Spring reports indicate a flood of sophomores in the Big Eight with Missouri's Gary Lane and Gale Sayers of Kansas among top quarterback and halfback contenders.

Lakers eye Hazzard as a scoring guard setup man. A New York Herald Tribune piece exposes college recruiting payoffs, detailing underhanded recruiting schemes and cash incentives offered to lure top talents.
