Tom Landry was fired on February 25, 1989 and the draft was conducted on April 23rd; therefore Jimmie Johnson was coach when Troy Aikman was drafted by the Dallas Cowboys
jimmy Johnson doesn*t own the cowboys
Vince Lombardi coached the Green Bay Packers and Hank Stram coached the Kansas City Chiefs in the first Super Bowl (which at the time was called the NFL/AFL World Championship Game).
No, he does not. Jimmie Johnson has two younger brothers.
Legendary Dallas Cowboys coach Tom Landry was fired in February 1989 by the Cowboys' new owner, Jerry Jones, who named University of Miami coach Jimmy Johnson to succeed him. Although the firing was a shock, there is no record that Jones announced it on TV instead of telling Landry first. JERRY JONES HAS PUBLICLY STATED THAT HE GAVE HIMSELF A SCORE OF 'F' ON THE HANDLING OF BUYING THE COWBOYS AND THE SITUATION WITH TOM LAUNDRY.
Jimmy Johnson's final season as head coach of the Dolphins was 1999. He was replaced in 2000 by Dave Wannestadt.
Although the Landry regime intended to select Aikman with the No. 1 pick in 1989, the team was bought by oil and gas businessman Jerry Jones about two months before the draft. So Aikman was the first quarterback of the Jerry Jones/Jimmy Johnson era.
Yes. They had a good relationship and even did things together in the offseason.
Your probably thinking of Steve Pelluer, who was the last Cowboys QB under coach Tom Landry before Jerry Jones and Jimmy Johnson took over in 1989. -- Dallas Cowboy Books Blog http://www.facebook.com/DallasCowboyBooksBlog
