Nate Sims, a local receiver from Ottawa, committed to playing college football for the Kansas Jayhawks for the 2026 recruiting class. Sims, a three-star recruit, chose Kansas over Kansas State and Oklahoma State. He expressed his excitement and relief at achieving his dream of playing college football, mentioning that he felt underappreciated during the recruiting process. Sims visited KU for Junior Day and was in attendance at a Jayhawks game in Kansas City. He becomes the fifth commitment for KU in the 2026 class, joining other in-state recruits. The Jayhawks continue to focus on recruiting in-state talent, with several recruits from Kansas already committed. Sims will join a group of wide receivers from the 2025 class, showing a strong focus on building the team’s receiving corps for the future. This commitment adds to the Jayhawks’ efforts to improve their roster through recruiting local talent and building a competitive team for the upcoming seasons.
