The Kansas football team and its offensive line coach Daryl Agpalsa received an early Christmas gift on Tuesday night with the signing of UCLA transfer lineman Tavake Tuikolovatu, according to multiple reports. Tuikolovatu will have three years left to play. As a redshirt freshman in 2024, he played 37 snaps on offense, including 15 at right guard, with one start, as well as 66 on special teams; in his first ...
Kansas sneaked in one of the highlight plays of its nonconference slate under the wire. In the final two minutes of KU’s last game prior to the start of league play, with the Jayhawks already up 33 points on Brown, AJ Storr pestered N’famara Dabo in the post to such an extent that Dabo wasn’t able to put up a shot off Jeremiah Jenkins’ behind-the-back entry pass.
