Kansas’ steady, award-watchlist long snapper: Luke Hosford
Hosford is Kansas’ primary long snapper and a dependable special-teams piece, having played in all 12 games in 2024 for the Jayhawks and earning preseason recognition on the Patrick Mannelly Award watch list. At 6-2, 225, the redshirt senior brings experience, consistency, and the kind of low-drama reliability coaches love at a specialist spot. He is not a box-score player, but his value shows up in clean operation, roster stability, and trust on field goals and punts.
