re: Does LSU baseball have any true Walk Ons?

There is a big difference in a preferred walk-on/walk-on and a roster spot.

That's just not true. A walk on can earn a roster spot, like what Cotton did. Preffered walk ons are generally guaranteed a roster spot, they are just deemed walk ons for scholarship reasons, and get scholly money from other means. A preferred walk on and a practice squad walk on are not the same thing.

I remember Laird being a preferred walk on his Freshaman year. Rhymes was also a preferred walk on if I remember correctly and didn't accept scholly money and just stuck to TOPS.
