    A&M football, big
topic among coaches
Often my name has been con
fused with another David Walker
around these parts but I usually
don’t have any trouble when I go out
of town.
I went out of town last week and I
did have name problems. This time
every time I turned around some
one said, “Hi, coach.
While I obviously don’t look like a
quarterback, I must have looked
enough like a coach to be called one.
Another reason being that if you
By
David Walker
didn’t know someone’s name it was
a safe bet to call them coach and you

‘Some Mo’
Another Shofner connection from
the Browns helped land soph
fullback Gerry Modzelewski from
Ohio. His uncles are Ed and Dick
Modzelewski of “Big Mo” and “Lit
tle Mo” fame at Maryland and with
Cleveland and New York in the
NFL. They called little brother
Gene, who attended New Mexico,
by the nickname of “No Mo. Now
that nephew Gerry has come along
you might say there is “Some Mo”
would be right.
This all took place at the annual
Texas High School Coaches Associa
tion meetings in Fort Worth.
Everywhere you looked you
could see coaches, it seemed like
there were at least 80,000 of them.
One Dallas scribe said that you
/'} could tell how many coaches were in
‘ attendance by taking the total
number of white shoes and divid
ing them by two. (My quick method
of predicting attendance without
the math was to just count the white
belts.)
Coaching school is a strange
thing. It’s kind of like New York, it’s
a nice place to visit but you wouldn’t
want to live there.
Unlike most schools, people
didn’t walk around with bpqkjjC You
could see in almost any corner
coaches talking about what some
other coach had said or done. “I
can’t understand why he didn’t run
him at halfback instead of quarter
back,” one would say.
Then there are the coaches who
are at coaching school to find a job.
You could tell who they were easy,
their shoes were whiter and shinier
than the ones that have jobs.
The big talk around coaching
school was none other than our own
Texas Aggies. The general feeling
that I got was that everyone is as
high on the Aggies as I am. If I heard
it once, I heard it 50 times: “If the
Aggies can find a steady quarter
back, they will be hard to beat.
I watched Emory Bellard at
breakfast Friday morning. He never
had more than 30 seconds at a time
without someone dropping by to say
hello and wish him good luck. I can
just hear the coaches around the
state this year if the Aggies do have
the season that everyone thinks
they will have, “Yep, me and Emory
talked about that last year at coach
ing school.”
It’s so nice to he with a winner. . .
even if you have to eat cold eggs.
Other happenings around coach
ing school that has local interest. . .
Aggie Ex-basketballer Cedric
Joseph was at the all-star basketball
game and told me that he was work-
ing on a deal to play basketball over
seas this year. If that falls through
Classified he’ll be back in <idho3Tat A&M in the
fall .... If you wonder why we
don’t have a story about Emory Bel-

Astrodome releases
fall sports schedule
The Astrodome will soon sound to the music of college
bands and the roar of football crowds. The 1975 gridiron season
begins Saturday, August 16, when the Houston Oilers and the
Washington Redskins meet in a pre-season exhibition match at
8 p.m.
The Astrodome’s strong schedule this year lists a total of
25 regularly-set fall games, including ten Oiler home games, six
Cougar games (with the U. of H.-Rice and U. of H.-SMU
matches in the Astrodome), five Texas Southern U. games and
the annual post-season Astro Bluebonnet Bowl classic.
Also included for the first time are three pre-scheduled
high school games on the Astrodome football calendar — a
double-header on Sept. 12, featuring Sam Houston vs. Lee and
Yates vs. Worthing—and the traditional Kashmere-Washington
rivalry. Regional and state high school championship play-offs
may be added later.
