S"I know one for sure. With Tim out there underneath the basket all the time, we will definitely be getting more garbage baskets than we have gotten in around five years.'' Another worry for Frieder is the competition in the Big Ten, which he I 1 FREE HEATED DELIVERY DELICIOUS PIZZA & SUBS We reserve the right to limit our delivery area OPEN 7 DAYS 4:30p.m.-2a.m. Sun. 4p.m.-1a.m. - -m mmmmmm mm--- --- - - m Call 769-3400 fl £FILL IN BELOW U p 0 N YU TO VALIDATE 2 FREE PEPSIS with any pizza, 1 or more items Address Phone ONE COUPON PER PIZZA feels is the strongest conference in the NCAA. "WE (THE BIG TEN) play the best basketball in the country," said Frieder. "And because of that I think you're going to see very many close games. I'll tell you this much, the team that wins the conference will be the team that wins all of its home games and splits on the road. Indiana did it last season. "I think another key to success in the Big Ten is avoiding the long losing streak. You know you're going to have them, especially in this conference, but hopefully you can bounce back. We had our share last year." In order to avoid that from happening this season Frieder will have to get more consistent performances from his starting corps. And although Frieder is mighty happy to land the Michigan job, he would be even happier to start making travel plans to one of the sites of the NCAA regionals.

But there are other reasons for that type of optimism. Optimism anyway One is Heuerman, who has im- proved every year to the point where he has become a very respectable con- ference center. Another is the fact that Garner is a year better and stronger; his sometimes-brilliant play in 1979-80 WOLVER Mike McG as head c points out t team's nevi during an session. another st McGee, wh scored 170' the all-timi list and on from rec Russell's 2) was only the beginning for him. Yet another is the sweet shooting of Johnny Johnson, who has lost some weight and should assert himself as one of the Big Ten's better guards in this, his senior season. The always-hustling Bodnar twins, Marty and Mark, return to the backcourt as well. And Crisler Arena fans will see the biggest improvement from a year ago in th eplay of guard Joe James. James never displayed the capabilities that Johnny Orr and Frieder had hoped for from Ohio's Class AA Player of the Year in 1979,but some of the disappoin- tment can be tainty of a fres know his rol tremendous lI manifest itself time and a big and-Blue fortur And finally, McCormick, if play a large r isn't ridden int over-optimistic Ohio State's C good player thi in the future. m== mm mmmmmmmm mm ===w mmi m=mm mm mm mmmm mmmmmm Conference leaders FIELD GOAL AVERAGE FG FGA Pet.
