Yesterday's press conference was at the Adams Alumni Center. Veteran 'Hawks in lineup as spring practice begins By Andrew Gilman Kansas sportswriter Kansan sportswriter On the brink of beginning spring practice, Kansas football coach Glen Mason considers himself reborn. "Athletically, not religiously," he said. "My job as a coach is to evaluate personnel this spring. And that means to get the best 11 players on the field at any one time. And that's easier said than done." Mason and the Jayhawks will begin 15 days of practice Saturday — 10 with full pads and five with just helmets and shoulder pads. "I can't wait," Mason said at his first press conference of the season. "I'm excited. We've worked hard in the off season and will look to accomplish a lot more in the spring. I feel reborn." Mason looked to the experience of his team as a big factor for the 1994 season. "On defense we've got 15 starters returning," Mason said. "We've got a lot of guys with game experience. On offense we have 18 return starters." The defense, which Mason calls solid, includes junior cornerback Gerald McBurrows. McBurrows is ready to take. McBurrows is being moved to the strong safety position. It's a move Mason also has a full arsenal returning for the Kansas offense, which senior guard John Jones is part of. Jones, a two-time All-Big Eight Conference selection, is a reason for the success of the Kansas running backs. "I trust the evaluation of the coaches," he said. "But whatever helps the team is fine with me." "It's really a two-way street with the line and the running backs," Jones said. "We know that if you're a running back and you're at Kansas, then you'll be running hard." Another offensive player whom Mason is expecting to contribute is senior fullback Chris Powell. "Chris Powell is what college football is all about," he said. "There is not a better blocking back in the Big Eight." Powell, who primarily will be used as a blocking back, also will help free Jayhawk runners this season, but he gives credit to the line, too. "We want to get polished early," he said. "That way, when we start in the fall we'll be ready. We can't wait until four or five games have gone by until we get started. We've got to do it now." NCAA denies Kansas senior redshirt year Senior free safety Kwamie Lassiter, who was injured during the second game of the 1993 season, will not be returning to the Jayhawk football team in 1994. At least not yet. Lassiter, who applied for a medical redshirt, was denied his appeal by the NCAA. Lassiter already used a redshirt year but had successfully received another year of eligibility from the Big Eight Conference. However, the NCAA makes the final decision. Coach Glen Mason, who found out about the decision early last week, said he was disappointed by the ruling. "I don't understand the reasoning," Mason said. "This was done after the NFL combine camps and after recruiting. I don't understand." Richard Kozem, assistant athletic director, said that an appeal had been filed to the NCAA counsel subcommittee on eligibility. Kozem said a decision should be made by the end of the spring semester.
