Among the crew were right guard Trey Smith, center Creed Humphrey, rookie tackle Wanya Morris, left tackle Donovan Smith and right tackle Jawaan Taylor.
The players hyped up the crowd as chants ensued with the announcer making their presence known.
Humphrey, who attended the University of Oklahoma, later posted on social media it was a “great night in Allen Fieldhouse.”

Coincidentally, KU released the Jayhawks’ football schedule earlier Tuesday.
All six of the team’s “home games” will be played in the Kansas City area — two at Children’s Mercy Park in Kansas City, Kansas, and four at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri.
Reconstruction of KU’s David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium as well as development of the surrounding Gateway District are underway, keeping the team from playing in Lawrence.
Kansas quarterback Jalon Daniels gave a shoutout to Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes since he’ll be playing in 15’s territory.

Mahomes recently visited Lawrence during the bye week in November to catch the KU-Texas Tech football game. He played for the Red Raiders in college.
The Chiefs head to Las Vegas on Sunday for Super Bowl LVIII against the San Francisco 49ers on Feb. 11 at Allegiant Stadium.
