Omar Abu Rahma, who grew up in Israel, is a walk-on kicking candi date at Baylor. Except for 23 Texans who went to Arkansas, California sent the most out-of-staters to SWC football with 18. Other leaders are Oklahoma with 15, Louisiana with 10, Missouri and New Mexico with nine each. There are five gridders each from Colorado, Florida and Arkansas, four each from Kansas, Mississippi and Ohio and three each from Alabama, New York, and New Jer sey.

Out-of-staters comprise 46.2 per cent of Arkansas’ squad, the highest of the SWC. SMU replaces Rice this season as the busiest nationwide recruiter. This season 29 per cent of the SMU squad (25 of 86) come from 11 other states, while 21.5 per cent (20 of 93) of the Rice squad are from 14 other states. SMU was the heaviest out- of-state recruiter in ’77 with eight of its 29 signees (27.5 per cent). No other SWC schools approach the Arkansas, SMU and Rice fig ures.
