Other than the fact he's recovering from shoulder surgery, Kenny Logan Jr. has enjoyed the fact he's back with Kansas football for one last year. Logan has found himself soaking in certain moments as he's been able to walk around campus. Logan, who'll be a senior safety again for the Jayhawks in 2023, has been able to be around his Kansas teammates once more during what is set to be his last spring ball with the program. Even the opportunities to walk into Allen Fieldhouse to watch some basketball have stuck out to him. But just because Logan could dwell on the fact he has to make his way back from injury, in his fifth and final year playing college football, doesn't mean he is.It doesn't mean his limited availability will keep him from trying t o improve as the team's spring session continues. Logan is trying to live in the moment as it all transpires. "Really, just get better off the field," Logan said when asked about his goals. "Become a better football player. Become a better leader, and re ally like a coach. Just try to make sure that I'm influencing the guys around me to get better, pushing myself, challenging myself mentally to make sure that I'm staying focused and locked in and in tune with everything going on." The goals Logan has for this spring came both from his own desires and that of the coaching staff. Those discussions have played a part in what he's focusing on. Whether it's rehab or watching film or something else, Logan is committed to improving. - Topeka Capital Journal

Kansas safety Kenny Logan Jr. always figured he would leave KU after the 2022 season. But last week, after a fair amount of reflection, Logan decided to stay for one more season. He announced his decision to return to KU for his final season of college e ligibility in a video on social media. On Monday, during the program's pre-Liberty Bowl media day, Logan shared what went into the decision. "I felt like it was the best thing for me, and it was a chance to come back and help this program," He said. "I s aw what we did this year and I know there's a lot more we still can do." Asked specifically what he was deciding between, Logan said simply, "Here or going to the NFL." As it turns out, the NFL can wait.Logan has been a tackling machine during the past two seasons with the Jayhawks. In 2021, he led the Big 12 in tackles, with 113 - the most by a safety in the entire NCAA - and this year, with a better supporting cast around him, Logan recorded a team-best 96 tackles and also snatched two intercep tions, with four pass break-ups. Logan said he talked with his teammates, KU coach Lance Leipold and his family about the decision before making the final call. And he said Leipold's very public desire to have him back with the program next season played an important role in the final call. "That meant a lot, because me and coach's relationship was really strong," Logan said Monday. "So, to hear him say that, to hear him want to coach me one more time, was definitely exciting." - Lawrence Journal World

Kenny Logan Jr. announced Friday he will return to Kansas in 2023 for his fifth season of college football. Logan, a senior safety for the Jayhawks in 2022, had a few different options when it came to what's next after this year. The veteran talent could have turned pro, or even chosen to play his last year of eligibility with another program. But in a video he posted on Twitter he said he's staying in Lawrence. "Jayhawk nation, for four years you made a kid from North Florida feel at home," Logan said. "You packed the Booth and helped us get this thing rolling. But I came to Kansas to turn around the program, and we're just getting started. "I have one more year, and I'll be playing right here in Lawrence, Kansas. Rock Chalk."Logan's decision a dds further depth to a secondary that figures to bring back more players who'll be upperclassmen next year, like safeties Marvin Grant and O.J. Burroughs and cornerbacks Cobee Bryant and Kalon Gervin. It'll create more competition for playing time, both on defense and on special teams. Logan may not have had quite as successful a season individually in 2022 compared to 2021 in coach Lance Leipold's first year at the helm, but he is once again leading the team in tackles. He's been a part of an effort th at's propelled the Jayhawks to their first bowl game since 2008. Kansas (6-6, 3-6 Big 12) also has more wins this season, overall and in conference play, than Logan's first three years in Lawrence combined. Leipold wanted Logan to come back. So did defen sive coordinator Brian Borland. And both coaches are getting their wish, as preparation continues for the Liberty Bowl matchup on Dec. 28 against Arkansas (6-6, 3-5 SEC). - Topeka Capital Journal

2022 ALL-BIG 12 FOOTBALL HONORABLE MENTION: Kenny Logan Jr. (DB),...Kansas' leading tackler with 96 to his credit, Logan ranked fifth in the Big 12 Conference in tackles, while his 96 takedowns were the most by a Big 12 defensive back this season.

