Former Kansas defensive tackle recruit Lucas Smalls-Allen announced on Monday that he will instead attend Wake Forest. The move came just nine days prior to the start of the early signing period and leaves the Jayhawks with one interior defensive lineman, Na’kwaine Carter, in their 2026 class. That class is down to 18 recruits with the loss of Smalls-Allen. Smalls-Allen is a three-star prospect from Blessed ...

But a setback on Monday at MGM ...
A memorable season for the Kansas soccer team fell short of history, as the third-seeded Jayhawks lost 2-0 at No. 2 seed Duke on Sunday afternoon at Koskinen Stadium. In just the second season at the helm for head coach Nate Lie, KU had become the third team in school history to reach the Sweet 16, but the Jayhawks couldn’t quite knock off the Blue Devils to make it where the program never had ...
