The Hogs will be long gone 1 after the school year, one more full season playing 1990-199- "sooooooiiiiieeee" pigging their way on the football field and basketball courts of Texas SWC members. Arkansas' departure, announced Wednesday, did create speculation Texas and Texas A&M might follow, the Cotton Bowl might go independent, and the SWC could make an alliance with the Big Eight Conference. SWC Commissioner Fred Jaco-b- y said he was told verbally that Arkansas will sever its ties on June 30th, 1991, meaning the Hogs will play this next season as usual in football and basketball. "They will participate in a full schedule next year," Jacoby said. "They will be full members." Jacoby said the SWC is not going to "panic" over Arkansas leaving. "We plan a meeting of conference presidents in 10 days to two weeks," Jacoby said. "We will have some interesting things to report. We could turn this Arkansas negative into a big positive." Jacoby said he is involved in a discussion with another conference "that is too sensitive" to comment about. The SWC would dearly love to have Oklahoma, a charter member of the league, back in the fold. "Obviously, Oklahoma is a very attractive school as far as we're concerned," Jacoby said. "We could strengthen ourselves by what has happened." Oklahoma officials say they have not been contacted "formally or informally" by the SWC. Dr. James Vick, SWC president, said there could be a meeting early this month between officials from both leagues, including Jacoby and Carl James, Big Eight commissioner. "I honestly don't know what the conference will look like in three years because there is such a wide range of options to explore," Vick said. Texas and Texas A&M, should they decide to leave, could have trouble with the Texas Legisla- ture. Several lawmakers have said they would fight any abandonment of the SWC by the and Aggies. "I'm not a politician, but I Lon-ghor- believe there would be a lot of people in the state very concerned," Vick said. "But this is not a panic situation. There are a lot of options.' Texas A&M president William Mobley said, "We want to stay a part of the league as long as it is a viable conference. We're traditionalists and we're members of the Southwest Conference." Texas Athletic Director DeLoss Dodds said whatever happens, the Aggies and Longhorns, arch-riva- ls on the field, "will be together" whether they remain in the SWC or move on. The Cotton Bowl executive committee held a meeting to discuss options. The Cotton Bowl traditionally has reserved an automatic bid for the SWC champion. Blazers return Ainge to athletic roots PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - After a college career at Brigham Young and nine years in the NBA with Boston and Sacramento, Danny Ainge is coming home. The Portland Trail Blazers ac- veteran quired the guard on Wednesday from the guard Byron Kings for second-yeIrvin and two draft picks. "It's kind of a homecoming for ar him," Portland vice president Bucky Buckwalter said in announcing the deal. Ainge, who was un. The available for comment, was born in Oregon and is one of the most renowned athletes in Oregon high school history. k Ainge led North Eugene to state prep basketball championships in 1976 and 1977. He was e selection in a football, baseball and basketball. Buckwalter said Portland was pleased to be "bringing him home where he belongs." Ainge is expected to provide Portland with solid scoring and leadership off the bench. The Trail Blazers hope that will put them over the top in their quest to win an NBA championship. Portland won a franchise record back-to-bac- two-tim- all-sta- te regular season games last season and won the Western ConferNBA ence title. In the Finals, however, the Blazers relied heavily on their starting five and were beaten in five games by the Detroit Pistons. Buckwalter said the other Trail Blazers see Ainge as a fierce competitor who can offer the punch that was missing off the bench in the playoffs. "They see him as a guy who wants to win, who knows how to win and has won," Buckwalter said.
