Austin Booker to enter transfer portal

He would have helped our very average to poor pass rush a lot this year. He was a significant loss on the field.

The defense was good regardless. Ky may have been a difference maker vs Purdue.

37 tackles & 3.5 sacks on a 1-8 (Big 12) ISU defense that gave up 62 pts to TCU

Yep. They both may have been difference-makers. They both would have been nice to have.

Lance Leipold must like the Gopher bench. Guys who are trained up, probably fit his culture, and obviously better than what Kansas already had.

Lance Leipold will be harvesting players who went through the RTB development program in the coming years. He knows value when he sees the impact it brings to KU Football.

He will have four former Gophers from the Transfer Portal for the 2023 season. They won't be the last in the pipeline. You can bet that players buried in the Gophers' depth chart are paying attention.

It is a bummer to lose players like Booker and Thomas.
