ie difference: Jackie

I’m spending a lot more time
the players this year. It
Holtz said he’s still trying to
learn about his team. The
Razorbacks hold the first of two
spring games Saturday at Razor-
back Stadium. “I really don’t
have no idea what will happen,”
he said. Most of our players ha
ven’t been on the field in game-
type conditions. We’re awfully
young, but I’m sure it will be a
physical game.”
Catchy idea: It seems that
Sherrill’s idea of a spring alumni
game is catchy. Ray Alborn,
Rice head coach, is gearing up
for the Rice alumni game Satur
day afternoon at Rice Stadium.
Contract helps: Now that
the college basketball season is
over, most coaches are turning
their attention to recruiting.
Sherrill said that the extension
of Aggie basketball coach Shel
by Metcalf’s contract should
help Texas A&M in the recruit
ing war. “It’s (recruiting) not
over with yet, but I would think
it did help him,” Sherrill said.
Sherrill is a good person to
ask about recruiting. His work-
a-holic attitude on the recruiting
trail helped him get some of
Texas’ top football recruits:
“I’ve had four days off since last
year, but I’m just trying to get in
the position of being successful.
I’m very fortunate to have a wife
that understands that the time
we have together is very limited.
She knows that one of these days
we’ll have more time together.”

AUSTIN — The SMU Mus
tangs, who captured the NCAA
indoor track and field cham
pionship last month in Detroit,
will be among the favorites in
the chase for the team trophy at
the Texas Relays, which opens
its two-day run today at Memo
rial Stadium.
More than 1,650 athletes
from 175 universities, junior
colleges and high schools wijl
take part in what is regarded as
the first major outdoor test for
the top competitors in the south
west.
SMU took advantage of its
standout crew of eight men to
win its first national title at the
NCAA indoor meet and the
Mustangs will be among those
expected to challenge for the
outdoor championship when it
is conducted in two months in
Houston.
The Mustangs made their
first outdoor appearance of the
season last week in Arizona and
coach Ted McLaughlin put a
1,600-meter relay team on the
track that ran a 3:03.99 — a sur
prisingly good time for so early
in the year.
The team of Leslie Brooks,
Rod Jones, Eric Josjo and Rus
sell Mitchell turned in a clocking
that was almost a full second bet
ter than any other Southwest
Conference team has had this
year and which was almost four
seconds under the NCAA qual
ifying standard.
In addition, five-time NCAA
shot put champion Michael Car
ter tossed the shot 68-0 l A to
establish himself as the favorite
this week at the Texas Relays.
Carter will be out to avenge an
upset loss to Texas’ Oskar
Jakobsson at this year’s South
west Conference indoor meet.
Jakobsson’s best outdoors this
season has been a 66-1 l A.
Only eight finals will be held
tonight with the highlight ex
pected to come in the 3,200-
meter relay. The Arkansas

— Tom Moloney and Stanley
Redwine — who were a part of
the team that set the relays re
cord of 7:17.39 in the event last
year.
In addition to Carter and its
1,600-meter relay team, SMU
standouts include triple jumper
Keith Connor and javelin throw
er Ronald Bradstock, who
should battle Texas’ Einar Vilh-
jalmsson for the gold medal in
that event.
The individual performer
which will have the most atten
tion cast upon him, however, is
pole vaulter Billy Olson.
Olson heads a strong field in
the vault, which will be held on
Saturday.
