Kansas Jayhawks’ New Stadium Symbolizes Program’s Resurgence, Though Work on Both Still Remains

The Jayhawks show rising momentum under Coach Leipold with a nearly finished stadium and recent wins against ranked opponents, signaling progress despite a 5-7 record last season.

  • David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium's renovation reflects the program's revival as cranes finish the east side and end zones after two years.
  • After opening at temporary venues, Kansas lost five of their first six games at Children's Mercy Park and Arrowhead Stadium.
  • On offense, Jim Zebrowski was promoted to offensive coordinator after Jeff Grimes left for Wisconsin, while D.K. McDonald replaced Brian Borland as defensive coordinator.
  • Heading into this season, Leipold emphasized that `Now, on the flip side, it's our responsibility to play a brand  a style  of effective football that people want to come and see`, and fans are asked to create a special game-day environment.
  • Looking ahead, the Jayhawks face Texas Tech and Iowa State before hosting Kansas State on Oct. 25 in Lawrence.
