Sports Editor Nadja Sabawala 845-2688 :
SWC pulls in recruits
Kermit Da
vis Jr. has
more ground
to build the
Texas A&M
men’s basket
ball program
by signing
three top
Texas high
school players
to letters-of-
intent
Wednesday.
Wednesday
was the first
day of the
w e e k 1 o n g
NCAA early
signing period
for several
sports, includ
ing basketball
and baseball.
The early
signing period
ends Nov. 21.
During the
first day of
early signing,
the Aggies
signed: Long
view Pine Tree
forward Kevin
Barker (6-9,
215), Con
verse Judson
forward
Damon John
son (6-6, 215)
and Corey
Henderson, a
6-6, 18 0-
pound guard
from Houston
Lee.
All three
signees have passed either the
ACT or SAT college entrance ex
amination.
“Kevin, Corey and Damon are
all solid players with good aca
demic backgrounds,” said head
coach Davis. “We think that each
one will make a tremendous con
tribution to our program.”
Barker, averaging 19 points
and 14.5 rebounds per game as a
junior, was a unanimous all-dis
trict selection and was runner-up
in voting for the j«th&irict’s most
valuable player.
As an All-East^ J’exas choice
earning honorable mention all-
state honors, Barker connected
60 percent of his three-point at
tempts. Barker is a member of
^mBWi
Kermit Davis Jr.
the Dallas Times Herald’s state
top 20.
Like Barker, Johnson averaged
19-6 points per game and was a
unanimous all-district selection.
He, too, is a member of the Dallas
Times Herald’s top 20 list and
chose A&M over Oklahoma and
Colorado.
“I like A&M a lot,” Barker said.
“I found it to be a pretty good sit
uation. They have a young, en
ergetic coach. I know they’re
going to win and I’m excited and
ready to be a part of it.”
Henderson, whose brother
Chuck is a member of A&M’s
Sixth Man team, averaged 15
points per game and chose the
University over Arizona, Vander
bilt, Boston
College and
Providence.
“I wanted to
play with my
brother and I
liked the envi
ronment and
the academics
at A&M,”
Henderson
said. “With the
new arena be
ing built and
the young
coaching staff,
I felt like it was
the place for
me.”
Elsewhere
in the South
west Confer
ence, the Ar-
k a n s a s
Razorbacks,
who made it to
the Final Four
last season and
had a No. 2
national rank
ing in this
year’s pre-sea-
son Associated
Press poll,
hope their bas-
ketball for
tunes continue
to improve.
Arkansas
coach Nolan
Richardson
apparently
outrecruited
Kansas,
UNLV, De-
Paul, Ken
tucky, Rice
and Georgetown for one of the
nation’s top high school players,
6-9 center John Carter of Atar-
Spencer High School in Okla
homa City.
For 1991-92, the Texas Long
horns have seven scholarships
available. They have received oral
commitments from Terrence
Rencher, a 6-3 guard from New
York City; Todd Barton, a 6-9
center from Columbus, Texas;
Michael Richardson, a 6-3 guard
from West Texas Junior College;
and Rob Garner, a 6-1 guard
from Oxon Hill, Md.
Both Texas Tech and Baylor
each received three oral commit
ments and Rice finished its re
cruiting for the year with two.

World League
announces season
Louisiana TV
announces
/\ ^ ft -f-*i'V-
DALLAS (AP) — The World
League of American Football an
nounced Wednesday that it will kick
off its inaugural season on schedule
in March 1991 with a three-division,
10-team alignment that will include
seven North American cities and
three European sites.
The announcement was made by
President Mike Lynn, following a re
port to shareholders in the unique
operation.
Charter franchises and a divisio
nal setup include:
•Europe: London, Barcelona
and Frankfurt.
•North America East: New York,
Montreal, Orlando, Fla., and the
Carolinas.
•North American West, Sacra
mento, Calif., San Antonio, and Bir
mingham, Ala.
