That man is Woody Hayes. Hayes, now in his 18th year as head coach at Ohio State Univer- sity, expects the Buckeyes to rise to national prominence with con- SCOUTING THE BIG TEN siderable help from a group of talented sophomores. These soph- o6Mores battled the varsity on even terms in the first half of the 1967 freshman-varsity game. Rex Kern and John Brocking- ton are rated two of the bestI sophomore prospects in the coun- try. A very slippery and elusive runner, Kern, who holds the rare distinction of being named All- Ohio in football, basketball, and baseball, gained 189 yards rush- ing in victories last fall against the highly rated freshman teams of Indiana and Pitt. He is expect- ed to battle with Bill Long for1 the starting quarterback assign- ment. John Brockington, 6'1", 210, a former All American high school fullback from Brooklyn, N.Y., is slated to start at right half this fall. Possessing breakaway :-peed despite his good size, Brockington, averaged over 7.2 yards/carry in the freshman games last fall, Other sophomores who should help on offense include Leophus Hayden, 6'2", 204, at left half and Larry Zelina former All American high school back at right half. Zelina, rated a good pass receiver, may also be used for punting and place kicking. Jim Stillwagon, 220, is one of six sophomores who figure to see action on defense. Stillwagon, voted the best freshman defensive lineiman, has been number one at middle guard since the first day of spring practice. Tim Anderson and Mike Sensi- baugh, the best of last year's frosh defensive backs, figure to start in the secondary.
