Episode Synopsis

Kansas Jayhawks Football lock in their third-best recruiting class since 2010, stacking talented prospects but falling just short of an all-time high. Did late decommitments derail Lance Leipold’s bid for a historic haul?Derek Johnson breaks down why this 16-player class—loaded with top 1,000 composite recruits and boasting KU’s strongest in-state group in years—still sparks “what if” questions. He highlights the impact of losing JJ Dunnigan to Miami and KD Jones to Oklahoma State, while spotlighting breakout candidates like running back Kory Amachree, speedster Corbin Glasco, and Lawrence High’s Josh Galbreath. Key topics include the transfer portal’s effect on class size, KU’s growing local recruiting dominance, and which new Jayhawks could fill major roles early.
