Pat McDermott used to kick for A&M a few years ago and he comes down every afternoon and tells me what I’m doing wrong. “I was recruited to kick only.

And he is comfortable in Cain Hall. T love Cain. Everybody treats us well. One of the main things here is to make our grades. Coach Bellard wants us to go to class and make our grades. He says that is the first reason we are here, any way. He also wants us to he gentle men on campus, which we all try to be.’ Tony is currently a P. E. major, but he is switching over to the Busi ness Department and going into Marketing. And, of course, he’d like to play pro-football. He likes to hunt and fish and chase women. “I am tickled to death to he here. The coaches are fantastic. The people are great. And we are going to heat the Hell out of Ole Miss.
