Deer, elk harvest drop harvest figures for the hunting season, released by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources game management section, showed a slight drop in the deer and elk harvest. This was partially due to poor weather conditions. More than 37,000 elk permits were sold in 1979 for the states open bull elk season and 2,313 bulls were harvested for a 7 percei- - hunter success ratio. During the 19-- season, 5,000 more hunters were field and 713 fewer bull elk were harvest than in 1978.

That is obviously among our priorities, said Snyder. Hippie and Bradshaw were very good for our program. Now, we need someone to take over. Candidates in camp include senior squadman Kimber Hall, sophomores Mike Canales and Paul Chico Petros and transfer Bob Galiano from United States Dennis DeLoach played very well at inside linebacker last year. Mike Fosmark will be a strong candidate to Jones and nose guard Kelly Kirwan who are both lost to graduation from the defensive line. The Schedule: Its going to be demanding for a young ballclub. Among the first six games alone we will play our two major rivals (BYU and Utah) plus two solid football teams (Texas and Kentucky). I see the The PCAA in 1980: conference as being more balanced than a year ago with more teams having the ability to win the title. San Jose State has to be a leading contender; with the improvement weve seen the past couple of years at Long Beach State I should think they will be right there; the return of Jim Sweeney should be a positive thing for Fresno State; I would consiser us to be in the hunt. Ive witnessed that if a man is a good coach there is improvement in his program during the second and third years and I think that will be the case at Pacific where Bob Toledo will be in his second season. So, overall, I think the league will be more balanced than last year when San Jose State and Utah State were in a horse race. Aggie Top Players: Were going into this season with very few stars. We had them last year, players who had been with us and had proven themselves to be highly talented (Eric Hippie, Rick Parros, Rulon Jones, Donnie Henderson, Craig Bradshaw, etc.) but they have graduated. This d team. just wont be a James Murphy and Ken Thompson were both among the nations leading receivers and it will be good to have them again Larry Hogue, although he may not be too effective this spring with a healing knee, should be a solid performer for us at cornerback. two-tea- offensive become an lineman (center). Ken Brownn is the returning starter at tight end and we return both of our kickers (punter Guy McClure and placement specialist Steve Steinke). Those players, among others, should get the job done for us. Objectives during spring drills: First, and foremost, weve got to find a quarterback. Obviously, the loss f Hippie and Bradshaw (the sixth and eighth most efficient passrs in the country) will be very tough to overcome. There are a number of spots on the team that must be filled, but Im not as concerned with them as I am with the quarter-backin- g job. Also this spring we must determine our direction, in a sense. With the veteran club we had a year ago, we had a great deal of ability to do several things with out style of play and the schemes we used. We wont have quite that luxury this year, so we must determine what to eliminate and what to concentrate on this spring. Also, we must work on developing the leadership we were blessed with from the seniors of last year and weve got to work on filling some holes on defense, particularly along the front Rulon Jones and where Kelly Kirwan are both gone An over view of ISCs 1980 We realize we have a prospects: ways to go to be competitive That includes both units. Yet, we fell we have some fine athletic talent on hand. Briefly, we have to find a quarterback, two inside linebackers, and a strong safety. Even with the loss of our alltime career rushing leader (Rick Parros) we have a stable of m star-oriente- CORRECTION: The rate for the week of the week of April 24- - April 17-- 11 .892 3.549 and were incorrect. 1 The rate should have read 11.75 during April. We apologize for effective any International University which dropped football following the 1979 season. We wont be expected to be as experienced or as explosive as we were last year, said Snyder, but we have some talented young football players who have developed through the program, starting as freshman, and we feel they will be able to fill in for the losses of 12 starters. Snyder lists the strength of this where team as the wide receivers Murphy and Thompson were third and 13th nationally in receptions - and the group of outside outstanding linebackers: Dave Bluford, Brett Ure, Ken Ciancone and Dave England, who missed most of the 1979 season. With the athletes weve lost to graduation, there are spots to be filled but Im not as concerned about them as I am about the quarterback job, said Snyder. Another objective is to determine our direction, so to speak. This wont be a veteran club and we wont have the luxury of being able to do several things. In addition to his search for a signal caller, Snyder is anxious to see how veteran Jerry Copeny and a stable of young runners fill in for the departed Parros.
