KU football adds D-Lineman to 2016 recruiting class | KUsports.com

Davis, who hails from the Wichita area, attended Eastern Arizona during his first season of college football. He recorded 76 tackles and earned all-conference honors there before moving on to Highland, where, this season, he has recorded 76 tackles and five sacks.

KU continues to stay the course. And, at this point, it's really all they can do. The players prepare hard and play harder. Head coach David Beaty has stayed consistent with regard to the expectations in the program and the opponents, like Texas did Saturday, have continued to find areas to exploit the Kansas defense and make life tough for the young KU offense. Many wondered if KU's match-up with the Longhorns would give the Jayhawks a better chance to compete, given the fact that UT did not feature one of those nasty, break-neck offenses like Baylor, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech. And, for a little more than a half, compete they did. Maybe that gives reasonable cause for KU backers to think the same thing can happen against West Virginia and K-State. Then again, maybe not.

“I think he (Willis) looks pretty good,” Reesing told the Journal-World at halftime. “He’s a true freshman, and you can tell he doesn’t always know how to change the protection. I remember my first game as a freshman. You end up just saying, ‘Hut, there’s a blitz, what am I supposed to do? OK, I gotta beat this guy one-on-one.’ I had no idea how to do it. True story.”

“Even though we shot it miserably from the three-point line, I’m not worried about the shooting at all. I think one of the strengths of our team is going to be our perimeter shooting,” Self added.
