Johnson looks back on days with Kings

Intrasquad to help team prepare for track season
The youthful KU women's track team will hold the first indoor intrasquad meet of 1978 at the Split campus.
Track coach Teri Anderson, whose team consists mostly of freshmen, said that the meet would be conducted like any other event with milestones times and places would be recorded.
"I'm going to be looking at the girls' times to see if they have improved since our last intrasquale meet, Dec. 12." Anderson said. "I want to find out who really worked out during break. Also, I'll be trying to choose sprinter and distance runners for our relay team."
Anderson said she hoped the intrasquad meet would boost the team's confidence and team spirit.
The women's indoor season begins Jan. 29 against the University of Oklahoma.
"ITS IMPORTANT that the girls are both physically and mentally prepared before surgery."
Anderson said that today's intrasquam meet was the first step in a building process that the team had to follow to be competitive by the Oklahoma meet.
She said the team's strength would be in the running events.
"In every meet you build onto your foundation." Anderson said. "You begin with the indoors, move into the outdoors, prepare for a conference meet and finally the national meet."
"The team has some really fast spring- up said," and "good hurdles and distances."
ANDERSON SAID she expected Charmane Kuhman, Dighton senior, and Sheila Calmese, St. Louis, Mo., sophomore, to perform well in the sprints.
Lori Lortow, Lirem freshman, will compete in the hurdles, and Shawn Corwin, Kansas City, Mo. freshman, will high jump in an intraqued meet last month.
Michelle Brown, Oklahoma City sophomore, and Karen Fitz, Independence, Kan., junior, are expected to compete in distance events.
Anderson said that many of the girls could score consistently throughout the season, and that she expected several more national qualifiers.
She said the team would need more experience before it reached its potential.
"AS EACH MEET passes, the girls will be getting more experience and will be exposed to different levels of competition," she said. "We can be very good this year, but, because of our youth, I expect us to be even better next year. If I had to pick a girl, it probably would be in the weight events. The team could also use some depth."
Anderson said Iowa State and Kansas
major competition for the Big East Jaguars.
"Iowa State and K-State are always strong," she said. "They have good teams, but I think we might be able to surprise them if we perform to our potential."

"I thought I did a good job," Johnson said. "I'm very sensitive to that. There are things you weigh: Are the guys playing hard compared to other teams in the NBA? Are they disciplined? Are they coming to town? Are they part of the team there? Are they passing the ball? Are there any problems, any personal problems on the team?"
"We had no problems. We'd play a game and afterwards, the other coach would say, 'Kansas City is a well-coached team. They'll get it together and then start winning.' To hear of my peers who say my team way is better, I'll ask them how I know whether I'm doing the job or not."
Six of those seven straight losses leading up to Johnson's departure came on a West Coast trip.
"It was a case of a team playing to its capacity and not being able to win on that road trip," said Johnson. "I haven't seen them play." The team hadn't played but we hit teams that were unbelievable.
"I thought we had to make some personnel moves. When things don't jell, you have to make moves. But they are convinced that this team is good the way it is. When you say, 'What about this?' or 'What about the possibility of trading this guy?' and the answer comes back, 'We can.' We've already seen the room searched out, without even leaving the room to go work on it. Then you know you're in trouble as a coach.
"They told me I had my job on a day-to-day basis. I wonder how many people have gone into a game knowing it could be their chance. It are pretty high. It was a tough situation."
