"I don't know about that," USC Head Football Coach J Richard Bell said. "Why don't you wait j about three weeks and see how I stack up among them?" Bell said the adjustment from coaching in the upstairs booth to on the sidelines has not been that hard. "I think coaching is coaching," the 46 * r.?i * ?i- nn;/i ?<T year-oia L.uue uock, imuvc oaiu. * think the biggest adjustment has been trying to watch everything that goes on during the game. It's different because you're isolated within a box, but once the game starts, you shut out the fans' noise." After serving as defensive coordinator for seven years under former USC coach Jim Carlen, Bell was named to the head coach position Jan. 9. According to Bell, the players' adjustment to him was not a major problem because he has worked with them so long. "That was one of the big pluses I had," he said. "I knew all of the players and had coached them at one stage or another. I rli ffnrnnf otfifi lrloc onrl fho\; jtvii^vy viiV/ii utiivi vnv utvnuuvO) uuu knew mine." Bell said he had always wanted a change to coach both offense and defense. "I know there has got to be times when a head coach makes a decision. I want to make certain suggestions. I know Coach Carlen always offered good advice to me. "I enjoy coaching whether I'm an assistant or head coach. I enjoy every aspect of it.

I enjoy every aspect of it I like all of it and I want to coach football.' ? USC Head Football Coach Richard Bell "I think a lot of the game relates to player motivation," he added "You can't put things off because you might find yourself in a hole, and there might not be any way out," he added. Bell has a lot of praise for the team. "This is a good group that plays hard. They are seJf-motivators and they want to win. They realize winning doesn't come easy, but they are willing to pay the price to win. "It's hard work, but I think they can have fun, which is what we are trying to teach," Bell said. Bell said he tries to set a Christian example for his players. "My spiritual life is real to me. I hope to demonstrate it by my actions and my words, and I hope the kids see the type of life I live." Bell said he wants to be remembered as "a player's coach," whose concern was not only if he won a game, but also if he won in life. "I think...that you can't play football when you are 30 years old, and by then, how to tackle won't be much help in life. * * T ^ itiUnf T nn n ph r\r\nrf fVinin in lifo li wnai i ica^ii t uiv.ui in mv, then I think I will have been successful." !4 Olympics ijL JIB Ht/ << |S9 Photo by lours Wilund r player David Goodchild takes a shot on practice.
