Xavier Rambo transfers to Delta State

Sophomore wide receiver Xavier Rambo transferred to Division II Delta State University prior to the spring semester, Kansas associate media relations director Mike Strauss and Delta State’s Web site confirmed.

The transfer culminates a disappointing tenure with the Jayhawks for Rambo.

Rambo arrived at Kansas in 2006 from South Oak Cliff High School in Dallas. An All-State honoree as a high school senior, Rambo redshirted his freshman year and did not see any game action in 2007 or 2008.

Despite not contributing on Saturdays, Rambo was named Scout Team Offensive Player of the Week once in 2007 and on two occasions in 2008.

Delta State is located in Cleveland, Mississippi, and its football team won the Gulf South Conference in 2007 and 2008 and the NCAA Division II national championship in 2000. The Statesmen advanced to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Division II football tournament before falling to North Alabama 55-34 last season.
