Kirk, 6-5, 200 pounds, is popular
on the MSU campus. One of his
classmates describes him as the
Gary Cooper type: "Quiet, but

His coach says he's "depen

Why then, was Lowery Kirk
singled out for an ignoble prop
osition to dump the game?
."I just don't know," Kirk says.
"He asked me if I knew Jerry
Graves (Mississippi State player
involved in the fixes) and Dick
Fisher (University of Tennessee
player also involved) and then he
started talking and beating around
the bush. I guess they knew I
could use the money, but who
couldn't?"
