...flexibility," calls for playing time for both quarterbacks. Each has different talents to offer--Stoeckel is a smart play caller and a good play-action short passer, while Crone is a drop back passer with a rifle arm well suited to the long bomb. Milt Holt, who threw seven touchdown passes while sharing the quarterback duties on last year's freshman team, has also drawn Restic's praise during preseason practice. And senior Frank Guerra, a frustrated veteran of three seasons on the bench (and one who may have the best understanding of the Restic system) has not been counted...
...quite hold on to a rally, and dropped their eighth in a row, 24-19. One of the lesser quarterbacks in a league full of mediocre quarterbacks, Bob Zinc, riddled the Crimson secondary and erased Harvard's 17-3 lead, but the Crimson, behind Crone, produced a late touchdown and sent the Brown fans home to mourn another endless fall...
...week later, Restic finally found a quarterback in sophomore Jimmy Stoekel. While Dartmouth's eight man line bottled up the Crimson running game, Stoekel set a Harvard record for completions, connecting on 20 of 37 passes for 230 yards. On Harvard's first touchdown drive, Stoekel either passed or ran himself on every play. Stoekel received some help from the goat of the Holy Cross game, Denis Sullivan, who attoned for his dropped passes in the opener by setting up one touchdown and scoring the second on a spectacular catch. Sullivan dropped a bomb on the Dartmouth five yard line...
...pester him unmercifully all season, it meant Restic's job. Restic was saved from an avalanche of angry letters and threatening phone calls by none other than "Endzone" Crone, the infamous hero of the '70 Harvard-Yale game. Endzone was hot, going 8-12 for 147 yards and two touchdowns (including a 29 yard TD off a Restic special quarterback-in-motion play) in the first half, while the defense added two more touchdowns to give Harvard a 28-2 half time lead. Yale countered with a quarterback wearing Brian Dowling's old number 10 in the second half...
Against Northeastern, in the final minutes of the game. I ran for a touchdown which was called back. I carried the ball twice behind the blocking of the second-string line for a 7.5-yard average. It was the first and last opportunity I had to carry the ball in a varsity game for Harvard. I stayed as a third-string fullback throughout the duration of the 1970 season and was relegated to junior varsity football. During the season I constantly protested to Yovicsin, the coaching staff, the administration of the University and anyone else who would listen...
