Football fans are hopeful
Practices look better than last year, they say
David Bartkoski
Kansan sportswriter
Don Roberts and his son, Alex, sat on the hill west of the Kansas football practice fields watching the team practice Friday.
Roberts, of Lawrence, had been to other Kansas practices, but for his son this was the first time.
"I think they'll continue to improve," Roberts said of the '92 Jayhawks. "They could beat Oklahoma or Colorado this year."
Roberts is one of many football fans who are optimistic about this year's team, now into a full swing of two-a-day practices.
hours twice a day, at 9 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. on weekdays. They also practice twice on Saturday and once on Sunday. Practices are filled with a variety of drills—one of which impressed Roberts.
The team practices for about two
"I liked the agility drills yesterday. The coaches got after it," he said. "It's pretty intense conditioning."
Another observer at the practice said he saw improvement in this year's squad.
Gordon Welcher of Norman, Okla,
said this year's 'Hawks were a lot bigger
and had much more depth than in past years.
"They're big even without pads on," said the University of Oklahoma graduate, who is an avid Jayhawks fan.
He picks Kansas to pull an upset over his alma mater this year and expects them to finish ahead of the Sooners in the Big Eight standings.
bert Ballard of Lawrence, who
watches many practices, said.
"They'll probably have one of their best seasons within recent years."
Ballard said that the team seemed to have a little more hustle and that the players appeared to be working harder.
Dickson's sons, Bale, 8, and Bruce,
12, got a taste of the action on front.
They retrieved punts kicked up into the stands by punter/kicker Dane Eichloh, who was standing on the track outside the artificial turf.
His enthusiasm was shared by KU alumna Bett Dickson, who attended Kansas's first practice in pads Sunday, at Memorial Stadium.
"I've really started enjoying Kansas, football since Glen Mason came to KU. I probably didn't watch a KU game for 10 years before that time," Dickson said.
Bruce said he liked catching Eichloff's punts and watching the players on the field hit.
But Blake said he just liked catching the footballs.
Kansas selects captains Seniors Monte Cozzes, Hassan Bailey, Matt Gay and Dana Stubblefield were named as the 1992 captains of the Kansas football team Friday.
Cozzens, a fullback, rushed for a career-high 153 yards on 42 carries last season, averaging 3.6 yards a carry. Bailey, a linebacker, ranked second on the team in total tackles last season and started all 11 games.
Gay, a wide receiver, finished 1991 third on the team in receiving yardage with 232 yards and 17 receptions. Stubblefield, a defensive tackle, earned first team All-Big Eight honors at defensive tackle last season, registering 10 sacks.
