Preferred Walk-on Quarterbacks
Posted on 7/4/18 at 6:31 pm

We all know the story of Baker Mayfield, walking on at two different colleges, and subsequently winning the Heisman. My question is: Has any preferred walk-on quarterback ever been relevant at LSU? Why do they sign on? I see where some have offers from other places(small schools). Does the coaching staff even look to see if these guys have anything to offer?Quarterback play by guys LSU recruited has been less than stellar, maybe they could do better. Maybe a guy from the baseball team LOL!

They get to tell chicks they play QB for LSU, that’s about it

so outside of mayfield what other quarterback out of the thousands who have played major college football can you name to have walked on and won a heisman?

Being on the team at LSU>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> "small schools" if you're in it just for the college life experience.
I mean, it's not like LSU's tuition is going to break the bank.

not many people in this world can say that they played QB for a major university...walk-ons can check that box. I would certainly help in the dating department, but honestly, simply being able to say that you played football for LSU opens all kinds of doors in later life. And, if the team wins a national championship while you are playing, you get a ring just like the scholarship guys.

Short QBs are sometimes alltime great bargains
Drew Bree’s in the second
Russell Wilson in the 4th
Kinda paved the way for Mayfield at 1.

Was Andrew Hatch a walk on? I can't remember.

I rather sit the bench at LSU than start at Southeastern. It would probably open a lot of networking doors in your career after college especially if you wanted to be a coach.
