The rumor around here is that Tom Penders when he coached the Texas "Runnin" Horns - as they were called then - in the late '80s/ early '90s was the first NCAA coach to challenge the officials/NCAA that the jump stop was not a travel. He seems to take credit for making it widely acceptable.

I do not know if any of this is true as I did not follow Texas sports until '93. Just stating what I have heard.
