Jason Bean's mindset, preparation have him ready to lead KU's offense vs. Oklahoma
Bean was KU’s starter for the first nine games of the 2021 season. He led an offense that didn’t have a full offseason to install Andy Kotelnicki’s scheme and was one of the youngest units in the entire Power 5. Bean did his best considering the circumstances. KU had an overall record of 1-8 with the North Texas transfer as the signal caller and the quarterback completed 56.4 percent of his passes with six touchdowns and six interceptions. On the ground, he carried the ball 91 times for 399 yards and two scores.
