Do these exist anymore at LSU? Or does everyone have a scholarship and NIL payments.

All players at LSU did receive NIL including walkons. I was told that directly. May have not been much but it was something.

Yes, there's still a Walk-Ons on Burbank Drive. The Boom Boom Shrimp are tasty.

I'm pretty sure it works like this now, but someone can correct me:

Technically a walk-on still exist, but for all intents and purposes doesn't. Means a kid isn't on a scholarship, but he still has to count against the 105. Also, they are required to get rev share which means they easily have their tuition covered and all other school expenses. NIL is on top of rev share, which they may or may not get, but probably isn't a ton of money if you are just walking on.

TLDR: Walk ons really don't exist anymore.
