Jayhawks announce 2008 defensive line coach

The Kansas football coaching staff is in place for 2008 after some departures and shuffling of duties. The Jayhawks named Joe Bob Clements as the defensive line coach last Friday, replacing defensive coordinator Bill Young, who left for the same position at Miami. Clements worked most recently as the defensive line coach at San Diego State for two seasons after serving as a graduate assistant, recruiting coordinator and defensive ends coach at Kansas State for seven years. Prior to his coaching career, the Emporia native played at Kansas State while Kansas head coach Mark Mangino was an assistant coach for the Wildcats.

Football season will be recognized in March

Kansas football will celebrate the 2007 season at a ceremony scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on Sat., March 8. The recognition was originally slated to take place earlier in the year but several players’ participation in the NFL Combine conflicted with the ceremony. The event will be held at Allen Fieldhouse and is free to the public.
