    Jayhawks & Wildcats SWITCHING SIDES? | Jordan Peterson, Dylan Edwards Rumors + KU vs K-State Hoops

    Kansas Jayhawks and Kansas State Wildcats ignite offseason drama as Dylan Edwards, the explosive former Kansas State running back, emerges as a potential transfer to KU. Will his move intensify the Sunflower Showdown rivalry or give both programs unexpected advantages?
