LAWRENCE, Kan. (WIBW) - KU head football coach Lance Leipold has named the new — and remaining — members of the Jayhawks’ coaching staff.

Leipold will bring five coaches who worked with him at Buffalo to Lawrence and keep five who were already with the Jayhawks.

I am extremely proud of the staff we have assembled here at Kansas,” Leipold said. “It’s no secret how much I value continuity among a coaching staff, and I truly believe we’ve achieved that here. This is a great blend of coaches who know the philosophies and principles I want to bring to this program and coaches who know the ins-and-outs of Kansas Football as well as our current personnel. We have elite talent developers, excellent recruiters and hard workers ready to do their very best for the student-athletes on this roster.”

Here is KU’s coaching staff for the upcoming season:

  1. Brian Borland: Defensive Coordinator
  2. Kwahn Drake: Defensive Line
  3. Scott Fuchs: Offensive Line
  4. Chevis Jackson: Cornerbacks
  5. Emmett Jones: Wide Receivers
  6. Andy Kotelnicki: Offensive Coordinator
  7. Jake Schoonover: Special Teams Coordinator
