Benny Anders, Phi Slama
Jama’s “instant offense” in their
1982-83 second place national
finish, is once again a member of
the University of Houston bas
ketball team, it was announced
Tuesday.
Anders, who quit the team
earlier in the season because he
wanted more playing time,

“I find it very difficult not to

Lewis said. “I have no animosity
towards Benny Anders.”

“being treated more than fair
ly.” Metcalf said that the return
of Anders probably wouldn’t
affect the team too much.
“With or without him, they’re
going to have five good players
on the court,” Metcalf said. “If
they put him out there, they’ll
have to take somebody else off.”
The 6-5, 188-pound Anders
is often referred to as “Instant
Offense” by teammates and
fans. He gained recognition in
the last 17 games of last season
by averaging eight points in 14
minutes per game during that
span. Anders never started last
year, but played in 30 games.
On Dec. 26, after the Cougars
nationally televised victory over
Louisville at the Chaminade’s
Silver Sword classic in Hawaii,
Anders and Braxton Clark told
coach Lewis that they wanted
more playing time. Clark and
Anders were reportedly sent
back to Houston before the
teams next game.
The Cougars lost that game
to Fresno State. The game was
the finals of Chaminade Silver
Sword Classic.
Anders had reportedly tried
to return to the Cougars a few
weeks
jo, but Lewis had re
fused to let him rejoin the team.
But after the Cougars loss to
Kentucky Saturday, Lewis appa
rently had a change of heart.
Anders did seem to care why
he was allowed to rejoin the team
— only that he was glad to be
back playing with the Cougars.
“I don’t think I could play
anywhere with any better people
than all-Americans like Akeem
(Olajuwon) and Michael
(Young),” Anders said. “I am
happy here. I want to go back to
Final Four for the third straight
time.
“I am going to get back into
the flow and get my head
screwed on straight. I’m going to
ask my teammates to help me get
back on the right track.”

After five games Simmons
had gained 259 yards on 30 car
ries, averaging 8.6 yards per car
ry including two straight 100-
yard games against Rice and
Oklahoma, Simmons injured his
left knee in the Arkansas game
Oct. 15 and missed the rest of
the season. After a month’s re
cuperation, Simmons is sche
duled to have surgery on his left
knee to repair a dislocated
kneecap.
Doctors indicated that Sim
mons would miss spring training
and faces extensive rehabilita
tion to be ready for the 1984
season.
And if school officials at UT
get their way, the 1984 season
for Texas may be even tougher.
Texas and Notre Dame are
trying to arrange an intersec
tional football game between the
two traditional national powers
in the mid 1990s, school officials
said Tuesday.
UT Athletic Director DeLoss
Dodds said he and Notre Dame
Athletic Director Gene Gorrigan
are discussing a series for either
the 1994-95 or 1995-96 seasons.
“Corrigan and I talked about
it three different times and each
time he’s been more receptive,”
said Dodds.
The Longhorns and the
Fighting Irish have met eight
previous times in football with
Notre Dame holding a 6-2 edge.
The last three meetings have
been in the Cotton Bowl, the
most recent in 1978 when the
Irish spoiled Texas’ bid for a na
tional championship.
Starting guards George Ger
vin, with eight points, and John
Lucas with four assists fueled
the final charge helping San
