The Kansas football coaching staff would love to have these three players back on board with the team for the 2024 season.

The Kansas football program is finally thriving under head coach Lance Leipold. The Jayhawks are heading to a bowl game for a consecutive season on Dec. 26 to face UNLV in the Guaranteed Rate Bowl after winning eight games in 2023.

However, an improved team also comes with the possibility of players transferring out or leaving for the NFL.

There are several Jayhawks who could hear their names called on draft day in the future. Some could come in a few years, while others in a few months.

KU has an influx of talent coming in with its highly-touted 2024 recruiting class. Regardless, losing any of these three high-impact players would be detrimental and it’s important that Leipold’s staff returns as much production as possible.

These are three Kansas football players that Jayhawks fans would love to have back in 2024.
