You have to respect kids like this. He has 5 offers from small schools but decided to walk on at LSU where he knows he may never see the field. Welcome aboard.

When Jacob Hester received his scholarship people said the same thing about him. I hope he has a great career.

StupidBinder•90 months

This 100%. I root for kids like this all day. Welcome Josh!

I know at least some if not all of those schools don’t offer athletic scholarships for football. I know Drake/Dayton/Lafayette don’t for sure.

Meantime keep your negative comments to yourself

I bet you he ends up contributing. Don't count this one out just because he is a walkon.

CaptainKirk80•90 months

Yep, he will be all SEC. Stars are for suckas

TheWalrus•90 months

Welcome! Work hard and make a name for yourself!

Kid is probably pretty bright and on a scholarship for academics. You don't go to kinkaid as a dummy. One of the most exclusive private schools in Texas. Hopefully he can find a place on the team.

CaptainJ47•90 months

Welcome aboard young man!

Judging a book by the cover but this guy appears to have his stuff together. I love his confidence. I hope all you negas are kissing his arse in two years. Best of luck to this young man.

Kid has the chest and the want....

BOZ4LSU•90 months

Kid is not afraid of competition!

TigerSpray•90 months

So, who is his daddy?

Fleabag53•90 months

Hmm, wasn't Baker Mayfield a Walk-On as well. Just saying.... Don't sleep on this kid. Welcome to LSU young man.

BlackTiger89•90 months

He probably can play cornerback..

I always wonder why preferred walk-one go to big schools like LSU. I know there’s the rare success story but a buddy of mine did it and has regretted it for a few years now.
He said he wishes he would’ve gone somewhere that wanted him, not somewhere that would take him.

Erebody different.

180 lbs running back...that ain't right!!!

Fightin Okra•90 months

Sproles says “hey”
Put 20 on him and he is close to the Amendola, Kamara, etc role

225Tyga•90 months

wonder why we took him? Feel like there are probably more people out there that we could have given a preferred walk on to that would have accepted

StupidBinder•90 months

How many guys out there are both good enough to offer a guaranteed roster spot to, and willing to pass on scholly’s to other schools? Go ahead and name them.

SomeLSUguy•90 months

He is not getting a football scholarship... Maybe some academic money, but that does not count against the teams scholarships. If nothing else, he is a practice dummy... either way, it is a win for us.

Meantime, Bama and Clemson are getting 5 stars and winning championships. Now that is the harsh truth.

Nix to Twillie•90 months

Our class is currently ranked higher than Clemson’s. Another “harsh truth.”

rob62•90 months

Another harsh truth is you are a fricking idiot. Every program has a need for a walk on program. Even your great Bama team has one. You are an insulting dimwit.

GoneFishing21•90 months

Bama had 6 preferred walk-ons last year and Clemson has them also.
