Kansas football: What to watch for during 2021 spring practices
Kansas football kicks off spring practices this week, which will present the Jayhawks with an opportunity to take a new direction.
With spring practices kicking off this week, Kansas football will suit up for an unexpected spring with interim head coach Emmett Jones in charge.
It might seem like Kansas has seen some of the worst news of any Power 5 program during the offseason, but the priority should be getting players back on track before the fall.
A common worry has been about players’ commitment to the program. While multiple players have spoken out about their commitment to the University, avoiding any more problematic scenarios would be a good start.
Nevertheless, it’s good to see that some of these guys want to be here.
I can’t stress enough how much coach Miles means to me and this team. But everything good or bad happens for a reason. It’s just another bump for everyone involved in this game called life.

Hopefully, this shouldn’t be an issue, as Kansas is expected to select its new Athletic Director within the coming weeks.
Those concerns aside, Kansas will be back on the field and we should hope that will mean some sort of progress. There is some known talent to work with on this roster, but a few surprises wouldn’t hurt either.
Here are a few things to keep your eyes out for during this year’s spring practices.
