With only 22 lettermen returning for the 1969 football season, the prospects for the Austin Peay State University football team would seem to be on the slim side .

Of the 22 returnees, two were named to the All-Ohio Valley Conference first team last year while four others garnered honorable mention honors.

Split end Harold (Red ) Roberts and defensive safety Howell Flatt were selected by the league 's coaches as members of the 1968 all-star team.

State University's Blue with a hopeful outlook .

Twenty-six lettermen return from the 1968 team which was forced to play several freshmen, but, as coach puts it, "We are too slo w, too s mall and too few."

Still, MTSU hopes to improve on last year's record (2 -8 ) and, if the spring game was any indication , it could be done .

While this will be a year of rebuilding and orientation , Fuoss hopes his team can develop into a contender before the season is over .
