Are Bourbon and Cox coming back next season?

I cannot find the answer anywhere.

Here is a good summary of their situation. They are both 5th years having red-shirted before and both have graduated and chose to stay at KU. KU lists Cox as having been granted a medical red-shirt but it does not say anything about Bourbon, but I will guess the same is true for him.
Since they have graduated, I believe they could transfer to another school and play immediately; however, since they both stayed and are attending graduate school, it looks like the will be playing at KU one more season. I hope this answers your questions.

@JayHawkFanToo not exactly sure on which one, but one of them was honored on senior day- I think?

Thanks for the heads up. I know Cox was granted a 6th year medical red shirt since the KU Athletic site indicates that much, so it probably was Bourbon??? If that is the case, then he might not be coming back.
This article indicates that Bourbon was indeed honored as a senior, so he likely is not coming back. Bourbon is a 4.0 student so he might have finished his graduate degree and if the NFL is not in his future, it would certainly make no sense for him to come back.
