Alright, so I was trying to figure out who’s gonna be playing where for the KU football team this year, the 2023 season. You know, like, who’s the starting quarterback, who’s on defense, that sort of thing. I wanted to get a clear picture of the KU football depth chart for 2023. It wasn’t as straightforward as I thought it would be, honestly.
First, I started poking around the usual sports websites. You know the ones. I figured they’d have the depth chart all laid out nice and neat. I checked all the KU dedicated sites, but they only had information from last year. No luck there. They had articles and stuff about the team, but nothing that really showed the full depth chart.
Then I thought, okay, maybe I should look at some fan forums or something. Surely, some die-hard fans would have put together a depth chart based on what they’ve seen in practices or heard from the coaches. So I dove into those. I spent a good chunk of time reading through posts and comments, trying to piece things together.
And you know what? It was a bit of a mess. Lots of speculation, some conflicting info, and definitely no official depth chart. People were arguing about who should be starting where, which freshmen were making an impression, and all that. It was interesting, for sure, but not exactly what I was looking for.
Digging Deeper
Next, I figured I should check out the official KU Athletics website. Surely, they would have the most accurate information, right? Nope, nothing. I mean, they had player profiles and team news, but no actual depth chart. It was pretty surprising, actually.
So, I was kind of stuck. I had bits and pieces of information, but nothing concrete. I decided to go back to those fan forums and try to make some sense of it all. I started compiling the names I saw mentioned most often for each position. I kind of made my own little unofficial depth chart based on what I was seeing.

It took a while, but eventually, I had something that looked like a depth chart. It wasn’t perfect, and I’m sure there will be changes throughout the season, but it was a start. Here’s what I found the most popular choices for some key positions to be:
- Quarterback: I found that the starting quarterback position is most likely to be Jason Bean or Jalon Daniels.
- Running Back: For running back, most seemed to agree that Devin Neal will be getting the bulk of the carries.
- Wide Receiver: There seems to be less debate about the wide reciever position. Luke Grimm, Lawrence Arnold, and Quentin Skinner are the top three in that order.
- Tight End: There are a lot of names being discussed to fill the tight end position, but it seems that Mason Fairchild and Trevor Kardell are the most likely to get the most playtime.
- Defense: There isn’t a lot of clarity on who is going to be playing on defense this season, but some names like Cobee Bryant, Kenny Logan Jr., and Ra’Mello Dotson popped up.
All in all, figuring out the KU football depth chart for 2023 was a real journey. It wasn’t easy, but I learned a lot along the way. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see how it all plays out on the field. Rock Chalk!
