The Big Eight rules committee ruled Kansas halfback Bert Coan ineligible after findings that his 1958 Chicago All-Star trip counted as excessive entertainment. The vote was 5 to 3 though the majority rule had been changed to simple. Kansas may pursue court action while awaiting a white paper from officials.