Lynn said that the team in the
Carolinas will either be Raleigh or
Charlotte, and that decision will be
made by Dec. 1.
Lynn said the owners of the fran
chises will be announced beginning
today as he embarks on a tour to the
franchise sites.
“Starting today, we will hold a se
ries of press conferences in league
cities involving ownership, front of
fice executives, team nicknames, lo
gos, and uniform colors and other
league news,” said Lynn, who has
approved franchise ownership com
mitments in eight of the cities.
“For businesses reasons, the
league will own and operate the
London and Frankfurt franchises
and will announce management
groups for those franchises,” he
said.
The league will announce its 1991
playing schedule by Dec. 1, includ
ing its inaugural World Bowl
championship location.
The WLAF will open its 10-week
regular season on March 23 with
semifinal playoffs game scheduled
for June 1-2, followed by the World
Bowl on June 9.
ABC Sports will televise a national
game of the week each Sunday and
USA Network will cablecast prime
time games every Saturday and
Monday nights. There will also be
six telecasts on Saturday afternoons
during the season.
The league will have its first
player evaluation combine and draft
Feb. 11-24 in Orlando.
“We’ve signed some 100 players
and we intend to sign about 1,000
players by February,” Lynn said.
Lynn said that he received no op-
E osition from the NFL about the
:ague, although some of the share
holders discussed whether the
spring league should have been de
layed a year because of the unstable
economy.
“It was decided that the time to
negotiate is over and that everything
is in place and we need to go on with
it,” Lynn said.
Louisiana TV
announces
Archer’s firing
BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) —
Louisiana State University offi
cials have decided to fire football
coach Mike Archer at the end of
what could be his team’s second
consecutive losing season, a tele
vision station reported Wednes
day night.
Chancellor Bud Davis and ath
letic director Joe Dean denied the
report by WBRZ-TV. Archer
cautioned his team not to be dis
tricted by such stories.
“There’s no truth to the story,”
said Davis.
“A decision has not been made.
It will come after the season, as
we have said all along,” said
Dean.
WBRZ-TV quoted unidenti
fied LSU sources as saying Arch
er's fate was sealed after the Ti
gers’ 24-3 loss last weekend to
Alabama, The loss dropped LSU
to 4-5 for the season with games
remaining against Mississippi
State and Tulane.
The station said Dean and Da
vis made the decision to fire
Archer, and have received the
support of members of LSU’s
Board of Supervisors.
Mack Brown, head coach at
North Carolina, is reportedly at
the top of Dean’s list to replace
Archer, WBRZ-TV said.
Judge upholds coin flip holding
Chapel Hill from 4A playoffs
AUSTIN (AP) — A state district judge Wednesday
upheld a coin flip that will prevent the defending Class
4A Chapel Hill High School football champions from
going to the playoffs.
The ruling by Judge Will Wilson leaves Corsicana
and Athens as District 17-4A representatives to the
playoffs. Attorneys for Chapel Hill said they will not ap
peal.
“This is a great disappointment,” said Jim Cunning
ham, president of the Chapel Hill school board.
Wilson’s ruling followed a 1 'A-hour court hearing;
and an hour-long meeting with attorneys behind closed
doors in his chamber.
“The only thing that hurts is we’re the defending 4A
champions, and to not be given the opportunity to go
back, that’s what really hurts,” Cunningham said.
Chapel Hill, which is outside Tyler, sued the Univer
sity Interscholastic League to contest Saturday’s coin
flip that eliminated Chapel Hill and allowed Athens
and Corsicana to advance to the playoffs.
Chapel Hill attorney Jim Raup of Austin said the Dis
trict 17-4A executive committee bypassed its own rules
when it allowed the teams to flip coins for playoff
berths, rather than consider first downs and penetra-
“This is not about football, it’s about following rules,”
Raup said.
The district’s tiebreaker system depends on team re
cords against each other, then points scored against
each other. But the point differential has a 21-point cap
to prevent teams from running up the score.
