Thursday, November 29, 1M Sports Spindle Offensive Linemen Find They're Forgotten Men There n.ay be 20.000 fans in the stadium but there really are only mo of them who really know I am out there." This quote could be attributed to any offensive center on any football team in the country. And who would those two fans be who knew the name of the offensive center? Hus mother and his girl friend. And they are aware of ..is presence only because he gave them free tickets to the game. An exaggeration? Not by much. Actually, the entire offensive line could be fugitives from justice and would probably go years unnoticed. And so in this space I would like to pay tribute to several members of the Weber State offensive line. They received less publicity this 3 ear than any other Wildcat group. But they did a fine job. Weber had little or no passing attack. Opponents could key on the Weber running game, yet the Wildcats still managed 230 against a stacked defense. yards per game running The unsung Wildcat heroes all year were tight end Emmett White; tackles Rich Stromberg, Darcy Wingo. Charley Hayes; guards Jim Massey, Poh Afuvai; and center Jerry Mucha. These are the guys whose noses are stuck in the ground, whose uniforms are usually so dirty by halftime that even if you wanted to check numbers for identity it would be impossible. Every team has its share of unsung heroes. And usually they are the offensive linemen. . .
