Duane Morris, Kansas University’s quarterback from 1957 to 1959, died early Friday at Lawrence Memorial Hospital after a sudden illness. He was 68.
Morris in November organized a reunion of his former teammates before the KU-Nebraska game, the first victory for the Jayhawks against the Cornhuskers in 36 years. Morris was 3-0 versus Nebraska when he played.
Ken Morris, Duane’s son, said the funeral service would be 10:30 a.m. Tuesday at Plymouth Congregational Church.
