Landry bids farewell to Cowboy players
Ousted coach asks players to do their best for Johnson
Staubach feels Cowboys
will greatly miss Landry
IRVING (AP) — Tom Landry
tearfully bid farewell to the Dallas
Cowboys Monday, saying he loved
them and asking them to give their
best for new coach Jimmy Johnson.
“It was hard to keep your emo
tions under control,” said a red-eyed
Landry afterward. “I tried to tell
them that this crisis will pass, that
you have to keep moving forward.”
The 64-year-old Landry choked
up and couldn’t finish his speech to
the players assembled in the lecture
hall.
“It was one of the most difficult
things I’ve had to do,” Landry said.
“It was hard saying goodbye to the
players.”
Landry spent 29 years as the Cow
boys head coach, the only one in the
team’s history. His teams won two
NFL championships and set a
league-record of 20 consecutive win
ning seasons. The team went 3-13
last year, worst in the NFL, but
Landry had hoped to eventually take
them to another Super Bowl, the
Cowboys’ sixth.
Landry cleaned out his desk on
Sunday, making room for Johnson,
who also said goodbye to a football
team Monday, the University of Mi
ami Hurricanes. He coached at Mi
ami Five seasons, leading them to the
national championship in 1987.
Johnson, a college roommate and
football teammate of new owner
Jerry Jones on the unbeaten 1964
Arkansas Razorbacks, will meet the
Cowboys today. He has scheduled a
1 p.m. press conference.
Former linebacker coach Dave
Wannstedt who recently joined the
Miami Dolphins’ staff, and David
Shula, the Dolphins’ assistant head
coach and passing game coordina
tor, have accepted positions with the
iCowboys.
Johnson was also expected to
bring the Hurricanes’ offensive line
coach Tony Wise, receivers coach
Hubbard Alexander, defensive
backs coach Dave Campo and de
fensive coordinator Butch Davis.
Landry’s farewell speech pre
ceded a mini-camp for the players
Monday.
“There wasn’t a dry eye in the
room,” said linebacker Eugene
Lockhart. “Coach told us he loves us
all and although he couldn’t be with
us in person from now on he would
be with us in spirit.”
Then Lockhart paused and
added, “I couldn’t stand much
more.”
Quarterback Danny White said he
had never seen Landry break down
like he did.
“I felt for him,” White said. “It’s
rare you see him in a situation that’s
difficult for him to handle. It’s some
thing I’ll never forget. It must have
lasted only five minutes but time
stood still, believe me.”
White said he would stay with the
team until he sees what develops.
“I’d still like to play another year,”
he said.
“Tom wasn’t the only one in the
room who broke down,” said line
backer Jeff Rohrer. “It was tough,
he was saying goodbye to 29 years.”
Rohrer, like other players, was
still furious over the way Landry was
replaced.
“There was a better way to dump
Tom,” he said. “You could take two
people with IQs of three, put them
in a room together and let them
brainstorm 10 minutes and they
could have found a better way.”
Jones told reporters in Little Rock
Monday that he handled Landry’s
dismissal poorly.
“It did mean everything to me for
Coach Landry to hear what I had to
say in the manner I had to say it as
quickly as possible, and that was
done,” Jones said. “We made every
effort in the world. Frankly, Coach
Landry would have known about it a
second after (club president) Tex
Schramm would have known about
it if we could have gotten to him.”
Jones and Schramm flew to Aus
tin Saturday, where Landry was
spending the weekend, to tell him of
the change. Reports of the trans
action leaked out Thursday.
Landry had one year left on his
contract but had been talking like he
wanted to coach well into the 1990s.
It hasn’t been determined how
Landry’s contract, which has one
year left on it, will be handled. He is
owed some $800,000.
Landry said on Sunday he didn’t
want to stay with the organization,
NASHVILLE, Term. (AP) —
Although not handled in an ideal
manner, the parting of the Dallas
Cowboys and Coach Tom Landry
was inevitable, according to
Roger Staubach, who quar
terbacked the Cowboys during
their glory years.
“I feel very sympathetic right
now and 1 know that down deep
he’s (Landry) hurt, but the
change was inevitable. Jerry
Jones was very specific from the
beginning that he wanted Jimmy
Johnson as his coach,” Staubach
said Monday between presenta
tions at the National Corn Grow
ers Convention.
Landry, who guided the Cow
boys through their first 29 years
of play in the National Football
League, was unceremoniously
dumped this weekend by new
owner Jones and replaced by the
University of Miami coach.
