Lorenzo McCaskill, Kansas, Player News

Kansas defensive coordinator Brian Borland said Thursday that linebacker Lorenzo McCaskill's transfer from Louisiana will provide the Jayhawks with an accomplished player at a position that could have benefited from additional experience. McCaskill, who participated in practice for the first time on Thursday morning wearing No. 7, is a 6-foot, 220-pound sixth-year senior from Detroit who was named to the All-Sun Belt second team last season. He played inside linebacker in Louisiana's 3-3-5 scheme, which is slightly different than the 4-3 base defense the Jayhawks use. "He's an inside linebacker, probably more of that middle linebacker spot for us, so I'm sure that's something similar to what he did," Borland said. "Kids are adaptable. He'll learn our s cheme. He'll adapt, and there's things - even though it's a different alignment and things like that, a lot of it's still the same. Football is football, so I don't have any problem or any worry that he won't catch on or he won't fit in."McCaskill 's transfer was delayed as he finished his coursework at Louisiana. He spent his first season at Holmes Community College in Goodman, Mississippi, before transferring to Louisiana in 2018 and started all 12 games last season for the Ragin' Cajuns, who we re the Sun Belt champion in 2020 and 2021 and reached a bowl game in each of his four seasons. He decided to leave Louisiana in January, after coach Billy Napier was hired at Florida, and initially received interest from USC and Tennessee but wanted to f ind somewhere he could play more often. - Lawrence Journal World

McCaskill, who is 6 feet and 220 pounds, led Louisiana with 84 tackles last season while playin g in 13 games. A native of Detroit, he spent his first season at Holmes Community College in Goodman, Mississippi, before transferring to Louisiana in 2018 and will have just one season of eligibility remaining.He is the second linebacker who has decided to transfer to Kansas in the last month. Tristian Fletcher, who was a freshman last season at Trinity Valley Community College, did so on June 11 during an official visit. "I appreciate KU and the coaching staff for the loyalty I have seen alread y," McCaskill wrote on Twitter. "For that, I will give this program all I have." McCaskill started 12 games last season at Louisiana, which reached a bowl game in each of his four seasons and was the Sun Belt champion in 2020 and 2021. He was the mike li nebacker for the Ragin' Cajuns who had a base 3-4 defense but often ran 3-3-5 principles with a hybrid outside linebacker/defensive back. He decided to transfer in early January, not long after coach Billy Napier left for Florida, and Kansas offered him a scholarship on June 14. - Topeka Capital Journal
