Main Bryan, Texas 28th at Sterling North Gate Bryan, Texas College Station Prompt, Free Delivery Service 3511 Texas Ave. Bryan, Texas By HUGH FULLERTON, JR. Associated Press Sports Writer PITTSBURGH—The annual get together of college coaches and athletic directors starts today with one big unanswered question and a couple of lesser ones that aren’t on the official agenda. The big one: What are they going to do about Oklahoma? Some other questions: Who gets what football coaching job? What happens to the bowl games that weren’t played ? The Oklahoma question is a holdover from last year’s meeting. The Sooners were placed on in definite probation a year ago be cause an investigation failed to turn up the financial details of a recruiting fund that operated from 1952 to 1954. The university couldn’t supply the answer; the man who admin istered the fund wouldn’t open his books and the NCAA ruled Okla homa would have to take the con sequences until the NCAA council could see the figures and decide just how badly the rules had been fractured. A year later the situation ap parently is unchanged but there’s a feeling in some quarters that Oklahoma’s punishment has lasted long enough. “The annual football coaching go-round appears to be of minor importance this year. Only a few major jobs are vacant and any thing that happens here likely will be in the nature of preliminary conversation. The bowl question is a new one. A proposed change in the NCAA by-laws specifies that if a post season game is certified but not played, its certification shall lapse. This mainly affects New York’s Gotham bowl game—approved for December 1960 but unplayed be cause top teams couldn’t be ob tained. The promoters may not even want to try again. Otherwise the week-long series of meetings may not be eventful. The 562 colleges, conferences and allied groups composing the NCAA will act on several bits of legisla tion designed to strengthen the NCAA control over practices in recruiting and financial aid to athletes. Only a few preliminiary com mittee meetings are slated today. The NCAA television committee begins a two-day meeting Saturday with some thoughts of requests to change the program for regional football telecasts.

Perhaps the dark blotches are predominate, since they usually relate to something of value that has been lost— not a loss in a ballgame, but players, coaches, etc. Probably the biggest loss that looms in the minds of any Aggie whether he is a graduate, student or just a fan, is when Paul “Bear” Bryant left for Alabama. It is true that many people were glad to see Bryant leave A&M, but even these still long to see the kind of team he produced— a winner. Next came the “new era” of Jim Myers who was named as head football coach and athletic director in 1958. Since that time, A&M has seen its share of top-notch athletes moved on to greener pastures for one reason or another. Now as the “new era” has seen three losing football seasons, two top assistant coaches have moved on to another job. With the loss of these two coaches, only one assistant is left who started with the Myers staff in 1958. Besides the loss of athletes and coaches, one of the best sports publicity directors in the state, took a position at the University of Texas. From all indications the A&M Athletic Department looks pretty shaky. Probably all these people who have passed through the ranks have had more than one motive for leav ing, but it stands to reason that if a person is satisfied and secure, that he won’t pick up and move. Some of these recent vacancies haven’t been filled and imagine the impression that is created in the minds of both prospective athletes and coaches when they consider com ing to A&M. They can review the happenings of the last few years and these events could make them wonder just what they will be getting into when coming to A&M. It just doesn’t paint a very bright picture. Even though A&M has potentially great talent in ath letes, the supply soon runs out. There must be new blood added and there must be able coaches to lead them. Where does the fault lie? Who knows? But, there is still more room for changes in the athletic staff and with the uncertainty that exists now, these changes might be executed.