Staubach said the suddenness
of Landry’s release made him
wonder if his former coach could
have been treated better.
“Probably, I would have waited
awhile and I would have met
more with Coach Landry. 1 think
everyone would have liked to
have seen Tom Landry have an
other year to bring the team back.
The way it happened — it wasn’t
ideal,” Staubach said.
“Coach Landry felt the team
was young. I think he really
wanted to be a part of the team
coming back in a strong fashion,”
said Staubach, who led the Cow
boys to two victories in four Su-
“just hanging around looking over
everyone’s shoulder. ”
He said he didn’t ever want to
coach again or get into politics.
“I can’t stay inactive though, so 1
will have to do something,” Landry
said.
per Bowl appearances.
Staubach said he didn't put
much stock in reports that
Landry had become detached
from the players in the lasttwoor
three seasons.
“1 look at him as being the best
at what he did,” Staubach said.
“Even when we were winning he
was (so) concentrated (in his job)
so much that he could have been
looked at as detached. When
you’re losing these things are
looked at in a different perspec-
live. .ulM
“He knew how to get his point
across. He has those darting eyes
or he could just give you ‘that
look.’ 1 don’t think the game
passed him by.
“One thing about Landry, or
anyone in the limelight. You dis
sect them and you look at what
you have. For 29 years Tom
Landry was a class act. He was a
very consistent person. He is not
a phoney. He doesn’t have any
skeletons and he would change
his style for his players. He’s sur
vived the time.”
Under Johnson, Staubach said
he believes the Cowboys will be a
team on the move.
“I don’t think there will beany
problems with the new coach, al
though 1 think the players ini
tially will miss Tom Landry more
than they thought. I feel that Dal
las Cowboys f ootball is on its way
up and that Johnson is stepping
into a situation where he has a
chance to bring the team back.”
Schramm said his role would be
outlined by Jones within the nexi
month.
“1 will do what I can to help the
new owners make the transition and
continue the Cowboys tradition,"
Schramm said.
Arizona leads poll after Sooners fall
TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — When it
comes to the top ranking in college
basketball, the first time around is
best, says Arizona coach Lute Olson.
Olson’s Wildcats moved up a
notch to No. 1 this week after a 77-
75 victory Sunday over No. 9 Duke
in East Rutherford, N.J. It was Ari
zona’s second time on top this year
and fourth in the past two seasons.
“I don’t know that it will have
much effect on us,” Olson said Mon
day. “I think our players have been
there, not just this year but, with
most of them, a year ago.
“We’d like to finish the total sea
son ranked No. 1,” he said.
Arizona, 22-3, the fourth team to
be honored as No. 1 this season,
spent only one week on top the first
time before an 82-80 loss to Okla
homa on Feb. 12. The Sooners then
held the top rung for two weeks but
dropped to fourth after a 97-84 loss
Saturday at Missouri.
Georgetown and Indiana moved
up one spot each to second and third
as no teams dropped from or broke
into the Top Twenty.
Duke held the top spot from the
preseason through the first nine
polls. Illinois replaced the Blue Dev
ils for a week, followed by Oklahoma
and then Arizona the first time
around. i
Oklahoma’s loss cleared the way
for the Wildcats to regain the No. 1
ranking, and Sean Elliott made a 3-
pointer and another basket in the
last 53 seconds as Arizona seized the
opportunity against Duke.
Elliott had made only four of 19
shots before his 20-footer from the
top of the key, but Olson said he had
no doubt the 6-foot-8 senior would
come through.
TANK MFNAMAUA*
Duke’s Danny Ferry, who was
guarding Elliott when the Arizona
star hit a clutch 3-pointer, said after
tjie game he expected to see the
Wildcats regain the top spot.
Olson, whose squad made the Fi
nal Four last season after a total of
six weeks atop the poll, said he’d like
to have seen them pick Georgetown,
which received five first-place votes
and 1,219 points to Arizona’s 54
first-place votes and 1,305 points.
He said was more concerned with
a season-ending road trip Thursdai
against Washington State and Satur
day against UCLA.
T he Bruins are still smarting from
a 102-64 loss here, which ranks as
UCLA’s worst Pacific-10 Conferenct
loss ever.
The nationwide panel of sports
writers and broadcasters gave In
diana, 23-5, five first-place votes anil
1,122 points for the No. 3 spot,wit
Oklahoma, 24-4, had one No. 1 volt
and 1,083 points for fourth.
