coaching at the
major and junior college level
he has never had a losing sea
son. Controversy and NCAA in
vestigations and allegations
that he at last bent the rules
have followed him from Long
Beach to UNLV and now to
Fresno.

every Thursday before a game
and chat with R.C. But the
men can bring their wives one
night of the year. Oh what
a privilege.
It is assumed that members
of the Quarterback Club know
that there are 11 players on the
team, just because they are
men. Demonstrations of forma
tions and pertinent informa
tion, such as the fact that the
referee is the one who has a
white hat on, are not discussed
because, of course, men know
these things.
While I will admit that I did
learn a few things that I did
not already know about, there
are a few men who I can think
of who could have learned
something new last night as
well. I am sick and tired of be
ing singled out as needing some
extra assistance in learning
about football just because I am
a woman.
When Slocum opened]
floor to questions, the questio
that the women asked
were quite intelligent. It sou
ed like they knew a thingJ
two about football. F
Can you imagine if they]
a Chalk Talk fc*' men so tin
they could learn about
art of cleaning a bathroo
Have Donna Reed come in i
teach men how to clean a toil]
and bathtub.
Many men know how
clean a bathroom and wouldi
insulted if Reed showed the
how to lift the seat befoi
cleaning the toilet.
All I’m saying is that if J
are going to hold a ChalkTall
invite anyone who wantsito-
learn more about football. Dorif^
single out a specific gro/ol.
and assume that they don^
know anything and therefor
must be taught. ;
Give women a little creditl
We do know something abonilk,
football and sports. If we war
to learn more, then we don
need to be taught like we 3^7
the biggest idiots in the world-
world.
