Ken Coleman Back At Fullback Slot
In pre-season reckoning at least, fullback is the strongest position on Kansas' 1962 football club.
Returning are Ken Coleman, good enough as a sophomore last year to lead the Jayhawkers in rushing, and Armand Baughman, who earned a letter at No. 3. Graduation claimed Jim Jarrett, a sturdy two-way performer for three years but his loss will be more than cancelled by anticipated improvement of the hold-over veterans, plus two sophomores of promise.
COLEMAN CLIMAXED a great season by ripping 107 yards in the 33-7 upset of Rice to earn designation as the Bluebonnet bowl's most outstanding back. His 11-game aggregate of 656 is the second-highest
sophomore total in Kansas annals and the third highest seasonal output regardless of class.
If he can lift his blocking and linebacking abilities to a level close to his stout ball-carrying he will be exceptional.
Good as he is the tall Wichitan will be obliged to improve if he is to hold off Baughman, thick, tough Hutchinson junior. It won't show in his skimpy 1961 statistical log of 13-for-43 . . . neither he nor Coleman was caught for a loss . . . but Baughman has improved close to his rival in running ability.
FACT IS, HE performs every fullback chore pretty well and needs only game experience to
