The former KU AD (the man who fired Owens and hired Brown) is looking well, much better than last time I saw him (he was in ER same time as my father in law last summer).

Had to look him up to refresh my memory on some things and came across this 1983 article.

The author clearly felt for OK native son Ted, which is understandable to an extent. Interesting the attitude toward Johnson and his bud with the Regents.

Curious, given his prediction - any one know how long Jim Lassiter lasted with the Oklahoman? He certainly had little clue about coaching tenure at KU.
