Kansas KU backfield sizes rival Irish in season preview
Strictly Personal Guessing conservatively, Kansas University should field a back field foursome this coming football season that averages out at almost 209 pounds per man. Hadi, 205, Smith, 210, McClinton, 215, Coleman, 206, form a big, speedy quartet. Notre Dame’s 1961 lineup is projected bigger with Costa at 230 and Snowden at 235, averaging 218.73 pounds. Bert Coan, around 210 pounds at 6-4, is noted as a top prospect. Jim Snowden, Ed Rutkowski, Daryle Lamonica, Costa, and McClinton are highlighted for size and power. Joe Kuharich’s College All-Stars could trim players, with KU’s Fred Hageman aiming for an offensive center berth and East-West All-America selection.
