Kansas Spring Camp Emphasizes Defense Behind Strong Backfield
Kansas coach Jack Mitchell pushes defense as the Jayhawks finish week three of spring drills. He notes limited returning starters and last year’s weak defensive showing, promising experiments to shore up the line and linebacker corps while evaluating personnel for a 6 3 scheme and a 5 4 with changed center duties. The scrimmage featured two green shirt TDs by Dave Crandall and strong running by Gale Sayers, but passing and catching drew criticism from Mitchell.
