SC footballers the past two years, Hill said:
“If the players are going to tackle and block, they should do it as hard as they can.”
“I don’t like players .to feel satisfied after a loss,” Hill said. The former New York Yankee outfielder believes if a player lacks the will to win on the field, he tends to have a losing attitude in the classroom as well.
Hill told the audience about former SC football coach How-ard Jones’ efforts to make a boy believe he is a good player and instill a flair for winning in him.
“Winning Attitude” Needed Hill believes a player has to have this “winning attitude” to achieve greatness.
He also brought out that, not only is football playing a major part in building the university, but that it is helping out many who could never have afforded to come to SC.
Having served four years in the Navy, Hill pointed out that the consensus of officers’ opinions was that a man with an athletic career behind him showed good qualities of leadership, loyalty, and honesty.
Sets Spring Practice Date Hill, who said he has enough troubles with his players academically, set Apr. 27 as the beginning of spring practice .because he didn’t want it to interfere with the gridders’ 10-week examinations.
Arguing in favor of spring training, Hill said a football team couldn't be made in the fall, and that the 20 alloted days in spring were hardly enough time to practice.
