Kansas receiver Dezmon Briscoe throws a pass during pregame warmups at Memorial Stadium, Friday, Oct. 24, 2009.

Kansas University junior receiver Dezmon Briscoe is expected to announce Friday his decision to forgo his senior season and enter the 2010 NFL Draft.

Thursday night, following a team meeting in which players were informed that coach Mark Mangino had resigned, Briscoe acknowledged that he’d make a decision Friday, and indicated there was a press conference in the works.

Briscoe, who was named a first-team all-Big 12 selection earlier this week, finished his junior season with 84 receptions for 1,337 yards and nine touchdowns. He was fifth nationally in receiving yards per game (121.55) and eighth in catches per game (7.64).

According to a university release, Briscoe will discuss his future with the media Friday afternoon after men’s basketball coach Bill Self meets with the media.
