we practiced four weeks and we' re
six weeks behind by the lime the
season starts. We don't have the
time to come together, but at least
the other schools arc at the same
disadvantage."
"I just die in my office wanting
to coach," Bennett said. "All you
have is your knowledge to help the
kids and someone tells you can't
do it. That's devastating. If I
wanted to fish all the time, I'd go
fishing , but 1 want to coach."
"We're used to doing things on
our own without the help of oth¬
ers," he said. "I've had to mow the
grass myself and drag the field
myself. When we needed to raise
the money for a stadium or some¬
thing else, we raised the money.
Now if teams want to raise the
loney for an assistant coach, the
NCAA won' t let those teams have
t>ach, even if they pay him out of
irown pockets. That's not right."
^Bennett's baseball involvement
'exceeds being FSU's head coach.
He is a past president of the Ameri¬
can Baseball Coaches Association
and serves on the Hall of Fame and
All-Americacommittee within the
association. Bennett was inducted
into the ABCA Hall of Fame in
1992, and wants the NC/fA to re¬
alize its potential destruction of
the sport.
"One word would help the
NCAA: listen. They decide ev¬
erything through committees, one
after another, and they're solving
our problems for us. I want to tell
the NCAA to stop controlling us,
because they are. I don't have one
bit,of trouble with the NCAA pe¬
nalizing a school for breaking the
rules, but they're penalizing us for
not doing anything wrong."

advantage, the statistics said teams
who score first usually win.
But by the early stages of the
fourth quarter, Budweiser had held
on fora breathtaking winoverBud
Light (If s pretty bad when a bunch
of beer bottles can play better game
than a bunch of millionaire former
All-Americans).
At the same time, former Bull¬
dog James Williams was getting
I beateiffor another touchdown pass.
Bills' fans back home were jump¬
ing into frozen Lake Erie, and the
streets of Dallas were happy again;
cvenJ.R. and Bobby Ewing prob¬
ably partied at the Southfork pool.
I've always wonderftd what else
is on television during the Super
Bowl. Let's see, the "Gilligan's
Island" marathon is. on TNT, "The
Life and Times of the Gila Mon¬
ster" is on Discovery, and an ESPN
special presentation: "Great Mo¬
ments in Super Bowl History: the
Buffalo Bills and Denver Bron¬
cos."
Super Bowl XXVITJ is approxi-
mately.362 days away. The NFC
team,.including .Phoenix and
TarnpaBay, has been listed as 8 1/
2 point, favorites.
The Las Vegas oddsmakers are
giving the AFC too much credit.
Men's tennis beats Davis, women lose
As the sun set on the FSU tennis
courts yesterday.. Andy Stewart
polished off Gil Labrucheri, giv¬
ing the Bulldogs a 4-2 win over
defending NCAA Division II na¬
tional champion UC Davis.
Stewart came from a set down to
defeat Labrucherie 2-6, 6-3, 6-2,
clinching, the win for FSU and
evening its dual record at 1-1..
Davis dropped to 1-1, also.
In the NCAA's new scoring for¬
mat, three doubles matches are
played prior to the six singles
matches. The team winning two or
more doubles matches is awarded
one team point, with each singles
victory also earning a team point.
The Bulldogs took the doubles,
2-1, and had split the four singles
matches that concluded before
Stewart's. Peter Klinovsky's match
against Brian Paveglia was called
off due to darkness shortly-after
the team contest had been decided.
Other singles winners for the
Bulldogs were Bryan juinio and
Steve Jackson.
The Women's tennis team, how¬
ever, didn't fare as well, playing
No. 2 Stanford on the Cardinal's
home turf.
Playing without its top two play¬
ers, the deep and talented Stanford
team still managed to blank the f
'Dogs,9-0, who were without their
No. 2 player Mary Jo Fallara.
The women's record drops to 2-
1, and Stanford is now 3-0.
They face USC next Tuesday.
