TOP TlPS-Un- ion Sunday, June 14 the Chicago Bulla celebrated Flag Day by adding another championship flag to their collection when Michael Jordan and bench playera rallied the team to a second straight NBA title. The Jordan led bunch didnt just wipe out those Portland Trailblazers as they also ruled supreme in a battle with a caveman from Endno. Dont tell the NBA, but the final minutes of the ball game were taped because I wanted to check out that "Endno Man" flick at the local theatre and with Portland up by 17 in the third quarter it appeared that a seventh and dedding game would be needed. On the way to the theatre I turned on the radio and discovered Portland was up by only one paint.

"With camp set to begin July 22 I have been told to go in, work hard and just go out and play. Green Bay with a new coach and staff should have at least five quarterbacks once camp starts," said Detmer. The selection of Detmer in the ninth round was a disappointment to many of his fans. However, he wasnt surprised at being a low pick. "I expected to go in a later round. Everyone has been talking about the size factor. I have heard it since coming out of high school and am hearing it again," he said. "I had no idea what team would select me. Dm starting with a clean slate. I'm hoping to stick on and watch and learn." Playing in the Canadian or World League is a possibility for Detmer if a NFL career doesnt work out "Former University of Utah quarterback Scott Mitchell had a great year. He made it to the World League championship game. I havent considered it because I dont know if the World League will be around next season. The Canadian League is a different style of play with only three downs as compared to four by the NFL. However, I will take it one step at a time." Union Coach Dan Busenbark and Detmer were teammates at BYU, and he said, "I remember Dm and our linemen being big enough to stop a few people. Ws had a good time playing together." Busenbark said, "A quarterback has to take control and be a leader. When Ty came into the game the linemen would bust their guts to protect him and win the battle. I remember one time during the Freedom Bowl Ty tried to Mode a 5 250 pounder. He got knocked down, but he was doing everything he could to win." Texan Detmer was recruited by Miami, Michigan and UCLA. He dedded to play for Brigham Young University. "I liked their passing offense. I knew I would get a chance to pass the ball at BYU. Detmert brother, who had originally committed to BYU will now play for Colorado since the Cougars have a huge supply of quarterbacks. Detmer will still have ties to Utah aa his wife is from Salt Lake City. When asked if she is a University of Utah or BYU fan he naturally said, "BYU, of course! It wasnt the guy wearing the Utah cap, but an interviewer dressed in a BYU Cougar jacket, who asked, "If you had it to do over again would you have passed the ball that was intercepted on the final play of the game, which left BYU in a tie in last yeert bond game?" Detmer answered: T would call the same play, but I would run or throw it low and away." Currently two former BYU quarterbacks are playing for NFL teams. Jim McMahan led the Chicago Bears to a Super Bowl victory and is now a member of the Philadelphia Eagles. Steve Young is a backup for the San Francisco 49ere and has three Super Bowl rings. 6-- Three other Cougar quarterbacks, Virgil Carter, Marc Wilson and Gifford Nielsen had long professional careers. Detmer hopes to join the list of BYU greats in the NFL with Green Bay being: "This Is The Place for a pro career. |