Alabama reclaimed No. 1 from Georgia in The Associated Press college football poll in one of the closest votes in the recent years, and six teams — including Kansas — made their season debut on Sunday. The Crimson Tide received 25 first-place votes a nd 1,523 points in the AP Top 25 presented by Regions Bank, two points more than the Bulldogs. Georgia received 28 first-place votes to become the first team since Alabama in November 2019 to have the most first-place votes but not be No. 1. The Tide was No. 2 behind LSU that year, with 21 first-place votes to the Tigers' 17. The last time there was a two-point margin between Nos. 1 and 2 was Nov. 1, 2020, when Clemson was ahead of Alabama. There have been three other polls with a two-point margin at th e top since 2007. Ohio State remained third, but the Buckeyes also gained some ground on the top two, getting 10 first-place votes.The Crimson Tide started the season at No. 1, but the defending national champion Bulldogs took the top spot away fr om their Southeastern Conference rivals after Week 2 when Alabama needed a late field goal to beat Texas. The Bulldogs remain unbeaten but needed a fourth-quarter rally to beat four-touchdown underdog Missouri on Saturday night. Earlier in the day, the T ide managed to pull away from Arkansas in the second half without Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young. Young sprained his throwing shoulder in the first half and missed most of the game in Fayetteville, Arkansas. No. 4 Michigan, No. 5 Clemson and No. 6 Sou thern California all won and held their places this week, though the Wolverines and Tigers are now separated by just three points. No. 7 Oklahoma State, followed by Tennessee, Mississippi and Penn State, round out the top 10. The rest of the AP Top 25 go t a major overhaul after 10 ranked teams lost, five to unranked opponents. That cleared the way for seven teams to move into the rankings this week, most notably No. 19 Kansas. The Jayhawks are ranked for the first time since Oct. 18, 2009, which was the longest drought for a team currently in a Power Five conference. - AP College Football

Kansas safety Kenny Logan Jr. plays against TCU during the second half of a game on Nov. 20, 2021, in Fort Worth, Texas. After a season in which Kansas' Kenny Logan Jr. led all safeties in Power 5 conferences with 113 tackles, he has his sights set highe r as a senior. "I want to try to lead the NCAA in interceptions and try to lead the conference in interceptions," Logan said. Logan was reliable on the back end of the Jayhawks' defense last season, with only Kent State's Dean Clark, who had 116 tackles, finishing with more among FBS safeties. He made 79 tackles by himself and had four for a loss and was a second-team All-Big 12 player after the season. That led to his selection Monday to the watch list for the Thorpe Award, given to the nation's best d efensive back.Intercepting passes is a different skill than making tackles, especially for a player who had just one interception last season and had two the year before. But Logan's boast, made during Big 12 football media days earlier this month , comes from the ideas that he broke up six passes last season and that he feels more confident in his defensive teammates. Kansas junior safety Kenny Logan Jr. intercepts the ball against Texas Tech. Kansas fell 41-14 Saturday, Oct. 16, 2021. "I don't w ant as many tackles this year because we have great linebackers that came in, so I don't feel like I'm going to have that many tackles," Logan said. - Lawrence Journal World

Kenny Logan Jr. has a smile on his face, and his right hand raised in the air. Standing on the field inside AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, last week, Logan is aiming to take a turn at asking his Kansas football teammate a question. It's the Big 12 Con ference's media days for football, and sophomore running back Devin Neal is in the midst of answering questions from reporters. Logan, a senior safety, begins to grill - not really - Neal. "Who would be the best player on KU's defense," Logan asks. "Best player on KU's defense? I would probably say (super-senior defensive lineman) Caleb Sampson," says Neal, deadpan, before smiling as he continues, "Nah, I'm playing Kenny, you got it." "Who would be the hardest person to get by on KU's defense?" Logan pr esses, smiling still. "Kenny Logan," Neal responds, before laughing and moving on. 'That's just Kenny being Kenny' In all, the exchange lasts only about 30 seconds during a day that has athletes and coaches from various Big 12 teams talking about the mon ths ahead.If only for a brief moment, it breaks up a setting where the questions can become repetitive at times. And, as should likely be expected, Logan is the one involved. Because, among the Jayhawks set to play for head coach Lance Leipold thi s fall, there might not be a bigger personality than Logan. And don't just take a teammate's word for it, like junior quarterback Jalon Daniels. Logan feels that way, too. "Just because I'm always outgoing," Logan said, after picking himself. "I always l ike to have fun. I'll pick, mess with, anybody on the team, and they know that's just Kenny being Kenny. So, I would say definitely me. I mess with coach Leipold. I mess with coach Leipold when he's down. I mess with (director of sports performance) coac h (Matt Gildersleeve). I'll mess with anybody just to brighten up their day." - Topeka Capital Journal

Kenny Logan Jr. is still gaining attention for what he accomplished last season. The Kansas senior, whose 113 tackles were the most in the conference by a safety, was selected to the preseason All-Big 12 team on Wednesday. He was the only player on the J ayhawks recognized by the conference, which named 29 players, including five defensive backs, to a first and a second team. Logan, an All-Big 12 second-team player last season, also forced two fumbles, recovered one, had an interception and broke up six passes.He had a season-high 15 tackles in the 31-28 loss at TCU on Nov. 20 and followed that with 14 tackles in the finale, a 34-28 home loss to West Virginia on Nov. 27. He also finished with at least 10 tackles in three other games last season. A starter since 2020, Logan is expected to resume that role this fall for the Jayhawks, though the back end of the secondary will look different than it did a year ago. - Lawrence Journal World

