MacIntyre resigned after a 3-7-1 season at Vanderbilt, citing "the con tinuous rise in academic standards" as one of the reasons he had difficulty maintaining a quality program. “I certainly don’t condemn the university for these standards," he added, “because in my opinion, there is none better. But I am stating the facts as I see them.” In seven seasons at Vanderbilt, MacIntyre was 25-52-1. A possible successor in Rice Coach Watson Brown was rumored even be fore the firing. While not denying the possibility, Brown said, "I have a dad- gummed good job here.
