Razorbacks’ 82-77 loss Sated
blows chance to move up in pa
ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Arkansas Razorbacks know
exactly how Mike Tyson feels. They
got knocked out by nobody famous.
David Wesley was Arkansas’ Bus
ter Douglas.
Wesley, an unheralded sopho
more guard from Longview who has
been nursing a leg fracture most of
the season, damaged the third-
ranked Hogs’ chances to move up in
the national polls Saturday.
The Bears snapped Arkansas’ 12-
game winning streak with an 82-77
ambush as Wesley hit 12 of 12 free
throws, got six steals and scored 23
points.
The Hogs are still coasting toward
the Southwest Conference title with
an 11-1 league ledger and a 20-3
overall mark, but the loss could hurt
them in the NCAA playoff seedings.
Arkansas was almost certain to
move to No. 2 before the upset.
“Well, at least the pressure is off,”
said Arkansas coach Nolan Richard
son. “The kids couldn’t go anywhere
without a microphone in their faces.
Maybe we can regroup now.”
Arkansas has a road game left
against Texas Christian in Fort
Worth on Wednesday night, then
Finishes with three straight games at
Barnhill Arena in Fayetteville.
“Coach Richardson told us to
keep our heads up and that the sea
son’s not over,” said Lee Mayberry,
who led the Hogs with 16 points.

Roll call for the college football recruit
ing class of February 1986.
Most came out of high school a certified,
can’t-miss blue-chipper. A few of them
made it. Most didn’t. Few found college
football what they expected when they
signed their letters of intent four years ago.
Four names dominated Texas football
recruiting four Februaries back: wide re
ceiver Percy Waddle of Columbus, quar
terback Lance Pavlas of Tomball, running
back Harvey Williams of Hempstead and
linebacker Melvin Foster of Yates.
Waddle was the king of the hill, an all-
state receiver who set state records for re
ceptions and receiving yardage. Recruiting
Emfinger rated him as one of
analyst Max
the top 10 players in the nation.
Waddle, however, became the first
prominent player to fall victim to Proposi
tion 48, the NCAA’s stiffened academic re
quirements that took effect in 1986. He
signed with Texas A&M, sat out a year and
played three years for the Aggies, complet
ing his eligibility last fall with 53 catches for
847 yards and six touchdowns.
Waddle, who still has faint hopes of
catching on with an NFL team, doesn’t re
gret going to A&M. He is, however, frus
trated by his lack of performance and dis
appointed that Proposition 48 — and his
own lack of academic preparation —
wrecked his high school dreams.
“I guess it’s a good rule, but they
shouldn’t take the whole year (of eligibility)
from you,” Waddle said. “It hurt me a lot
when they took that year from me. Then
when I became eligible, I put too much
pressure on myself to perform. Finally, this
year (when he made 30 catches and was all
conference), I eased my mind.”
All-America plaudits have eluded Pavlas,
who came out of Tomball touted as the sec
ond coming of Vinny Testaverde, 1985’s
Heisman Trophy winner from Miami. He
signed with A&M and, after a redshirt year,
played well in the Cotton Bowl after the
1987 season.
Pavlas lost his starting job in 1988 but re
gained it last season and completed 134 of
227 passes, second-best in school history.
1990 is his final year of eligibility.
Several prospects lost a year of eligibility
due to Proposition 48. Only one of them
achieved college stardom — quarterback Sal
Aunese of Colorado — and his legend came
not in life, but after his death from stomach
cancer last September at age 21. The Buffa
loes dedicated their season to Aunese, fin
ishing the regular season unbeaten and
ranked No. 1 in the country before losing to
Notre Dame in the Orange Bowl.
an,
Others are still struggling with lit
termath of high school stardom. Clat
Hall, both of whom signed with Oklali
are serving prison sentences forara;
the Sooners’ athletic dorm.
Contrast that with the tale of Yates
ning back Johnny Bailey, anotherPrt
tion 48 candidate who spurned thei
college ranks and signed with Texas
where he could play immediately.
