Walz SPORTSWHIRLED The New York Giants surprised everybody a few years ago when they tabbed unheraldPrince Valiant-typed Phil Simms, a quarterback from unknown Morehead State U. in Kentucky. Coach Ray Perkins obviously knew what he was doing since Simms has shown he has unlimited potential which could pay off in a big way next year. The Grnts, riddled by injuries throughout most of the season, performed admirably with a squad full of rookies, has beens, and free agents. Perkins, who will have the opportunity to draft a game breaking running back, is in an envious position. His rookies have gained valuable experience, while most of his veterans will return next year. With a good draft, who knows what miracle will occur in the Meadowlands next year. By the way, Perkins also has a talented back-uQB in Scott Brunner, from little known Delaware State U. as well Speaking of unheard of colleges who produce pros, it will be interesting to see how the first couple of rounds in the NFL draft will develop. Purdues Mark Herrmann slacked off considerably during the last few months, while Nicky Hall of Tulane, Ed McMichael of Rutgers and Neil Lomax of Portland State received rave reviews. Lomax is considered the best of the unknown QB lot. As far as tailbacks are concerned, who knows if the Citadels Stump Mitchell will be given serious consideration. At only five foot nine inches the pros might shy away from the stellar collegiate back. Other backs to look out for are Yale's Rich Diana, James Brooks of Auburn and Gerald Willhite of San Jose State. As for unknown pass receivers, how about the whole receiving corps at Portland State. Somebody had to catch Neil Lomax's passes. blond-haire- Audrey Hepburn, Ben Gazzara. President ot an international O entire empire hangs in the balance. (Repeat) ENGLISH in styles.
