Boschem Buchler has a Story for everything. If he was t one or the dozen Best College fool Ball coaches who Ever lived he could have hired himself Oul to sit around campfires and spin talks. Schum Buchter was saying the other Day that when he accomplishes every thing he warns to do As a football coach he won t stick around the University of Michigan until he loses interest. And for that Loo he had a Story. Right after Bear Bryant had broke the All Lime record for victories he and i were coaching in the East West game Schembechler said. We had this Long session one Day and he mentioned to me that he did t want to go Back to the office did t want to Call the office did t want to recruit another kid. He wanted to quit. I said Bear Why Don t you just quit i la to gel the Telephone and Call your presi Dent you re Gonna quit right now right this minute he said of no you can t do that. I be got 47 people Back there in Ala Bama that i be hired plus the kids if i quit what happens to All those people it struck me right then Schembechler said that in his Pursuit of the record that he coached longer than he wanted to coach Sod he got Hung up in there. Even after he bad the record he had to continue. Then one year after he quiz he Dies. If it s not fun it s Noi Worth pursuing. I Promise you Iwohn Dorial to Schembechler is 57 and he think about such things now. But not very much. He his bad one heart attack and open heart Wray. He has been on probation by the big ten conference for being so open with elitism. He has insulted academicians. He has terrified then commanded the re Spect of ii players. He has also been portrayed As a combative crusty old ogre who Lias grown completely sick of recruiting while win Ning More games 202 at two schools a. To Schembechler against 55 losses and seven lies than any Man still coaching College football. Schum Beubler s wife Millie and his doctors have been after him since the 1969 heart attack to lose weight and get in better shape. Bui it look an of season bet with a Friend a 1920s lire engine was at stake for Schembechler to sled about 30 pounds Down to 199. Anything in the name of Competition. This is not the time to bet against Schembechler either. Since 1969, his first season at Michigan his teams have won 161 games lost 38 and tied four. Of the 38 defeats Only seven have been by More than 10 Points which Means Schembechler s Learnt have either won or come fairly close to winning in 196 of 203 games. Fiat rumours abound on the wolverines Ann Arbor Campus that the crust ogre has mellowed a that Mellow stuff. I m the Sam Guy tie insisted. I m just in better control now. I handle things belter. People arc surprised to find i m a Nice Guy Buti be been like this All the Bui probably not this Nice. George c. Scott the Man who played general Pat ton is still he Choice to play Schum Bechler if Ever there is a movie. On the Field working with the play ers he is still As intense As he Ever was Jimmy Brandstatter one of Schembechler s former players and now the Man who hosts his television show said this week. But he has been Able to separate on the Field from off and he did t Al ways do that. I think it took some time for him to realize there arc other things in life. He s very much Al ease with himself now. He s aware of his Success and he s Wear ing it very Well. Those first few years he never really accepted Success very Brandstatter should know because lie was an offensive tackle at Michigan when Schembechler arrived in 1969 to replace bump Elliott. Brandstatter and classmate Dan Dier Dorf the former All pro lineman talked about the culture Shock the team went through in the transition from Elliott who coached mostly from his practice Field lower to scheme Cejer Brandi Tat Ter said he came in As an , Lel Vokk their Bult kind there were about 115 Guys who started out thai Spring and at the end there were about so " Brandstatter said. To s got this sign in the locker room that says those who stay will be champions Well one Guy who quit was waiting out of the locker room with a magic Marker. He had written under to s words and those who leave will be Doc tors lawyer and important Stefan Humphries now of the chicag Obean is As fond of Schembechler Ai a player could be of his coach. He it very explosive on the Field Humphries said when i got to Chicago in 1984 i saw a Tot of to in Mike Ditka. I imagine except for some Subtle differences seeing Mike now is like seeing a Youngbo. There were some times when it was so Tough i wandered if i was doing height thing and i Don t think Many of us understood or appreciated until our senior years that we were Alt better because of so that he knew exactly when to Stop pushing thai his master plan was to help us be As Good As we could be at whatever we wanted Brandstatter recalled the Lime before one Rose bowl when Schembechler had the team Scrimm aging in full Padi. We re out there ripping and tearing. Glenn Doughty our starting tailback even blew his knee out in one of those practices. But at night we were staying in some monastery to almost literally would put every player in bed. 1 think he still does the record supports that. Schembechler s teams at Michigan have won 79.8 percent of their games. Thai s the Best in the country. Sehe Bechter a teams have finished with 10 wins eight time in 17 years 1 once and nine three times. His teams have finished in the associated press top 10 in 13 of those 17 years. He never has had a losing season. Bui then there is the bowl record 3-10, with every loss by a touchdown or less. The record was 6-7 until the i�b1rose bowl. And it might be the Only thing that will keep Schembechler from being recognized As the greatest Colleg coach Ever when he retires. Schembechler hated to lose the bowl games but several were lost in the final seconds or on controversial play. He was t even around for the first one be cause he had the bean attack dec 31, 1969. To would always scream that bowl games were for toe players and we should be playing for ourselves Hume ones said. But we were playing for to rat we wanted to do anything to win a bowl game for
