*Denotes USO Homecoming Game ALL HOME GAMES PLAYED AT USO TORERO STADIUM

A Message From President Hughes The Toreros 1991 football season promises to be one of the most exciting ever. For the second straight season the team posted an impressive 7-2 record. But win-loss records are not the standards by which we measure the success of our athletic program. The value of our program rests in its ability to instill in our students those lessons which help shape the whole human being. For you see, our values education doesn't end at the edge of the football field. The terminology may change, the look of the classroom may be different, but the lesson is the same. Our coaches look at each player as a young individual, still learning lessons about hon- esty, integrity, team-playing, and respect for all human beings. For these reasons, our football team is always a winner in my book. I hope you will join me in continu- ing our support for our outstanding football team as it faces a very promising and thrilling year.

Tom Iannacone is beginning his fourth year as the University of San Diego director of athletics. He assumed the position September 1, 1988 after a nationwide search.

The 50-year-old Iannaconehas made great strides in his first three years. His accomplishments at USO include an ongoing internal reorganization of the athletic department, plus improvements in the major areas of new personnel, additional scholarship assistance, facilities improvements, pro- motions and marketing, fund raising, drug education and academic support. Iannacone came to the University of San Diego with an impressive list of credentials and a thorough knowledge of intercollegiate athletics. Prior to USO, he was Director of Athletics for four years at St. Francis College in Loretto, Pennsylvania. Hardwork, loyaltyand dedication are justsome of thewords that easily describe Iannacone. His majorcontributions at St. Francis included the expansion of sports offerings and scholarships for both men and women, improved budgets, renovation of athletic facilities, the hiring of additional staff, and the establishment of a master plan for the future and continual development of athletics. He served on several committees, most notably the ECAC Infractions committee and the Northeast Conference committee on conference development. which developed a plan for the future and implemented the position for a full-time commissioner. Currently Iannacone serves as a consultant to the NCAA I-AAA Football Committee. Prior to his tenure at St. Francis, Iannacone served as assistant athletic director at Fordham University from 1977- 84. Along with his administrative duties at Fordham, he was an assistant football coach for the Rams. From 1975-78, he acted as offensive coordinator and backfield coach as Fordham captured 19 victories in their final 24 games during this span. The 1977 squad was and remains the highest scoring team in Fordham history, averaging 34 points per game.

_I

In 1983, Iannacone was presented the prestigious Jack Coffey Award by the Alumni Association for outstanding contributions to Fordham athletics. He has also served on various Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference committees. Prior to Fordham, Iannacone taught physical education and coached track and football in the Norwalk, Ridgefield and New Milford (CT) school districts from 1964-76. He made his collegiate football coaching debut as an offensive backfield coach atWestern Connecti- cut State University in 1974. A 1964 graduate of the University of Connecticut, Iannacone received his master of science degree in physical education from Southern Connecticut State University in 1973. Tom and his wife, Cynthia, have three children: Tom Jr.,Jennifer and Eric; all three are students at USO.

Brian Fogarty Entering his 9th year, head coach Brian Fogarty has slowly built the USD football program into the national spotlight. While posting his second consecutive 7-2 season in 1990, Fogarty became USD's all-time winningest coach. He takes a career mark of 40-35-2 into the 1991 campaign. Over the past four years, with the Toreros going 25-11-1 , USO football has realized its many goals. 1990 marked the second straight year the Toreros finished ranked 6th in the NCAA Division Ill western region polls. Coach Fogarty's teams have also fared well in the classroom. Since 1986 four Toreros have earned Academic All-American status, and the National Football Foundation and Hall of Fame has recognized a scholar-athletefrom USD eachyear since 1983.Also, since 1983, the USD football program has graduated over 95 percent of its players.

Coach Fogarty,who serves as the team's offensive coordinator,enters 1991 in search of hisfifth straight winning season. The immediate future of USO football looks promising as approximately 55 lettermen return in 1991, including 11 starters. Beforecoming to USO, Brian coached at St. Francis High School in La Canada,Californiawhere hewas head coach for four years and an assistant coach for nine years prior. As head coach his record was 28- 18-2 and his teams made the playoffs all four years. Brian and his wife Vicki have four children: Bridgit, Joe, Colleen and Megan.

1991 USD FOOTBALL PROFILE Eight years ago, a goal was set by the new football staff to develop a football program that would be nationally recognized, but to do so while reflecting the philosophy and values of the university. In order to achieve this goal, it remains important for the university to attracttrue student athletes. Notonly must they be good football players,but good students as well. The USD football program is part of the NCAA Division 111, which means they are ;, nonscholarship. The Division Ill philosophy places the emphasison academics first, ¥

with athletics being an integral part of the educational process. This does not make Division Ill football any less competitive or intense. Many great athletes who some how "didn't measure up to the Division I standards" find themselves at Division Ill programs. This makes for an exciting brand of football that is played with the same " enthusiasm and fervor that you find at the "major college" programs. The USD football program has seen a tremendous growth over the last eight years.The quality of its players hasrisen steadily both academically and athletically. The minimum requirements for incoming students are 3.0 GPA's with a 900 on the SAT, and many of the players on the present squad were highly honored student- athletes at their high school. This combination of academics and athletics makes USD football an attractive opportunity for the serious student who is looking to get a good education as well as participating on an outstanding football team. The major recruiting emphasis is on high school seniors. This is a departure from the previous philosophy which depended heavily on transfers. To develop the consistency needed to be successful every year, players should be part of the program for four years. This process was slow, but, has paid great dividends. National and regional rankings over the past four seasons, along with four Academic All Americans are just a few of the bench marks that point to how far this program hascome. The team GPA of 2.8 tells that USD's players are successful in the classroom as well.

