Video: Kansas coordinator Rob Likens describes Jayhawks’ new spread offense

LAWRENCE

Four days into fall camp, Kansas offensive coordinator Rob Likens is still learning about his two true freshmen quarterbacks, Ryan Willis and Carter Stanley. But a general theme emerged Monday, when Likens spoke to reporters before the Jayhawks’ fourth practice of the fall.

It won’t be easy for a true freshman to win the starting job — at least right out of the gate.

“I’m not saying it can’t be done,” Likens said, “but it’s just very unique.”

The main reason: Time.

There is approximately four weeks between the start of fall camp and the first week of the season.