The University of Kansas athletic department has joined forces with Altius Sports Partners for its name, image and likeness initiatives, KU Athletic Director Travis Goff announced Monday. The partnership, which is centered around Altius as a consultant f or best practices in the NIL space, was announced by Altius late last week. It does not replace KU's deal with Sixth Man Strategies, rather opens a door for Altius to work with Sixth Man Strategies, and others, to provide NIL opportunities for KU's stude nt-athletes. Sixth Man Strategies - and, later, 12th Man Strategies for KU football - has been handling KU's men's basketball NIL opportunities since the NCAA first began allowing athletes to profit on NIL last July.According to the Altius release , "the partnership is designed to maintain (KU's) position on the cutting edge in the changing collegiate environment. The Altius Sports team will provide coaches and staff with educational workshops and resources targeting areas such as group licensing, managing external partnerships, and recruiting. Altius Sports will also assist in identifying and advising on strategies to support and empower the program's student-athletes across varsity sports." During Monday's quarterly meeting of the Kansas Athlet ic, Inc., board of directors, Goff said he was "alarmed" by what had taken place with NIL on a national scale during the past six months. But he added that he remained proud of the way KU approached the changing landscape and said he thought it would be critical for KU's athletic department to continue to evolve in the space. - Topeka Capital Journal

Devin Neal and Kenny Logan Jr. each had reasons to be excited about this week. The two Kansas football players, Neal a running back and Logan a safety, were able to enjoy a bit of a break ahead of returning to campus. Logan said there was a team meeting Monday, and both said workouts were set to start up Tuesday. Both expressed an eagerness to get back to work, ahead of Neal's second season with the Jayhawks and Logan's fourth. Logan acknowledged the confidence boost that comes with the various transfer commitments Kansas has earned, especially in the secondary. And those newcomers join a group that already has athletes Logan thinks people should be keeping an eye on, like a safety in O.J. Burroughs who'll be a sophomore this fall, and others. But, off the field Monday, there was another reason for Neal and Logan to be excited.They were at the 5K Home Run supporting Family Promise of Lawrence, which is an organization that assists families in Douglas County experiencing a housing crisis. Their participation represented an intersection of the name, image and likeness (NIL) space and work with a charitable organization - an intersection that the two of them would like to see continue moving forward. "I definitely see this could lead to future ch aritable things, and just doing some good for the community," said Neal, who was also joined by other fellow Jayhawks teammates. "And I sure hope that other organizations come to me and a few other football guys, because I think we could be great represe ntation for their programs." Logan added: "I was definitely excited about this opportunity, but if more opportunities come up for me to be a part of, and me to help out, I'm definitely going to accept them." - Topeka Capital Journal

On the wrong end of another blowout defeat Saturday, Kansas football could at least take solace in what turned into a breakout game for safety Kenny Logan. No stranger to those kinds of performances himself, wide receiver Andrew Parchment has a working t heory on what allowed his sophomore teammate to produce highlight after highlight. "That's Florida, you know what I mean," said Parchment, a product of Fort Lauderdale, Fla. "I feel like once Kansas gets down in Florida for the next couple of (recruiting ) classes, I feel like we'll have a lot more players just like that." Territorial pride aside, Logan was a sorely needed revelation for the Jayhawks. KU (0-6, 0-5 Big 12) fell 52-22 to then-No. 23 Iowa State at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium, but it wasn't for a lack of trying from Logan. The St. Augustine, Fla., native - one of seven Sunshine State players on the Jayhawk roster - notched both a 100-yard kickoff return touchdown and an interception in the second half of a contest that saw KU trail by just 16 with seven minutes remaining.A former three-star recruit, Logan also had three tackles and one pass breakup versus the Cyclones. It was an outing head coach Les Miles said he sensed Logan would be capable of when he offered the 6-foot, 195-pounder a spot in his first Jayhawk recruiting class. "We watched his film. We did an evaluation. He is just what you saw (Saturday)," Miles said. "He has the potential to break a play. He has that potential to break a game open. Yeah, I probably und erexpressed his talent, but his talent is pretty extreme. He's fast and tough and will strike you. "Yeah, I think we'll look forward to him for quite some time." - Topeka Capital Journal

Kenny Logan Jr. appeared in all 12 games for the Kansas football team as a true freshman a year ago. But if your eyes weren't glued to the action during special teams situations you might have missed him. Logan should be much easier to spot when the Jayh awks play this season, with his role expanding to defense. "I think he'll play several spots for us," KU head coach Les Miles said of Logan, a defensive back and returner from St. Augustine, Fla. "Could easily be playing the Hawk linebacker, could be the box safety kind of guy. But Kenny's going to play. He's going to play significantly soon."One of the more highly regarded three-star prospects in Miles' first KU recruiting class, Logan, a three-star athlete in the Class of 2019, picked up offers from Auburn, Ole Miss, Nebraska, Miami (Fla.), Iowa State and other programs before joining the Jayhawks. In his first year at KU, Logan was too talented to keep off the field. The coaches deployed him on special teams, where much of his reps came on ki ckoffs. Logan returned nine kicks, averaging 16.7 yards a return. Plus, he ended up returning a team-high five punts, and Logan's 14-yard return at Texas proved to be the Jayhawks' longest of the season. - Lawrence Journal World
