New Coach Signals New Era In Texas Football
The selection of Fred Akers from Wyoming as Texas football coach may end the Wishbone T era. Akers, 38, agreed to a five year, $45 000 per year contract to return to Texas amid Royal's departure after 20 years. Akers runs a varied offense though Wyoming used the Wishbone about 80 percent of the time. Royal and Dr. Rogers offered cautious optimism about rebuilding Texas and noted the tradition may be challenging to restore.
