Ex-Virginia Tech receiver Joshua Stanford becomes addition to Kansas football roster

LAWRENCE – On the day before camp, Kansas football coach David Beaty unveiled a roster with a slew of new names — a combination of transfers, walk-ons and intriguing newcomers.

The roster infusion included previously reported additions — former Texas A&M receiver LaQuvionte Gonzales, South Carolina graduate transfer linebacker Marcquis Roberts and former UAB receiver Quincy Perdue. But it also featured one talented wild card, former Virginia Tech receiver Joshua Stanford.

Stanford, who caught 40 passes for 640 yards for the Hokies as a redshirt freshman in 2013, was limited by injuries last season. His scholarship status is unclear, but he appears to be eligible to play right away.
