So, in all that time, landry didnt call in hickey to work with roger why?
then to know years hickey spent with cowboys look at this:
Scouting and later life
On February 1, 1964, he joined the Cowboys as an assistant coach, serving for two years. He had been a strong candidate to become head coach of the expansion Atlanta Falcons, but the post was given to Green Bay assistant Norb Hecker on January 26, 1966. Just six weeks later, Hickey resigned his coaching position and asked to join the Cowboy scouting staff.
Hickey spent the next two decades as a Cowboys scout and watched with pride when his team dusted off his old offense in 1975, using it only in specific situations, but popularizing a strategy that remains to this day.

so why did it take so long for landy to let hickey run the shotgun?
think about that for alittle bit and ponder
