AUSTIN — Victor Mitchell, a 6-
IOV2 junior college All-America from
Amarillo College who had signed
with the University of Texas, now
has signed a Big Eight Conference
letter of intent with the University of
Kansas.
Mitchell, who averaged 26.6
points and 13.6 rebounds per game
in the 1979-80 season, signed
Wednesday with Kansas. He signed
last year with Texas, but could not
qualify academically for admission
and remained at Amarillo another
year.
Mitchell told reporters in Amarillo
that Texas’ signing of Mike Wacker, a
6-8 prospect from San Marcos, influ
enced his decision against coming to
Texas.
“That pushed me,” he said. “I
really had planned to go to Texas. I
liked Coach (Barry) Dowd and Coach
(Abe) Lemons. The fact that he’s an
All-American and I’m an All-
American and no All-American is
going to sign to go someplace and sit
on the bench. They told me they
were recruiting him, but I didn’t ex
pect him to sign with Texas.”
Mitchell said he was concerned
that he, Wacker and Texas sopho
more center LaSalle Thompson all
would play post for the Longhorns,
forcing at least one of them to the
bench.
Lemons was philosophical about
not signing Mitchell.
“You can’t lose anything you never
had,” Lemons said.
Asked his reaction to Mitchell’s
comments that the signing of Wacker
influenced him against coming to
Texas, Lemons replied, “Anybody
that’s afraid of that, I wouldn’t want
him.”

The Texas A&M football team will
conclude spring football drills this
Saturday with the Maroon-White
game.
The game will be played at Kyle
Field at 2 p.m. Tickets are on sale at
the ticket office in G. Rollie White
Coliseum and will be sold at Kyle
Field Saturday. Tickets are $3 for
adults and $1 for children.
Head coach Tom Wilson’s starting
backfield will consist of Mike Mosley
at quarterback, Earnest Jackson at
tailback and Elvis Walker at fullback.
At the beginning of the spring
drills a month ago. Walker was a
third-string tailback. That was before
David Hill, Ronnie James and Roger
Wiley went down with injuries.
Wiley will be lost for the season with
torn ligaments in his left knee.
James, with a broken ankle, and Hill,
with a pulled hamstring muscle, will
return for the fall season.
Jackson also won his job by de
fault. Engaged in a neck and neck
brace with Johnny Hector, Jackson
won the job a week and a balf ago
when Hector went down with a
bruised shoulder.
Wilson says he’s not particularly
worried about his depleted back-
field, confident he’ll have a healthy
one when the fall rolls around. What
he is worried about is the team’s
depth.
“Our first units and some reserves
have performed well, but we have to
have adequate depth,” he said.
“We’ll have to get a lot of depth from
the freshmen coming this fall.”
Wilson says he’s particularly con
cerned with the tight end and punt
ing positions. There will be no punt
ing in the Maroon-White game, and
Wilson said earlier in the week punt
ing duties would be won by someone
in the fall. He said depth tight end
will come from the freshmen crop he
has coming this fall.
Other than Wiley, the Aggies have
I only lost one other player for the
season. Second-team center Cal Lil-
ley was lost for the season two weeks
1 ago with practically the same injury
i as Wiley’s. They will both go through
j a nine-month rehabilitation program
! together.
