Pulling away: Three receivers earning separation in KU preseason camp | KUsports.com
“Separation has occurred,” Kubiak said. “We’ve got two individuals who have stepped up. (Virginia Tech transfer) Joshua Stanford has done a really good job, so we’ve moved him up. (Senior) Tre’ Parmalee has maintained his spot, and that third guy is a real fight.” Moments later, Kubiak added walk-on Shakiem Barbel’s name to the list and apologized for leaving him off initially.
I watched Virginia Tech transfer Joshua Stanford — and, yes, he prefers Joshua to Josh — a lot more closely at today's practice and it's very easy to see why the coaches like this guy. He's all business, very polished and has a nice combination of good feet, good hands and good route-running ability. His ability to get off the line against press coverage was particularly impressive — and speaks to his veteran status — and he has so much success there mostly because of his feet, though his hands definitely play a role. Very nice late addition who should contend to lead the Jayhawks in receiving this season.

KU football doubles its summer running from a season ago | Cjonline.com Mobile
In the previous two seasons, KU football players lifted weights four days a week and went through conditioning twice a week. The running part essentially doubled this offseason with the arrival of new strength coach Je’Ney Jackson, as the Jayhawks ran four days each week instead of two. “It’s definitely the toughest summer I’ve ever been through,” the senior receiver Parmalee said. “The running was crazy.”
"We should start to see some real separation in Saturday's scrimmage," Beaty continued. "You can't really fully evaluate a player until the pads come on and the game becomes full speed."
