Longhorns head football coach John Mackovic says. Hadnot satisfied NCAA stan dards with his summer school grades, but had not met mini mum university standards, offi cials said. “Butch did have an appeal, but it was not accepted. He has been told he has been dismissed from the university. He could be eligible to return in the spring," Mackovic said Tuesday. A dean of communications indicated to Texas athletic de partment officials that Hadnot's history of poor class attendance was the primary reason for denying the appeal. The Dallas Morning News reported. Hadnot's academic status has been under scrutiny since Texas Tech officials said he didn't have the grades to qualify for a scholarship, but Texas gave him a scholarship. The NCAA inves tigated the circumstances of Hadnot's qualifying entrance exam test scores before clearing him for freshman eligibility. Hadnot, the team's leading rusher the past two seasons, said after a disappointing sophomore season under former UT head coach David McWilliams that he had consid ered leaving Texas because he didn't appear to figure promi nently in Mackovic's pass-ori ented offense. He caught only 1£ two passes for 6 yards last sea son. Mackovic suspended Hadnot earlier this month for visiting a Texas A&M practice to inquire about transferring. To be rein stated, Mackovic said, Hadnot needed to successfully complete his summer work, begin classes in a proper fashion in the fall, and make amends with his teammates. During last spring's prac tices, Hadnot was considered the Longhorns' No. 4 running back.
