Led KU to one of our greatest football wins in history over Oklahoma (while throwing a mind bottling interception in that one, too). I sometimes wonder if he blacks out during high stress moments (some of his INT’s you have to see to believe).
He was going to quit football after his second junior year and the disastrous end for him in the Arkansas bowl game. He reportedly stayed on after being talked into it by our coaching staff and our starting QB, Jalon Daniels.
He then stepped in for an injured Daniels early last year and led KU to our best season in fifteen years. As baffling as his low moments can be, he can make Peyton Manning esque throws and then cut up NFL defenders with reported 4.2 speed at KU. He really led one of my favorite redemption sports stories in recent memory and will forever be a legend in Lawrence.
