Defensive questions
From page one
THE LINEBACKING situation has improved since last spring, Moore said.
"I feel a lot better about the linebackers now I was told," he said. "It will be tough to replace Terry Beenon, but some people performed well there in the spring."
. . .
Tom Andalickweik, a 6-3, 230-pound junior from Kansas City, Kan., had playing experience last fall. He started the two games of the 76-season and made 31 tackles.
The Jawhays also got a surprise from Don Pile. Injured in 1974 while a sophomore, Pile sat out the past two seasons. The 6-3, 252-pound senior from Garden City returned last spring and along with Andalkiewicz is listed as the No. 1 linebacker.
ALSO RETURNING after a year's layoff is Harry Murphy. Murphy, a Shawnee Mission junior, was injured in the second round of the wining rallies. As a sophomore in 1975, Murphy started as a
defensive end, a position from which he could see action this year, Jones said.
Sophonores Fred Osberg and Morty Carbonell, along with three-year letterman Jim Young, will give some depth to the linebacking crew.
Another transfer from the offensive unit, John Algee, is listed as No. 1 noseguard. Playing Algee allowed Jones to move Denise Anderson from noseguards to defensive tackles.
"ALGEE IS quicker and is more suited for the type of position we want him to play," Jones said. "Occasionally, we'll have our noseguard drop back to cover passes, giving us a 4-3 look, something we haven't done in the past."
Jones also said Charles Casey, a 6-1, 235-pound sophomore from Saginaw, Mich., had a good skin and looked great at times as noseurward, especially late in the spring.
Jones, the defensive l looks strong,
Moore said.
Despite the loss of Mike Butler and Steve
The Jayhawks have a potential all-Big Eight performer in tackle Franklin King. The 6-4, 28-5um junior from Pocatello, Idaho, has started every game during his
King, who along with Butler gave KU two top defensive linemen, is not sure how the graduation of Butler will affect the line's play.
"LAST YEAR, teams chose to run at me instead of Butler." King said. "It's a mystery to me how they'll attack us this year."
Another all-Big Eight candidate is end Tom Dinkel. The 63, 245-pound senior is a three-year letterman for the 'Hawks. Dinkel, who needs 50 tackles to become one KU's top ten tacklers of all time, was in the second and forth from linebacker to end last season.
"I'm happy I'll be playing one position
this year," Dinkel said. "Last year, I felt I was moved around too much and wasn't as effective as I should have been at either position."
MIKE BEAL, a 6-4, 320-pound junior from Kansas. He will replace to replace Mike Beal at left center.
Jerry Calovich, a part-time starter last year, is slated to move into a defensive and position opponent Dinkel. The E-200, 220-inch fighter, also is the E-2, is a two-year letterman for the 'Hawks.
Balagna and Emerson should give the Jayhawks depth in the line. Balagna, the Big Eight freshman-of-the-year in 1975, started the past two years at nosquefur.
Emerson, the biggest man on the team at 6-24, 70 points, shared playing time last week.
It's goodby Van Zandt, Reese hello Larry Jones on FB staff
While attention this year has centered on the changes in the basketball coaching staff, the football staff has quietly undergone a shuffling of its own personnel.
Most notable among the coaching changes was the departure of defensive coordinator and defensive line coach Lance Van Zandt, who took a similar position at Nebraska. He served with Larry Jones, who served as defensive coordinator at Tennessee for the last three years.
Previously, Jones had been head coach at
15-10 State when his teams compiled a
15-10 record.
*Jones' coaching career spans 20 years and he's served on *Staffs* whose teams played in
the Orange, Peach, Flesta, Liberty and Sugar bowls. Besides Tennessee and Florida State, he has coached at Air Force, West Point, South Carolina and Louisiana State University from which he graduated in 1954.
The other departure from the 'Hawks coaching staff is Carl Reese, who left his position as head of KU's linebacking corps and returned to Mckinley field coach at his alma mater, Missouri.
To replace Reese, Jim Webster was switched from defensive end coach to linebacker and Hank Hawk assumed his role for defensive ends in addition to his recruiting duties.
Screeching halt
An unidentified Nebraska back is stopped at the scrimmage line by a stubborn Kansas defensive line in last year's Big Eight contest. Returning for KU's defensive line are Dennis Balagna, James Emerson, Franklin King and Mike Beal at tackle; Kirby Criswell, Jerry Calovich and Jim Young at end.