The Torero's offense is coming off one of its finest seasons since Coach Fogarty arrived on the scene in 1983. Since switching to the Wing T offense, USD has given opposing defenses many different things to worry about defending. This misdirection offense is perfectly suited for taking advantage of the strengths of San Diego's personnel. Although USD loses some key performers from the offense, four offensive starters return from last year's 7-2 team. The offensive line returns center Gene Fontana (6-0, 240) and tackle Neil Greer (6-2, 250). Taking the snaps from Fontana and directing the Wing T offense will be junior QB Michael Bennett (6-1, 191 ). He'll be counted on to replace four-year starter Brendan Murphy. The running attack should be solid with junior Scott Sporrer (568 yards, 4 TD's). senior John Eck (6-0, 175) and senior Charlie Taumoepeau (5- 11, 230) sharing the bulk of the ground duties. Leading candidates for receiving duties include senior WR Dave Bergmann (6-1, 200) and senior TE Brad Leonard (6-3, 210). Senior John Eck hauled in 16 passes a year ago, good for 189 yards and 2 TD's. The Torero coaching staff has every reason to believe the 1991 offense will be every bit as productive as their predecessors.

The San Diego defense has established itselfas one of the best in Division Ill football. With seven returning starters, the Torero defense figures to be outstanding once again. The front seven will be the strength this year, with all the defensive linemen and three of the four line backers returning. Key returners include linemen Christian Sirek (6-5, 210, Jr.), Rick Salazar (6-0, 220, Sr.) and Jim Washam (6-1 , 235, Sr.); ILB Dan Chandler (6-0, 215, Sr.); OLB's Ken Robak (6-3, 210, Sr.) and Paul Sellers (6-0, 202, Sr.); and DBDave Paladino (5-8, 170, Sr.). Paladino, a3-yearstarter inthe defensive secondary, paced the Toreros in 1990 with 86 tackles. USD special teams will continue to be a major reason for Torero success. At this time the kicking chores will be handled by senior Dave Bergmann. Bergmann has converted 26-of-38 FG's the past two seasons. Freshman Robert Ray will take over at punter, replacing four year performer John Gillis. Top candidates for kick and punt return duties include seniors Greg Frinell and Dave Paladino. 1991 is the year when the Toreros hope to put it all together and reach their goal of going to the NCAA playoffs. Last season saw them ranked as one of the top six teams in the NCAA Division Ill western region. It marked the second year in a row that USD just missed a berth in the NCAA post season playoffs. But, USO has to deal with a very tough schedule that includes two Division II opponents as well as teams that comprise the always tough SC/AC confer- ence. The future looks very bright for USD and 1991 should be a very good year for the Toreros.

HITTING THE LITTLE Small-college football may

TIME BY MICHAEL BRADLEY Dan Reszka's childhood football dreams were always a linle crowded. Surrounding his electrifying touchdowns and game-sav- ing interceptions were 75,000 or so specta- tors, providing a loud soundtrack to his hopes. When you grow up in suburban Milwaukee. that's the way it is. Your fan- tasies have a Big IO navor. When Northern Illinois offered him a scholarship and a chance to play against Wi sconsin, Michigan State a nd even Nebraska, with their loud crowds, televi- sion cameras and foo tball traditions, Reszka grabbed it. Sometimes dreams do come true. And sometimes they don't. After red- shirting a year, Reszka saw limited action on special teams for the Huskies as a fresh- man. But the future didn't look promising. Ahead of him on the defensive backfield depth chart were other freshmen and a sophomore or two. II appeared much of Reszka's next three years would be spent as part of the soundtrack. not the action. So he transferred from the big-time down to Di vision II and North Dakota State-one of the schools that originally recruited him. They play before about 12,000 each Saturday in Fargo, and the TV crews-save the local affiliates--

not be as glamorous as I-A, but everyone agrees that it's fun and just rewarding.

