A 1973 All-American and fourth-place finisher in the Heisman Trophy voting, Jaynes finished his Kansas career with 5,132 passing yards and 35 touchdown passes.

Jaynes also reflects on what it meant to play college football so close to home after growing up in nearby Bonner Springs and the legacy of being one of the greatest quarterbacks ever to wear the Crimson and Blue.
