...Parseghian could hardly have helped being impressed. If he was, he sure didn't let the boys know. Hanratty was competitive with Fellow Sophomore Coley O'Brien for the quarterback's job, and he still had a lot to learn. Endlessly, Terry practiced "quick release": dropping back, spotting Seymour, and firing, all in the space of 3½ sec., the average time it takes a strong defensive lineman to penetrate a passer's protective pocket. When he got his time down to 3½ sec., he began trying for 3 sec. Then Terry practiced varying...
Nothing Complicated. Hanratty reacted just about the way any 18-year-old kid would. "Say," he asked Seymour on the day of the game, "are your hands wet?" Replied Jim, with all the confidence of his more advanced years: "Sure. Aren't yours?" It stands to reason that their palms have stopped perspiring by now; nothing ages a man like success, and practically everything they have tried has worked...
...threw a 33-yd. pass that was deflected by two Rice defenders; Flanker Busby, a 9.4-sec.-dash man, flashed behind the defenders, leaped, and snared the ball for a touchdown. A 2-point conversion and a last-minute field goal rescued U.C.L.A. from near disaster 27-24.

...ordered to flood new life into his Notre Dame attack, and maybe, just maybe, spark the Irish to the national championship he has been pining for ever since that last-game loss to Southern Cal knocked Notre Dame out of the No. 1 spot in the 1964 rankings. "Sure I want the title," Parseghian admits. "What else is there to shoot for, since we don't belong to any conference or go to post-season bowls?" In the meantime, though, he is playing it mighty cool with his sensational sophomores. "They have a lot of ability; that has been...
...contract with the pro New York Jets. What bugged Terry was that people were forever comparing him with Joe. Since Terry had deliberately patterned himself after Baltimore's Johnny Unitas, the classiest-and probably the quietest-of pro quarterbacks, he wasn't sure that the other comparison was much of a compliment. So the biggest thrill of his high school career was beating Beaver Falls 41-21-scoring a touchdown in the process on an 82-yd. quarterback sneak. The film of that game, forwarded to Notre Dame by a scout, may well have been...
