Adams Denies Influence in Coan Trip Controversy
Bud Adams, Houston Oilers owner, claims he did nothing wrong by taking Bert Coan to the 1959 College All-Star game in Chicago. The Big Eight ruled Cran ineligible, forfeiting Kansas’ championship, calling the trip excessive entertainment. Adams, a Kansas alumnus, says he did not entice Cran to Kansas and stresses the AFL morning context and transfers. He also mentions Doan’s Texas Christian status and Sidney Latham’s trip.
