Addres S By BOB WOJNOWSKI When Phil Hubbard was announced as the Detroit Pistons' third first-round draft pick in the 1979 college basketball draft, the gallery gathered in the Silverdome booed. When Phil Hubbard returns to Ann Arbor to attend a Michigan basketball game, as he often does, he receives something far less than a hero's welcome. In fact, his presence is rarely acknowledged. His career statistics at Michigan are im- pressive (fifth all-time leading scorer), but the manner in which he left is what sours the ardent fans.. For Further Information On Campus, Contact: PROF.

ThiCk of :. .w """ i T_________ 4 He came out of Canton, Ohio as one of the most highly publicized recruits in Michigan basketball history, and his first two years as. a Wolverine did nothing to dispel the lofty expectations, But then there was the knee injury prior to his junior year. And the somewhat subpar '78-79 season. And the signing with the Pistons after he had said he was coming back to Michigan for his final year of eligibility. And the boos. "IT WAS TOUGH," Hubbard says now of his first season as a Piston. "But I don't regret leaving (Michigan), I regret we had such a terrible season last year. "Playing in the NBA was just something I always wanted to do and I thought it (signing with the Pistons) was as good a chance as any." In looking for reasons to explain Hubbard's change of mind and his signing with the Pistons, the most common hypothesis is that the spot where Hubbard was picked (midway through the first round), meant big money, and an offer than could not be refused. "BEING PICKED in the first round and all definitely helped (to make the decision). I just decided to take my chances." The aidjustment from college to the pros was an especially tough one for Hubbard. He was joining a rebuilding team and there was a midseason coaching change to compound matters. He was also playing on a knee which some doubted was completely sound. But Hubbard does not use injury as an excuse for his poor (nine points and five rebounds average per game) season. The problem in adjusting was simple, "You can't adjust if you're not playing," he deadpans. AFTER A SLOW start this year, Hubbard has been coming on strong of hard. We've got a new coach and a new system and we've had a lot of, injuries, but we've been playing hard all season long," said Hubbard. Despite the rigors of a pro basketball season, Hubbard finds time to maintain close ties with the Michigan basketball team. "I FOLLOW THE team. I tried to get to the Windsor game last Monday but couldn't make it," he explains. "I'm friends with most of them and I still keep in touch with alot of my old team- mates." Hubbard also feels that hard-working rookie head coach Bill Frieder will do a "fantastic job." And the team as a whole? Hubbard. stops just short of being non-committal. "I think they'll do pretty good," he of- fers. Despite two NCAA tournament ap- pearances and a berth on the 1976 U.S. Olympic team, Hubbard recalls no vic- tory which stands out as memorable. "THEY WERE all big victories. I think the ones in the NCAA's might have been the biggest, but no particular victory stands out. "They were all fun though. In fact, I enjoyed most of my career." But most is not all. Hubbard is reluc tant to call his Michigan career a whole-hearted success. But his recent play as a Piston seems to indicate that better times are just ahead. late, as have the Pistons as a whole. He has averaged better than 20 points per game over the last five games and sparkled in an 18 point, 15 rebound per- formance against Atlanta. The new- found success, according to Hubbard, has been a culmination of hardwork which Piston coach Scotty Robertson has resolutely stressed. "The whole team's been playing real Waters choppy as tankers open season amid much uncertainty By CHUCK HARTWIG A feeling of uncertainty surrounds the men's swimming team as it prepares to open its season this Satur- day against Eastern Michigan at Matt Mann Pool. "We're in almost a rebuilding year," says Coach Bill Farley. "Right now we're an average swimming team." Farley thinks that the team will have a tough time matching its performance of last season when the Wolverines finished second in the Big Ten and 15th in the country., The uncertainty on the team stems from several factors. First of all, the team has had many injuries in its early practices, and several swimmers, in- cluding All-American freestyler Fer- rfando Canales, are not working out at full strength yet. Still another uncertainty is created by the eligibility question involving diver Kevin Machemer, dnother All- American. He is locked in a rules dispute involving scholarship eligibility of transfer students. Machemer -is currently able to compete. However, the situation could change pending a _ l r.:- . r Action SportsWear HOME OF "CHEAP BIGFOOT" When. you u'e catching the Rose Bowl, catch Holywod in the act. , 011 Tired of PAYING More WAMPUM for those Big Canoes?

To further complicate matters, the team is a very young one which must count on strong performances from many untested freshmen if it hopes to, have any chance at challenging last year's record. Coach Farley sums up the situation well when he says, "We're in a very tenuous position right now." Farley is quick to add, however, that the season could still be a very good one for the team if everything falls into' place. The team hopes to be able to make a training trip to Puerto Rico over winter vacation in order to concen- trate on intense training for the Big Ten season which opens on January 15th. Farley believes the trip is a key to the team's chances for success this year. "We're in a position where we have one chance for a good season, and that is by hard work," said Farley. The most important swimmers on this year's team are Canales, Bob Murray, and Tom Ernsting. Canales is ' expected to have another outstanding'r; year, although he is still recovering from an injury. Murray was also an All- american pick last year, and Farley thinks he will be awesome this year, while Ernsting is expected to really blossom into a nationally prominent swimmer this season. The divers, who Farley considers to be "the strongest part of our team," are led by the embroiled All-american Machemer. Mark McMann and. Jon Beachwill alsobecounted on heavily. Farley hopes to use Saturday's opener as an opportunity to get some experience under pressure for some of his younger swimmers, and as a measuring stick of the progress of the veterans. The meet will be held at 1:00 1 p.m. on Saturday at Matt Mann pool. Farley feels that with a strong perfor- mance in this meet, and continued steady work, the team does have a chance to end up better than last year, with a strong national ranking.
