Associated Press Take Your Valentine to Dinner Steak Dinner for Two $15°° t>« Tf f°RX BAY CITY — Hart Lee Dykes, the elusive, glue-fingered blue chip wide receiver from Bay City, did an about-face Wednesday and signed a national football letter of intent with Oklahoma State after he was ru mored headed for either Illinois or Oklahoma. Dykes, the most actively recruited schoolboy in Texas this year, signed with the Cowboys although he never made an official visit to the Cowboy campus. “I had told them no but they kept calling me anyway,” Dykes said shortly after ending the intense re cruiting campaign for his services. “They talked to me and said how much they’d enjoyed recruiting me. “They seemed more interested in me as a person first and then as an athlete and that really touched my heart. I just felt they were more hon est with me.” Dykes did not make an official visit to the Oklahoma State campus at Stillwater, but on a visit to his brother Todd Chambers’ home in Enid drove to visit the school. The first tip off that Dykes was re considering tne Cowboys came early Wednesday when he said Texas A&M was no longer on his list and that Oklahoma State was again being considered. Illinois was believed to have the inside track on signing Dykes be cause of the school’s enipia™ passing attack, one of Djil quirements. “Illinois was nice but it’s away from home,’’ Dykes j know they don’t throw tk much there but the posiii open and 1 think 1’llgetack play.” Dykes caught 94 passesdan peat,, a reel at bay City and IasiLa: B j chain State: head* even ty a all-s receiver and i careei was a first team all-state pei as a wide safety. “I made my decision a cos hours ago but I just now feel lief now that I’ve annoum Dykes said. 22 ozs. of steak, salad bar, homemade rolls, choice of baked potato, french fries or rice February 14 5-10 pm ShiLotf 4 nr- Ag Recruits 4 (continued from page 11) iSTEAKHOUSE 1 *— V— V— who came out of nowhere and made Texas Ave between Southwest Pkwy & Kmart 2528 Texas Ave S.

Besides rushing for 2,885 yards last season, Greene scored 40 touch downs. He was voted All-State the last two seasons and was named Player of the Year by the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal and television station KAMC. Greene’s 90 career touchdowns, 349-yard game and 2,885 yard sea son all rank in the Top 10 in Texas history. Another Lafayette, La. product could make it big as an Aggie run ning back. Acadiana [1 § r Troy Jones was tne leading rusher in the state with 1,856 yards. The three tight ends signed by A&M will probably take over in the ’86 season, when the Aggie tight end corps thin out. Brian Ross caught 18 passes for 275 yards last season for San Angelo (Central). He was named to the Houston Post and Dallas Morning News teams. Broadmoor High School in Baton Rouge gave A&M Cannon, drafted No. 1 by the Dallas Cowboys last sea son. That tie gave the Aggies a tight end prospect. Voted to the state’s Top 22 list, Wally Hartley caught 41 passes last season for 586 yards. Hartley could play defensive end, although he was recruited as a tight end. The Aggies only signed 21 players because of the 95 player restriction. According to NCAA rules, a team can sign as many as 30 players in a season, but cannot have more than 95 players on scholarship. Most of the A&M players are expected to re turn next season, so that curtailed the number of prospects Sherrill could sign. “We only visited 65 Sherrill said. “Wedidnoti; mittmems early.

The Texas Longhorns signed Ed Cunningham, a 6-8, 260 defensive tackle from Sanford-Fritsch. Cun ningham had earlier given a verbal commitment to Texas. Lubbock Dunbar blue chip tight end Sam Collins signed with the Baylor Bears. SWC co-champion Houston picked up Galveston Ball running back Kimoall Anders, 5-10, 200.
