S. Iverson finds it, in year 2

I have been doing this long enough to have written off men like S. Iverson, who was a track man who was talked into it by a coach who never let go. 256 yards is the league's way of saying nothing is settled. Two of them found the end zone, in game 2 of his season. The ones who arrive like this tend to know what it cost. That is usually worth something in December.

This story ran on the wire in week 2 of 1984. The rest of the season is in the paper.
