The one year extension was humbling and appreciated. Goff and Girod have seen the progress. They know the stability and time it takes to do it right.

Good timing and ends and speculation.

Leipold said they talk about stability with recruits. When you look at what the program has gone through it is a good sign to everyone involved.

On film review he likes the depth and guys on 1st and 2nd team have some good players. They handled their business against Tenn Tech. He liked that approach. Saw a lot of things they have to improve.

Neal Brown had a message for their fan base about losing a rivalry game. Leipold was asked about that and he talked about young kids are resilient. Said Neal is an outstanding coach and offensive mind.

Said he will have his team ready to play.

Said they will utilize their freshman RB and he will be a tough assignment.

Leipold said he was impressed with guys in the locker room after the game about let's celebrate the win but be ready to go the next game.

Asked whether he would have more non con games before starting conference games. He said he would rather play a conf game in week two and not have a bye week after the non game are over.

In jump in competition with WV need to be physical and have attention to detail. WV has added transfers in the portal. He said KU has done a good job but WVU has done a good job too. WV has about five defensive starters that are from the portal.

Their offense will be a challenge for KU's front seven.

Leipold said the run blocking in week one was good but he looks for improvement.

He said the improvements are there and what they liked to see.

Have to be better with ball security.

He said his team has confidence heading into a conference game. It will be a good test of where they are early.

Tanaka Scott is practicing and they will see how that progresses and he is available. Trevor is still suspended.