In choosing the smaller, quieter North Dakota State campus, Dan Reszka found out that the gridiron action was just as loud as Division I.

they do not predominate. "I can really tell the difference between I- A and II at the skill positions," Reszka said. "Everybody on the Division II level is a great athlete, but the big-time players are a step or two ahead, and the linemen are bigger. The skill levels are the same, it's just a matter of size and speed.'" Though big-time fans and players may not bel ieve it, NCAA Division I-AA, 11 and Ill and NAIA Divisions I and II do not roil in a vacuum. Pro aspirations are real- ized by small-college players, though no one would ever claim NDSU's North Central Conference to be a farm system for the pros. Still, 246 ( 19.5 percent) players on the 1990 professional rosters played at small colleges, as did the 75 more selected in last April's draft. And we're not just talking courtesy calls, here. Just ask All-Pros like Jerry Rice of the 49ers (Mississippi Valley State), Andre Reed of the Bills (Kutztown University) and the Bears' Richard Dent (Tennessee State). Or al l-time greats like Wa lter Payton (Jackson St.), Bob Hayes (Florida A&M) and Joe Greene (North Texas St.). Smal l-college footbal l is not played in slow motion by big-time rejects. "About one-third of the guys drafted played I-AA or below," said Tom Gamble, assistant director of player personnel for the Philadelphia Eagles. "Whe n you're talking about I-AA, you're talking about some schools, like Jac kson State or Arkansas State, that are equal to some I-A teams. That's some pretty good small-col- lege football." Anybody who played Dayton last season

knows just how good. Anchoring the Flyers' offensive line was hulking guard Dave Postmus, a 6-foot, 3-inch senior transfer from the University of lllinois. Postmus started as a junior for the Illini but had a "little controversy" with coach John Mackovic and bolted the team. Since he had redshirted his freshman year, Postmus could not go to another I-A school. because the mandatory year he would have sat out would have completed his eligibility. After a brief searc h, he wound up at Dayton, determined to continue progress toward a professional career. Though he disliked the football team·s second-class status on campus- ··1t's really a basketball school," he said-Postmus worked hard and earned an invitation to the NFL's scout- ing combine in Indianapol is in Marc h. Once there, he shined. Postmus bench- pressed 225 pounds 36 times, tops among all prospects, and registered a 33-inch verti- cal leap, the best of all the linemen. "'I knew what I had to do, and I kept it in perspecti ve." Postmus said. ""The pro scouts know if you're out there. If you·re good, they' ll find you." (Unfortunately none of the 28 NFL teams found Postmus in the 199 1 draft, but you best believe someone will take advantage of his free agent status.) Gamble concurs. "There really aren't any secrets," he said. "The combines, scouts and coaches do a good job. It's tough not to know about a guy who can play." After spending four years as part of a major-college program, Postmus' journey to Division lil had to include a few shocks. He noticed a little more attention from ref-

Broadway, he'll enjoy the chance to com- pete, trading national attention for a little more of the collegiate experience. 'Tm not unhappy with my decision," he said. "I' m glad I played Division I, and now I'm glad to be in Division II. I got a taste of both." Small-college football is fi lled with sto- ries like Reszka's. Some players have been recruited by I-A schools and elected to go where they knew they'd play three or four years. Others transfer down from large pro- grams, seeking a starting job or just a dif- ferent attitude toward the game. The bulk haven' t turned down big-time offers or harbor professional dreams. They just want LO play footbal I. "I get to see a few Division II or III games each year, and that's where the foot- ball is played for fun," said Walter Juliff, a scout for the Dallas Cowboys. "There's a great campus atmosphere. It's Saturday afternoon America." Of course, there is a drastic talent drop- off away from Division I-A. The smaller the school, the smaller and slower the play- ers. There are exceptions, of course, but

··1 had 10 stay lower against the li11le guys, and when I played against bigger guys, I was so used to staying low, I had an advantage," he explained. "The smal ler players are quicker, so that helped me with my hand placements and my footspeed." Despite his success, Postmus is a bit of a rarity among small-college players. The majority that make it 10 the pros play the skill positions. like running back, wide receiver or defen sive back. Beefy high schoolers get major-college auention, leav- ing the smaller prospects for the rest. In order to get professional auention. a small- college lineman must dominate nearly every play and then wow the scouts at a combine. That should earn a low-round draft selection or free-agent signing. ··1t's a two, three or four-step process,"' Juli ff said. For backs and receivers, there's only one main criterion-speed. Run a consistent 4.3-second 40-yard dash. and you·11 fi nd work. Of course, the professional develop- ment process may take a liule longer, due to level of competition. but the message is clear: the pros want speed. ··Jeff Query of Millikin University was drafted in 1990 by the Packers in the fifth round. and you could wake him up in the middle of the night, and he'd run a 4.3," said Dan Shonka of the National Football Scouting Organization in Tulsa, one of the NFL"s main talent evaluators. "'When the smoke clears. the fast guys are left.'" Despite the occasional Postmus or Query. small-college rosters are short on behe- moths and burners but long on desire. Some players receive some I-A interest as high school seniors but don·1get the same "can"t miss billing as some blue-chip recruits. They choose the smaller school route to get more playing time and escape some of the demands of life at a factory.

Chad will see some playing time this year and anticipates starting during his final three seasons. ··1 don·1 want to go somewhere and just watch others play."
