Rodney Peete, to guide the team's fortunes New coach Larry Smith developed a reputation as a run ning coach at Arizona before moving cross-conference to Southern Cal. But Smith is changing his style somewhat this year to capitalize on the multiple talents of his signal caller He still hopes to grind out 200 yards a game on the ground, but Peete’s athleticism won t go untapped. Running back, Ryan knight will be expected to pull a bigger share of the load this year, but at last word he wasn’t even at the top of Smith’s depth chart knight was the team's loading ground gainer in 1086. but his 3,6-yards-per-carry average and 536 total yards were hardly up to Trojan standards.

Muster is a double threat in an era of specialists. So while he may carry Stanford to eight wins single-handedly, don't ex pect his name to raise; much more than a ripple come Heisman Trophy voting time despite the attention being paid him now. Muster won't be the only weapon in HI way's arsenal, just the first All three leading scorers from last year's squad, which managed an 8-4 record and received a Gator Bowl bid. return for the fall campaign. Receiver |eff lames snared 52 catches for eight Tl)s last year, and kicker David Sweeney is also back But he must improve on last year's woeful 4-15 field goal conversion rate to be an asset instead of a liability. The defense was the biggest surprise in Stanford' surprising 1988. and this year’s model will find it difficult to repeat last year's heroics. Although it ranked just fifth in the Pac-10, the Cardinal defense led the conference in turnover ratio (plus 15) and allowed the fewest (Miints of any team dur ing the conference schedule To maintain that bend-hut don't-break level of perfor inanre. the Cardinal will have to get big years out of strong safety Brad Humphreys and the veteran linebacking tandem of Kurt Colehower and Barry Mckeever Linebacker Dave Wyman was the heart of the defense last year, and he will lie sorely missed 6. Arizona Wildcats I’rojeded Uncord: 5-6 (3-5) Now head coach Dick Tomoy won games at a 57 percent clip with the University of Hawaii before moving back onto the continent to take over at Arizona. Hut he will find the go OSU’s Eric Wilhelm ing a little tougher in the Pac-10 than in the Western Athletic Conference, and replacing both the leading passer and rusher from a year ago won’t make his task any easier. The Wildcats lost equally from the offense and defense at graduation, and Toiney must now fill five vacancies on both sides of the ball. The most gap ing holes are at quarterback, tailback, and linebacker, and that spells trouble with a capital B. Art Greathouse, who picked up 404 yards and four TDs in limited duty last year, hopes to fill the void left by David Adams, who averaged nearly five yards a carry on his way to 1,175 yards and seven TDs in 1986. Greathouse, all 5 feet 10 in ches and 195 pounds of him, should have success as long as he stays behind huge tackle Jeff “Rhino” Rinehart. At 6 feet 2 inches and 327 pounds, Rinehart provides an imposing shield. The quarterback position was still wide open entering fall drills. Alfred )enkins was a three-year starter for Arizona, and threw for 1,573 yards and 10 TDs last season.
