Tigers Make Changes
GRAMBLING, La. --
Cirambling Slate University
is nearly finished with its
1984 football schedule, and
the slate could include
several surprises. The
Tigers, who usually play
Morgan Slate in New
York’s Yankee Stadium
each year, will play
predominantly white
Boston University this year.
Promoters of the game,
called the Whitney Young
Classic, reportedly were
anxious for Grambling to
play a more competitive
team.
Grambling has trounced
Morgan the last few
seasons.
Promoters also hope
Boston University will help
spur attendance. Last year’s
Grambling-Morgan game
drew a crowd of 41,000.
Promoters would like an
audience of at least 50,000.
McKinley Fired
PRAIRIE VIEW,
Texas - Prairie View
A&M, still anxious to
regain the glory it enjoyed
prior to integration, has
fired Football Coach Jim
McKinley after two
seasons.

Prairie View from North
Carolina A&T, compiled a
1-21 record at Prairie View.
McKinley reportedly had
another year left on a con
tract that paid him about
$30,000 a season.

round of the Mid-American

“We matched up well
with them inside and, in a
finesse game, you can get
offense from Mason,” said
Gaines.
The Rams will not play
again until they take on
Morehouse Jan. 11. They
will begin divisional play
the following night against
Shaw. After a non-division
contest against Bowie State
on Jan. 14, they will play
five division games before
the month ends.
Their only “break” dur
ing that stretch will be Jan.

Salem Coliseum against
Division I arch-rival North
Carolina A&T.
“We haven’t played that
badly or that well,” con
cluded Gaines. “We’ve on
ly been out of one game,
and that was against
Virginia Union when we
were just overmatched. We
didn’t play at all in the first
half against Norfolk, but
we came back in the second
half. But that’s all over with
now. We have a lot of work
to do, and, with the kids
gone so long, we will just
about have to start over
when they come back.”
