Kansas Buckles Down With New Linebacker Depth
Kansas football focuses on replacing Marcus Jenkins-Moore after knee surgery with Jake Love leading a revamped outside linebacker corps. Love, 6- foot tall and 221 pounds, has added weight and a rugged edge, citing Ben Heeney as a source of inspiration. Heeney’s influence helped Love rack up eight tackles for a loss last season and push for more physical play in spring drills. Courtney Arnick and Samson Faifili join the battle for depth as competition intensifies.
