A&M football Update
Key injuries bother Slocum, Aggies
Prom Staff amd Wire 'keports
Texas A&M head football
coach R.C. Slocum is having a
hard time getting work done dur
ing practice because of the number
of injuries A&M has to key play
ers.
Those players unable to partic-
ipatein Wednesday's practice in
cluded running backs Randy Sim
mons (knee), Keith McAfee
(pulled hamstring), and Rodney
Thomas (knee). Fullback Clif
Groce (shoulder), and defensive
linemen Kevin Tucker (ankle) and
Sam Adams (shoulder), are also
injured.
Slocum said he was disap
pointed with Wednesday's prac
tice.
"It was a hot, muggy day and I
thought we gave in a little bit,"
Slocum said. "We have a lot of
work to do to get ready for next
week."
A&M begins the 1991 season at
Kyle Field Sept. 14 against
Louisiana State University.
"The injuries are affecting
some of the work," he said. "It's
hard to work, we're not able to get
as many repititons."
Redshirt freshman Greg Hill
and junior fullback Doug Carter
were the only running backs able
to practice yesterday.
Practices remain closed to the
public until after the LSU game .
Miami, UH start "trashtalk"
CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP)
Houston coach John Jenkins ac
cused the Miami Hurricanes of
"trash-talking" Wednesday and
said his team will have nothing
more to say about Miami until af
ter the teams meet next Thursday
night.
"Due to the fact that we've
seen a lot of hype, a lot of conver
sation, a lot of derogatory re
marks, particularly by Miami
players, we've elected not to make
any stand as far as commenting, as
far as comparisons or just any gen
eral comments about the Hurri
canes," Jenkins said.
"We're not going to get into a
trash-talking contest."
The pledge was surprising be
cause Jenkins himself has a repu
tation for flamboyant remarks.
His ire surfaced during a con
ference telephone call.
Jenkins said he was especially
upset by comments Miami defen
sive end Anthony Hamlet made
about the lOth-ranked Cougars
and quarterback David Klingler.
"They just have one player.
We put Klingler out of the game
and they've got nothing left,"
Hamlet said. "They've got some
good receivers, but compared to
our receivers, they've got nothing.
Plus they've got to play in the Or
ange Bowl. That's our house. We
don't lose there.
"I just hope Houston's ready."
Hamlet made the remarks fol
lowing third-ranked Miami's 31-3
victory Saturday at Arkansas. He
later said the comments were tak
en out of context.
Also catching Jenkins' eye
were remarks by Miami running
back Martin Patton about the
Cougars.
"I think we are the better
team," Patton said. "In fact I know
we are. Bring them on."
Jenkins bristled when he read
the quotes in Houston newspa
pers.
"The way I see it is, this is not
a World Wrestling Federation
match, OK?" Jenkins said. "This is
going to be for real on national TV.
We're going to play the game.
We're not going to talk it up prior
to the contest."
Miami coach Dennis Erickson,
who is waging a campaign to
erase the Hurricanes' reputation
for taunting and showboating, re
sponded to Jenkins' comments
with a shrug.
"I don't know what he's talk
ing about," Erickson said. "I don't
know whether our players said
anything derogatory or not. I
didn't hear them say anything
derogatory. The bottom line is we
play the game Thursday."

Lady Aggie Raychelle Michalke slams
volleyball over defender in A&M’s
victory over Lamar Wednesday night at
G. Rollie White Coliseum. The Aggies
defeated Lamar University in three
games 15-11,15-5,15-5.
L ady Continued from pa9e 4
ence and mature."
In the third game, A&M scored
eight consecutive points from the
serves of McMath and sophomore
Bella Parikh. McMath and junior
Raychelle Michalke tied for most
team kills with seven.
Sophomore Amy Kisling con
verted 50 percent of her kills but
more importantly was a force at
the net for the Aggies.
Junior outside attacker Eliza
beth Edmiston sat out Wednes
day's match to rest the sore shoul
der she injured in last weekend's
tournament.
Edmiston will also sit out the
Lady Aggies' match Thursday
against University of North Texas.
"We're not looking past North
Texas at all," Givens said. "I don't
think we're that good a ball club
that we can look past anyone.
"We're going to savor this to
day because we're even now, and
that's not where we want to be,"
Givens said. "We want to get over
.500 and that opportunity comes
tomorrow."
Thursday's match will start at 7
p.m. at G. Rollie White Coliseum.
Cougars tout Southwest Conference players of the week
HOUSTON (AP) - David
Clingler is constantly being asked
to divulge the secrets of 10th
ranked Houston's run-and-shoot
offense and he has a simple reply.
There are no secrets; it's good
flayers, just like any other offense.
"The personnel we have in this
offense is really great," Klingler
said. "It's taken us four or five
fears to get the personnel re
quired to be dangerous at all posi
tions.
Klingler was armed and dan
gerous in the season opener Satur
day, flinging nine touchdown
passes, including an NCAA
record six in one quarter, as the
Cougars riddled Louisiana Tech
73-3.
Klingler completed 36 of 57
passes for 510 yards to earn The
Associated Press pick as the SWC
offensive player of the week.
The SWC defensive honor
went to Cougar linebacker Tyrone

Davis, making a comeback from
an injury that caused him to miss
the final six games of last season.
Davis had six tackles, includ
ing three for 23 yards in losses, re
covered a fumble and had two
sacks in helping the defense hold
Louisiana Tech to 130 total yards.
Houston's run-and-shoot of
fense is more effective this season
because the Cougars are stockpil
ing receivers, Klingler said’.
"We've always had guys like
Jason Phillips and James Dixon
playing in the slot but now we've
got wideouts catching three touch
downs per game," Klingler said.
"It's really balanced and that's the
key to any offense."
"The way we play is going to
produce those type scores, either
in our favor or against us," Klin
gler said. "Last year, Texas beat us
pretty bad.
That's just the way it goes with
this offense.
