WR Quentin Skinner

Skinner is already one of KU’s best receivers, but do not be surprised if he takes massive steps in 2023. The 6-foot-4 athletic wideout was one of Jalon Daniels’ top deep threats last year, catching 26 passes for 440 yards and five touchdowns.

Lawrence Arnold is KU’s leading target on the outside, but Skinner’s ability to beat defensive backs with his height makes him a tremendous asset. He must continue to strengthen the connection between him and his quarterback to have a breakout season.
