Oil’s Bosworth ineligible for NFL droll
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) —
Oklahoma linebacker Brian Bos
worth did not make contact with
the NFL by Monday’s deadline
and thus is ineligible for the April
28 draft, a league official said.
Joel Bussert, director of player
personnel for the NFL, said
shortly before his office closed
that Bosworth had not submitted
the required written statement
saying he wished to be included
in the regular draft.
“We don’t have anything, and
it has to be in writing,” Bussert
said. “A phone call would not be
sufficient.”
Had he heard from Bosworth
at all?
“No,” Bussert said.
Earlier Monday, Bosworth said
he had not made up his mind. Ef
forts to reach him in Norman,
Okla. and at his parents’ home in
Irving, later in the day were un
successful.
Bosworth may now choose to
enter a supplemental draft to be
held later this year, or he can re
turn to Oklahoma where he has
one year of eligibility remaining.
If the two-time All-America re
turns to school, however, it likely
won’t be to play football. Okla
homa Coach Barry Switzer has
said Bosworth will not he back,
and the linebacker has not taken
part in spring drills.
Bosworth, 6-feet-2 and 240
pounds, was expected to be one
of the top five players drafted.
His reluctance to enter the draft
centered mainly on his wish not
to play for the Indianapolis Colts
or Buffalo Bills, who have the sec
ond and third picks.
UT will contest some
of NCAA’s allegations
AUSTIN (AP) — The University
of Texas plans to contest less than
half of the 62 allegations the NCAA
made against the school’s football
program, a school lawyer said.
The final report to the National
Collegiate Athletic Association will
include denials of allegations made
concerning excessive entertainment
money for student athletes during
recruits’ visits, attorney Knox Nun-
nally told the Austin American-
Statesman.
Nunnally said the report, which is
about 70 pages, was being sent by
special delivery to the NCAA Mon
day.
The report is broken down into
four areas. The school classified the
allegations as those it considers sub
stantially correct, those considered
correct but with mitigating circum
stances, those involving conflicting
evidence and those UT denies.
“A lot of those on the entertain
ment expenses are denied,” Nun-
nally said, citing six charges that UT
made at least 10 payments to UT
athletes ranging up to $80 more
than the $20 per diem.
“There is also conflicting evidence
on the legal assistance given by (Aus-
K.C.’s Jackson starts
season on right foot
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) —
Bo Jackson’s double off the wall
was more impressive to Dave
Winfield than the home run he
hit into a strong wind.
“That ball was PAST him,” the
New York Yankees right-fielder
told teammate Rickey Hender
son. “That ball was already past
him in the strike zone. It should
have been a swing and a miss, or a
foul ball.”
“You mean the shot he hit over
your head?” Henderson asked
with a grin.
Just 17 months ago, Vincent
Edward “Bo” Jackson was cap
ping a brilliant college football ca
reer in which he rushed for more
than 4,000 yards and won the
Heisman Trophy. In baseball,
which only close friends knew was
his favorite sport, he had only
about 200 at-bats in college
games.
After spurning millions of dol
lars from the NFL’s Tampa Bay
Buccaneers, he holds or shares
the Royals’ team lead in runs,
hits, total bases and RBI. Includ
ing 25 games he played in Kansas
City last September, the muscular
225-pounder has hit the longest
home run in Royals Stadium his
tory and legged out eight infield
singles.
“I’m enjoying myself. I’m hav
ing the time of my life,” he said.
“And the more I play, the better
I’ll get. I feel like I’m 100 percent
better than I was last September.”
The Royals shocked a lot of
baseball purists by deciding to
start the unpolished tailback-
turned-outfielder in left field this
season. But after three games
against the White Sox and three
against the Yankees, he’s hitting
.417 with an on-base percentage
of .714. He punished the Yankees
“I’m enjoying myself.
I’m having the time of
my life. And the more I
play, the better I’ll get. I
feel like I’m 100 percent
better than I was last
September. ”
— Bo Jackson
to the tune of 8-for-12 with a
home run, fi\e RBI and an oppo
site-field double that Winfield
feels should never have hap
pened.
Jackson did strike out seven
times in the first six games. He’s
also been guilty of a couple of
judgment errors in the outfield.
But the good has far outweighed
the bad.
“I said this spring that it was re
markable the progress he had
made from last year to this year,”
said John Schuerholz, Royals
general manager. “But it is even
more remarkable the progress
he’s made this first week.”

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers,
who pick first, will take Miami
quarterback Vinny 1 estaverde.
1 he Heisman Trophy winner has
already signed a contract with the
Buccaneers.
Bosworth has said he prefers to

Los Angeles.
He was interested in plaving
with the Philadelphia Eagles and
their coach. Buddy Rvan. The
Eagles play on artificial turf and
w„n only five ga mes last year hut
think our situation wouldbeven

nally said. “ We’re not sure the ath
letes got something that wasn't also
available to other student-athletes.”
Walker was alleged to have pro
vided legal assistance to 26 Long
horn athletes, but the lawyer also
was found to have assisted 190 other
UT students.
Mitigating circumstances were
discovered on some of the allega
tions involving 15 loans to athletes
totaling $670, Nunnally said.
Nunnally and UT officials will
meet with the NCAA Infractions
Committee fora preliminary confer
ence before the schools official
hearing at Hilton Head, S.C., April
24-26.
The NCAA sent a letter to U I ol-
ficials in March alleging rides viola
tions in 19 categories in the Long
horns’ football program from 1980
through 1986.
The allegations included loam
and gil ts of small amounts of cash to
athletes, the loan of automobiles,
and entertainment cash in excess of
that allowed by NC \A rid s lor ath

to the campus, Nunnally said in
March.

From the Associated Press
Af ter upsetting the powerful Ed
monton Oilers in a tough seven-
game playoff series last year and los
ing only once to them in eight regu
lar-season NHL games this year, the
Calgary Flames were looking for
ward to a postseason rematch with
their provincial rivals.
But the Flames may not get that
chance if Winnipeg continues to
have its way in their Smythe Division
semifinal series. The Jets rallied
from a 2-0 deficit Sunday night lo
beat the Flames 4-3 in Game 4 and
lead the best-of-seven series 3-1. The
Jets can clinch the series with a vic
tory tonight at Calgary.
At Quebec, the Nordiques re
bounded from two losses at Hart
ford to tie their Adams Division se
ries at 2-2 with weekend triumphs.
The Nordiques failed to win at Hart
ford during the regular season, and
Game 5 is there tonight.
