00 too much talent?

By ANDY GLAZER?
T HE MICHIGAN WOLVERINES have once again proven that
they have too much talent for the likes of an also-ran like
Ohio State.
Unfortunately, they may also have too much talent for their
own good. There were questions in the stands and the press box,
as to why the Wolverines didn't substitute more and earlier.
Now, there are coaches who would give their left arm
to be able to have such problems. In fact, Johnny Orr used

Taking an overview, you can't arevie with Orr's success. Ile
has taken teams that no one exnected to go anywhere and twice
taken them to the NCAA. This year's team was full of ques-
tion marks before the season started. You don't see many now.
On the other hand, it is difficult to tell a talented ball-
nlayer like Tom Bergen (or others that are less vocal) that
he must wait. Bt as difficult as that may be, it must be done.
It is Johnny Orr's job to win, and he's doing it.
"It's my team," said Orr, "and we'll substitute when I feelI
like substituting."
You're a winner, Johnny Orr, and no one ever argues with
a winner. I think the move should be made sometime-but I also
think there is no one who knows better than you when it shouldM
be made.
