Cowboys begin can: n:
without Sanders, if
The Battalii
WICHITA FALLS (AP) — The
Dallas Cowboys are going
through training camp without
their two best defenders, Deion
Sanders and Leon Lett. They bet
ter get used to playing without
them.
Sanders is recovering from
toe surgery and Lett is suspend
ed for failing yet another drug
test.
The team has no idea when
either will be back; there’s a
good chance neither will suit up
before October.
So with their preseason open
er a week away and the regular
season kicking off Sept. 12, all
the Cowboys can do is wait.
“We just coach the guys who
are here,” coach Chan Gailey
said. “We work with the things
we can control.”
Sanders is with the team at
Midwestern State University,
continuing the rehabilitation on
his rebuilt left big toe.
He is allowed to jog straight
ahead and he’s even playing
some basketball, which forces
him to flex his toes and put pres
sure on them.
Sanders attends every prac
tice wearing a red do-rag with
“Jesus” across the forehead.
He walks around giving tips
to the cornerbacks and occasion-

“It’s becoming far too com

the kids come back. It’s usually
related to playing time.
“It’s not all that uncommon
that kids leave. But there were a
lot of kids that left A&M.”
Watkins coached two seasons
as the head of the University of
North Carolina-Charlotte pro
gram and was hired at A&M in
April of 1998 to revive a program
which finished 11th in the Big 12
in 1998. He said roster changes
are a part of the process of build
ing a new team.
“I haven’t [had roster changes
before] to this degree, but coming in
here, we had to overhaul the team,”
Watkins said. “It’s something I’m
not enjoying. There are kids I’m not
returning, and that’s not something
to rest my hat on. But we have to
get on a solid foundation.”
Sophomore guard Michael
Schmidt is transferring to Niagara
this season where he will sit out
a year before becoming eligible in

Barone, son of former coach
Tony, transferred to Marquette

becoming coach.

he hired Rummer as an assistant
coach after graduation in 1996.
Rummer said Watkins’ origins
might have contributed to the
construction of his talent pipeline
into Louisiana.
“Coach [Watkins] came from a
small town in North Carolina, and
some of the guys we recruit come
from small towns in Louisiana,”
Rummer said. “He’s just built up
contacts over the years.
People know they can believe
him and trust him, and people
don’t want their kids to leave
home unless they know they can
trust somebody.”
Slocum said he trusts Watkins.
