FAYETTEVILLE. Ark, Jan. 8.
John T. Caldwell, president Of
the University Of Arkansas. said
today that he regretted Football
Coach Bowden Wyatt's decision
to leave and take q job at Ten
nessee. and added: 1T is unfor-
tunate that any contract can be
treated as a one-way obligation" :"
Caldwell explained. however,
that he meant no criticism of
wyatt for leaving Arkansas with
three years to go on SIS. COCOA
year contract.
"It is true that the making Of
contracts with football coaches
developed as a protection for the
coach against the often times
extreme demands of fans and
supporters" Caldwell said in q
statement. Realistically, such
contracts did not come into be-
ing as a protection to the institu-
ton and have never been so ex-
pected."
Caldwell left his statement
with the university public rela-
tions director before leaving here
for Chicago earlier today. At the
time. he didn't know that Wyatt
had decided to take the Ten
nessee job.
There will no doubt be many
many criticisms Of wyatt" Cald-
well said. mo one regrets more
than the administration Of the
university Coach Wyatt's deci-
sion. We are disappointed. Our
disappointment stems from the
fine situation we felt we had with
him here.
"We can assure the supporters
Of Arkansas football that we will
seek again to employ q coach
and staff with real leadership
and professional skill.
Meantime, to Bowden Wyatt,
! can only say. You gave US two
wonderful years. We let you
