Scorecard

3. SMU: "Like Dolly Parton, Ron Meyer's contingent is busting at the seams with talent." Included are Eric Dickerson and Craig James, "two of the top five running backs in the country."

4. Penn State: Lots of big linemen, the nation's premier tight end, Mike McCloskey, a hot quarterback prospect in Todd Blackledge and, of course, a future All-America linebacker, Jeff Hostetler.

5. Oklahoma: "So many thoroughbreds, it's rumored that they'll wear silks next season instead of those mesh jerseys." The names: Stanley (the Steamer) Wilson, Kenneth Jenkins, Darryl Goodlow, Weldon Ledbetter.

6. Stanford: In line with Palo Alto tradition, landed the nation's top quarterback, John Elway, who completed 129 of 200 passes for 1,837 yards and 19 touchdowns in just five games after 3,039 yards and 25 TDs as a junior.

7. Clemson: Andy Headen, 6'5", 215 pounds, is among the nation's best quarterbacks.

8. Georgia: "Melvin Dorsey and Carnie Norris may become the greatest running backs in Bulldog history."

9. Arizona State: "This group of brass-knuckled recruits may be the Sun Devils' best ever."

10. Mississippi: "The last time the Rebels recruited this well, Robert E. Lee sat on his veranda sipping mint juleps, contemplating where he wanted his statue erected in Washington. Running Back Buford McGee has enough press clippings to wallpaper an entire living room."
