Second-year head coach Kim Helton has had another year to install his offense at Houston, but a number of key starters from 1993 are gone. They in clude the quarterback Jimmy Klingler, running backs Lamar Smith and TiAndre Sanders and consensus All-SWC linebacker Ryan McCoy. Helton is counting on some of his recruits to be able to play. “Eight to 10 freshmen are go ing to play,” Helton said. “We’re going to have to hunt and peck to find the players. We still don’t know 25 percent of the team.” At quarterback, the Cougars do welcome back sophomore Chuck Clements who started four games in 1993 in place of the injured Klingler. Clements passed for 1,216 yards with four touchdowns, but had 10 inter cepted. The backfield will consist of returning lettermen Tommy Guy at fullback and Lawrence McPherson at running back. McPherson ran for 107 yards on 18 carries in 1993 and Guy rushed for 25 yards on 12 car ries. They will be joined by junior college transfers Jermaine Williams and Bryant Henderson. In 1993, Williams had 1,160 yards on the ground for Butler Community College in Kansas. Henderson averaged more than five yards per carry for North eastern Oklahoma A&M last sea son before he suffered a knee in jury, in spring practice. Helton said the Cougars might not use the fullback exten sively in their system. “We have two backs that are capable,” Helton said. “From that we could use a split back of fense. “We don’t have a fullback that has the running and catching skills. We don’t have a bruising fullback,” he said. One position that will be deep for the Cougars in the 1994 sea son will be the wide receiver spot. With the run-and-shoot’s emphasis on passing, Houston had recruited heavily for re ceivers. In 1994, there will be only two receiving spots instead of four.

In the 1993 season he 35 passes for 448 yards with two touchdowns. SS Gerome Williams: Williams is the top returning tackier for the Cougars with 86. He was third overall for the Cougars in 1993.

Peters caught 35 passes for 448 yards in 1993. The other wide receiver will either be sophomore Joey Mouton or se nior Daniel Adams. Tight ends are still relatively scarce at the University of Hous ton. 1993 marked the first time a tight end formation was used in a Cougar formation in six years. Junior college transfer Chris Herold has the starting job at the moment, but he could be chal lenged by freshmen Josh Hardee and Rusty Foster. Four lettermen return to a Houston offensive line that could prove to be an asset for the Cougars. Jimmy Herndon and Billy Milner return to start in the tackle positions. The right guard spot will be filled by Steven Williams, a converted de fensive lineman. The left guard and center po sitions are still up for grabs. At center, Mike Fuller and Jack Hansen will compete for the starting nod. Mark Gray and David Roberts are vying for the left guard spot. Senior Eric Harrison returns as the starter in one tackle posi tion and last season’s backup Mike Meux will take the other tackle spot. The defensive ends will probably be junior Marlon Foots and sophomore Otis Grant. Helton said he is not sure of any of the positions on the defen sive front. The choi< not one c is selfish “The defensive line jobs am; in the air,” Helton said.

Aerobic training is just as, if not more important. There are five guidelines, Coker said, for an overall work out regimen. He said the most important is cardiovascular, which is best achieved through aerobic phosphorylation, where sugars are converted into phos phoric substances. This includes jogging, running, swimming and step aerobics, basically anything that requires continuous motion, Coker suggests remembering the acronym FIT to achieve the maximum cardiovascular work out. FIT stands for Frequency, In tensity and Time. The FIT plan recommends a cardiovascular workout at least three times a week for no less than 20 minutes each session. The workout should raise the heart level to about 80 percent of maximum heart rate. This percentage can be found by subtracting your age from 220, then multiplying this num ber by 80 percent (.80), The four remaining guide lines for an overall workout in clude improvement in muscular strength, endurance, body com position and flexibility. “These five guidelines can be best achieved for most people through a 5(y50 ratio of weight training and aerobic exercise,” Coker said. Along with working out, diet plays an important role in fit ness. The average American diet is made up of 46 percent carbohy- an operating find a place i The choio oversight.

Trying to fill his shoes will be senior Alton Crain and sophomore Matt DuBuc. Parade All-America re cruit Brian Hanspard also has an excellent chance of breaking into the starting role. The receivers still remain a question for Dykes. Not only is Hill gone, but the other top four receivers have left as well. Dykes said some of the new recruits will have to play. “Some of our wide receivers have got to play,” Dykes said. “Some have got to play, but we don’t know which ones.” The tight end position is one area on the offensive side of the ball that was not hit hard by graduation. Two-year starter Scott Aylor returns from a season in 1993'where he made six recep tions, making him the leading re turning receiver. The offensive line that con tained two consensus All-SWC se lections (Brad Elam and Stacey Petrich) in 1993 will have to have some retooling done. Two starters do return in center Scott Fitzgerald and right tackle Jeff Wood. The defense is another story for the Red Raiders. They return nine starters and nine backups from a squad that finished in the top three in rushing defense, passing defense, scoring defense and total defense. Defensive end Byron Wright returns after taking over the starting position midway in 1993. Stephen Gaines, a junior college transfer in 1993, had 57 tackles last season. The Red Raiders are deep at the linebacking position. All three starters from 1993 are re turning. Junior Zack Thomas led the way with 117 tackles in 1993 and juniors Shawn Banks and Antho ny Armour added 108 and 91 re spectively. Perhaps the only strike against the Red Raider secondary is their size. The two comerbacks, senior Cat Adams and junior Shawn Hurd, stand at only 5-8. Howev er, Adams led Tech with four in terceptions in 1993. TCU Continued from Page 3 on juniors Andre Davis and Der rick Cullors. Davis rushed for 867 yards as a sophomore. Cullors returns after breaking a leg in the 1993 season opener against Oklahoma. During the game, he had rushedfor 43 on four carries and returning a kick off 63 yards before the injury oc curred. The fullback position will be filled by 6-0, 220 pound sopho more Koi Woods. Guarding Knake and the backs will be an experienced group of offensive linemen. Only one starter was lost, and, among those returning, seniors Bart Ep person and Barrett Robbins played every offensive snap for the Homed Frogs in 1993. The Horned Frogs return a pair of good receivers. They are senior Jimmy Oliver and sopho more John Washington. Oliver caught 13 passes in 1993 for 172 yards and Washington added an other 19 receptions for 195 yards. The tight end position will be m a strength for TCU in 1994. Jt nior Brian Collins will return ai ter being second on the teal with 37 receptions in 1993. Het on several preseason All-SWC lists.
