DALLAS — Tom Landry is as
used to being around microphones
and television cameras as most news
casters, but when he took center
stage Tuesday he was obviously ill at
ease.
It was decision time and the deci
sion had not been an easy one.
“I would just as soon be on some
lake fishing with (retired Minnesota
coach) Bud Grant,” said Landry.
“This isn’t any fun. This is not pleas
ant.”
Landry went before the cameras
Tuesday to announce he had de
cided Gary Hogeboom would start
the Dallas Cowboys’ season opeping
game instead of veteran Danny
White.
Normally Landry’s mid-week
meeting with the media is held in a
motel next door to the Cowboys’ cor
porate headquarters. Tuesday, how
ever, the National Football League’s
Alumni Association threw a lun
cheon for present and past members
of the team, so the news conference
was moved to a large, downtown ho
tel.
The room was packed, the lights
were bright and new team owner
H.R. “Bum” Bright even stood in a
back corner to listen to what the
coach had to say. Landry promptly
got off to a bad start.
Before getting to the quarterback
decision, Landry mentioned that of
fensive tackle Phil Pozderac would
replace the injured Howard Rich
ards in the starting lineup for the
season opener against the Los An
geles Rams. Then he said:
% “Now on the quarterback, which I
know you are all interested in, I have
decided to go with Pozderac as the
starter, I mean Hogeboom.”
But Landry did not pronounce
Hogeboom’s name right. Ever since
Hogeboom became a member of the
Cowboys, Landry has tended to add
an “n” to the middle syllable of ii
quarterbac k's name so that it on
out “Hogenboom.”
1 logeboom has long sincebeco®
familial with Landry’sinabilitytoj
his name right.
"Mv second year here,”saidH
geboom, “coach Landry told us tin
he was mispronouncing anybodij g|
name that they should comeandii m
him. Well after he pronouncedi
that way about lOOtimesI
cided I would mention it.
“He told me, ‘When yougettolt
a starter, I ll pronounce it rigk
That’s all right. I’ve been callti
worse.”

LUBBOCK, Texas — Texas Tech
football coach Jerry Moore Tuesday
said the hiring of five new coaches
promised an optimistic season for
the Red Raiders — a team whose last
winning season was 1978.
“We’re just kind of on the verge of
feeling like we’re going to get good,”
Moore said of his team. “I’ve got as
good a coaching staff as there is
around. The biggest difference for
us (the coaching staff) is the maturity
level.”
Only two of Moore’s nine assistant
coaches are working the same posts
they had one year ago.
The five new coaches include of
fensive coordinator and quarterback
coach Tom Wilson; defensive coor
dinator and linebacker coach Spike
Dykes, offensive line coach Clovis
Hale, defensive ends coach Dick
Winder and secondary coach Carlos
Mainord.
The Raiders were tied for first
place in the Southwest Conference
for the first half of last season, but
ended 3-7-1 for the year with a nar
row miss at tying for third place in
the league.
Another plus for Moore is that
Tech opens at home this year for the
first time in his three years with the
Raiders. They meet UT-Arlington
on Sept. 15.
“I probably think the strength of
our football team might be our de
fense,” Moore said, adding his fall
squad includes 27 seniors and 15
fourth-year juniors.
“Offensively we’re going to stay
about the same. We’re probably
break the I (formation) more than
we have in the past,” Moore said.
Moore said he hoped the Red
Raiders’ could improve their throw
ing game, but added the alternate
quarterback situation remained un
certain. He said starting quarterback
senior Perry Morren of Childress
was a good leader.
“He is not an outstanding runner
and he is not an outstanding passer.
His strong point is his knowledge,”
Moore said.
Individual players on this season’s
Red Raiders’ offensive line average
only about 235 pounds, but Moore
said he was not worried about their
size because he was after speed.
