A Kansas team that contains more newcomers than returning players and features six freshmen, several in prominent roles, will get introduced to high-level college volleyball in a hurry. The Jayhawks are set to open their season on Friday at 5:30 p.m. Central time with a road match against Pittsburgh as part of the Opening Spike Classic. The Panthers are fourth in the nation to open the season and have already ...
One could be forgiven for pigeonholing the 6-foot-1, 230-pound Yasin Willis as a certain type of runner based on his track record from two years at Syracuse.

It’s been a long road back to full strength for Kansas running back Jalen Dupree after he missed spring practice due to injury. But in a recent scrimmage in the final days of fall camp, Dupree said, “I hurdled somebody and I kind of had a glimpse of my old self for a little bit.” That was the clearest sign yet that Dupree, who carried the ball 102 times for 508 yards and two touchdowns in 2025, could be ...
