SPORTS The University Daily KANSAN 1. September 8,1983 Page 14 TCU coach prepares for KU game while squad is rebuilding By JEFF CRAVENS Associate Sports Editor Texas Christian University coach Jim Wacker is in the same position KU coach Mike Gottfried was in last week and he's not sure whether that's a benefit or a hindrance. Wacker is in his first year as coach of the Horned Frogs and, like Gottfried, is trying to rebuild a struggling program. He said the team included a 30-19 loss to the Jayhawks. The game against KU at 7:30 Saturday night in Fort Worth is TCU's first of the season, while the Jayhawks attack against Northern Illinois University. "Obviously we'd like to have a game under our belt," Wacker said yesterday. "You're always better off playing and seeing what you need to work on." "we have an advantage in that we were able to scout Kansas." Wacker saw NIU roll up 273 rushing vards against KU. "We believe in a balanced attack," Wacker said. "We have different concerns with different defenses, so I don't know how we'll do." "We won our first game of the year 68-8 last Saturday, but that was our first, second and third-string offense against our fifth-t team defense." the horned Frogs will run a ever offense led by junior quarterback Anthony Gulley. A starter last season, the Falcons' third-ranked saffiraffa this fall for the starting position Wacker is expecting big things from sophomore half back Kenney Davis, who averaged almost five yards per game in on a part-time basis last season. Davis earned the reputation as a hard runner and a good blocker in his freshman year. Egypt Allen, who moved from the defensive backfield this spring, will probably start at the other half back position. TCU lost three offensive linemen from last year's squad, and senior Elton Baptiste and junior Steve Page are the only returning starters. The Horned Frogs threw for 287 yards against the Jayhawks last year, and wide receivers James Maness and Dewayne May are back, giving Gulley an experienced group to throw to. Manesc caught four passes for 138 yards in last year's game. KU will start at least one freshman on defense, possibly more, but TCU will have an experienced defensive unit with seven returningsters to try to stop the vaunted KU offenses. Wacker said that he was wary of Frank Seurer, Kerwin Bell and company. He saw films of Seurer in last year's game when he threw for 207 yards. Wacker said Bell was considered one of the better backs in the "We also know that Coach Gottfried ascribes to a wide-open offensive philosophy." Wacker said, "Our defense had better be ready for any. thing. baggerbacker Kyle Clifton leads the Horned Frog defense. Clifton recorded 92 tackles last season, including eight for losses. Wacker also has defensive end Ron Zell Brew back at full speed. After earning All-America honors in 1981, he was injured in the last season as a result of a neck injury. Defensive tackle Darron Turner is the only sophomore defensive starter. He is a big defender. Punter James Gargus averaged 42.7 yards per post last season and returns for TCU. Sophomore Ken Ozee, who kicked three field goals last season is also back to strengthen the Horned Frogs' kicking game. Meeting set for women's basketball team Field House today, coach Marian Washington said. Attendance at the meeting is mandatory. Washington said. Anyone who has conflicts should contact her in her office. 864-4938.

Grades may bench 4 for Saturday's game By COLLIN HERMRECK Staff Reporter Staff Reporter Laurence Rose, assistant athletic director for NCAA interpretations, said Sophomore tailback Robert Mimbs and three other KU football players will be kept out of Saturday's game against Texas Christian University unless problems are resolved in their teams' athletic department officials said yesterday. Mims, along with senior defensive lineman Walter Parrish, junior defensive end Kevin Brown and sophomore cornerback Tony Berry were held out of last week's game with Northern Illinois University, and not be allowed to play the weekend coach Mike Gottfried said, unless the grade problems are worked out. that Mimbs' transcript showed he had enrolled in two classes last year but never attended. Although Mimbs received failing grades in both classes, Rose said, Mimbs was unaware he was enrolled in the classes. University policy states that if a student fails to drop a class, despite attendance, the failing grade will still be assigned on the student's transcript. Rose said that Mimbs was possibly the victim of a commuter mistake. If Mimbs receives F's in both courses, he will not have the necessary 2.0 GPA to remain eligible for the team. He should have to sit out the entire season. "It's possible that he never did drop the course, but it's possible he never did add the class or that he ever enrolled in a course. It's not really true, a computer bicep, and I think that's." what we ran into. I think he has a very meritorious case." Mimbs, who is battling for the starting tailback position, is expected to present his case to the Committee on Undergraduate Studies and Advising sometime this week. The committee handles such appeals from students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. William Balfour, University ombudsman, said that the board had handled similar petitions in the past but that appeals were rarely granted, mainly because some students would use the excuse invalidly. "Whatever goes into the computer comes out on the student's card." Balfour said. "There's nothing else that's going to get on that card. Rose said he expected the decision to be made sometime before the team's noon departure Friday for Fort Worth, Texas Mimbs, along with Parrish, Brown and Berry, is still practicing with the team, but has not been placed on the official roster. Gottfried said Brown was waiting for junior college graduation verification before National Collegiate Athletic Association and Big Eight rules would allow him to play. Parrish and Berry are awaiting grade transfers from summer classes they took, Gottfried said. Gottfried said that Lynn Williams, a highly-touted junior college transfer from Pasadena City, Calif., College had returned to California because his transcript showed he had not completed a required course. Williams is expected to return to KU after the fall semester, Gottfried said. BASEBALL AMERICAN LEAGUE W 8, L 1. Pct.
