1. Jalon Daniels, QB, Kansas Football

Call me biased, call me crazy, but there’s no one who impacts his team more in the Big 12 than Jalon Daniels. He is the best player in the conference.

Daniels is someone who could finish as a Heisman Trophy finalist if he can avoid injury and lead Kansas to a more successful season. He’s a dual-threat demon who can complete some of the craziest throws you’ll ever witness. Continued progress will likely land him a contract with an NFL team a year from now. All we can hope is that he can lead us to the promised land.
