Gopher Basketball - the Assistant Coaches fv'\ i W 1 n'E', • University of Minnesota ({J) VoL XXI, No.3, May, 1984 It once was said that there were two major sports in Texas ... football and spring football. While that isn't the case here in the North Coun­ try, Lou Holtz has done what he could to bring spring football into that major sports category. 1n his first year at the hlem of the Golden Gophers, Holtz embarked on 20 days of spring practice with the same kind of enthusiasm that he treats everything else, and it was contagious. Hotlz was de~ermined to hold a Spring Game that would get his youthful Minnesota football off on the right foot in its preparations for the 1984 season. Holtz wanted a big crowd, a pro­ duction, a night of college football with people involved. Several local firms jumped on the bandwagon. Twin Cities Federal was the leader, and im­ mediately purchased 10,000 tickets which it plan­ ned to distribute through its area outlets. G. Heilman Brewing Company, brewers of Schmidt Beer in St. Paul, also pitched in as did Republic Airlines. It obviously became a team el­ fort, and as Holtz had hoped, "everybody who shoveled snow" got involved. But the cr.thusiasm generated by Holtz for football was' apparent in other ways. Ken Buell, U of M athletic ticket manager, opened an "Ear­ ly Bird Season Ticket Sale" for the first time in U ofM Athletic Director Paul Giel accepts a check for $9,576, representing the sale of /33 new history in Gold Country, and about 5,000 season tickets were sold.

  • The First Pro Bowl Game
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 12, No. 4 (1990) The First Pro Bowl Game by Fred R. Crawford The game was conceived by George P. Marshall, the Washington Redskins owner, and sponsored by the Los Angeles Times Charities. Pitting the league champion New York Giants against a collection of the NFL’s finest and five members from two independent Pacific coast teams was a novel idea. Played on January 15, 1939, in old Wrigley Field, a baseball park, before a crowd of an estimated 20,000 fans (30,000 had been expected but with poor weather conditions attendance was low). The game was typical of football in the 1930’s, punting on third down, scoring teams receiving the following kickoff, and a few breaks deciding the outcome of the game. The teams struggled between the 30-yard lines for most of the first quarter. Early in the second quarter Giant fullback John (Bull) Karcis intercepted a Cecil Isbell pass on the All-Star 35-yard line and returned it to the All-Star 13. Two running plays and an incomplete pass forced the Giants into settling for a 19-yard field goal by Len Barnum. Giants 3 All-Stars 0. Late in the second quarter the All-Stars started a drive from their own 35 yard line with Ed Goddard running and passing along with John Drake's running, the All-Stars worked the ball to the Giants 19 yard line. Three plays failed to gain yardage and Ernie Smith kicked a 25-yard field goal with 29 seconds left in the half.

  • Coach Steve Owen: the Great Innovator
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 18, No. 4 (1996) COACH STEVE OWEN: THE GREAT INNOVATOR By Stan Grosshandler, et.al. (Originally published in part in Football Digest) Professional football has advanced from a simple to complex game. To a great extent, this is due to the imaginative genius of the coaches. In the early years the innovators were George Halas, Curly Lambeau, Greasy Neale and Jimmy Conzelman. Later Paul Brown and Vince Lombardi came along. Today [ed.: 1970s] we have Tom Landry, Don Shula, Hank Stram and George Allen to mention a few. Seldom mentioned; yet one of the great innovators of all time is Steve Owen, for 23 years the guiding genius of the New York Giants. Stout Steve came up with innovations like the A-formation and the Umbrella Defense. These were not only catchy names, but effective weapons. The Giants under Owen won eight division and two league championships. What is even more remarkable about Owen is that he stressed defense when few of his contemporaries did. His kind of football began with blocking and tackling. "Football is a game played down in the dirt and it always will be. There's no use getting fancy about it." Often criticized by Giants fans as ultra-conservative, he may have been the first NFL coach to elect to kick off to start a game. He often chose to go for a sure field goal rather than gamble for a touchdown, and that further upset New York rooters. Eventually, however, the rest of the league came around to his way of thinking.

  • Gophers to Host Big Ten Golf Meet
    Gophers To Host Big Ten Golf Meet Coach Greg Harvey's University of Minnesota golf team will serve as host for the 1981 Big Ten golf championships at the U of M Golf Course on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, May 15-17. Teams will enter six golfers and then count their five best scores for a team total. Par is 71 on Minnesota's 6,123 yard course. One round is set for Friday, two on Saturday and the concluding 18 holes on Sunday. Harvey hopes his Gophers will find their home course to their liking, and he'll be counting heavily on his two upperclassmen, Tom Lehman and Bill Folkes, to lead the way. A senior from Alexandria, Lehman ranks as Minnesota's top All-America candidate this season. He concluded the 1980 cam­ paign with a top-20 finish in the NCAA meet, and over the summer he won the U.S. Amateur Championship. He has twice been an All­ Big Ten choice and has captured top honors in eight major tourneys. Folkes also ranks as a solid performer who will be shooting for top honors in the Big Ten meet. A senior from Coon Rapids, he played well last summer and had a good fall tour in 1980. Other Minnesota golfers figuring in Harvey's plans are Steve Oftelie from Waconia, Kirk Snider from Hastings and Jay Swan­ son from Minneapolis. All are juniors and were impressive last fall. Harvey entered the 1981 season with optimism. "Overall this should be our best season in quite some time," he said.
