Coach 'Phog' Allen Coaching Varsity and Frosh Squads
First Year Basketball Men Will Learn K. U. Style of Play
65 FRESHMEN REPORT
Coach F. C, Allen this year is coaching both the varsity and freshman basketball squads. It has been customary in the past to have a separate coach for both fives, but when John Allen former friend of Coach Allen mentors an mentor at Leland Stanford University, Coach Allen took no steps to name a successor for him.
In coaching the freshman basketball squad himself, Coach Allen believes that he can teach and train his players throughout their college career, and that it will, in the long run, help to make the players better acquainted with the aikunas style of basketball.
Kansas has a distinctive court style of its own, and it has often been difficult for new men to conceive the kind of play. By learning it in their freshman year the new men will prove a greater asset to the team when they are ready for Big
Also Aids Varsity
By coaching the freshman Coach Allen can also help the varsity squad to become better acquainted with plays and techniques, and by teaching the kettball head knows the style of play used by other Big Six contenders, and by giving them an opportunity to use them the plays in serrumice against the varsity, the regulars will be more at home when play-
The style of court play also changes every few years. Some years the five man defense prevails over the man-to-man defense. In other years this is reversed. The team is forced to offense down the floor and other years a four men offense is used. By accommodating the yearlings to these changes and teaching them the Kutsas system at the same time, Coach Allen house teaches alongside Jay Hawker teams for the future.
Sixty-five freshmen representing twelve different states have reported at the early practice sessions held from a few days to three weeks, days Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. Some of the players come from as far west as California and one member came from a state outside the cause of the short time that the men have been出力 it is impossible to name any outstanding players. Coach Allen, however, said that the squad on the team
To Use 'Specialization'
As the season progresses Couch Allen plans to chose squads containing the best players among the freshmen to use in scrimmage against the varsity team. The squad will be specially in defensive tactics, while others will be shown strong offensive plays. By using the different styles of play against the varsity, the freshman squadrill will be its part in helping to beat the Baskin contenders on the court this winter.
Over the week-end varsity practice was light. Coach Allen was in Kansas and asked players to meet there and Mike Getto, assistant football coach, was left in charge of the squad. This afternoon's practice was a workout sessions for the coming season.
Kansas for another year opens its court play against Washburn in Topeka. The game begins on Tuesday. Last year the Jayhawks scored a one-sided victory over the Knicks.
