Rare footage from 1975 Toledo vs. Ball State football game. First 15 minutes shows all of Ball State's offensive possessions. Last 15 minutes shows all of UT's offensive possessions. I believe this was Gene Swick's senior year.

Look at all those white people!
Wonder where black people came from? Were we hiding them? Shame on us. Those old videos show only a few and never even one Samoan. Now, there's Samoans everywhere. Except here. We should have our own Samoans. Other MAC teams have them.
Next coaches show, someone ask coach if we can have some Samoans.
And I'd also like an Australian kicker that tackles people. We got a freshman kicker that tackles people and then fights them. He tackles people that don't even have the ball and they're big people, not little ball carrying people. But does he have a funny accent? He's been in nearly two fights by my count, one against Arkansas and one against Ball St. I think our freshman kicker might be crazy so maybe we can make him an honorary Australian.
And our QB. I think he kind of looks like Gene Swick. Could someone put a bowl on Ely's head and cut his hair? Then we can compare. He might be like a genetic clone or something.
And looking at that video, I think I'd like us to play one game in black and white. I will hold a cardboard in front of my face with a small cut-out covered with staticky saran wrap. It would remind me of my childhood. I'd need a volunteer to stand in front of me holding an antenna over their head.
