Seems quiet on the walk on front for FB. Any news out there?

I don't know any but I know one JUCO that isn't. Cason (3*) from Iowa Central I think is going to UNI. Heard it from his boss with him standing there at work the other day. They said they felt that was the best fit for education for him. Something about giving him a personal tutor, etc. I don't know if we were looking at him at all but it's just what I know.

That Ben Davis kid that was playing for Wahlert is going to walk on at either ISU or Iowa, but he doesn't know yet.

I have never heard this, do you mean all quiet on the Western Front? What does quiet on the walk on front mean?

Is there a signing period for walkons or do they just show up in the summer?

I'm pretty sure some will sign a NLI.

Walk-ons don't sign a NLI. A NLI in football guarantees that the athlete will have their financial aid and all that jazz covered by the school. It's basically signing a scholarship agreement.

Walk-ons don't receive an athletic scholarship and therefore don't sign a NLI.

A guy from Ankeny was invited to walk-on. His name is Spenser Zegers I believe.

Sorry, I was only jesting.

I would suspect we have lots of intrigue going on right now to hget people to walk on and the less w e know the better from coaches standpoint. That said, Nebraska has identified 16 people to walk on as they reinvigorated their program. They want to suck up any potnetial D-1 player from leaving their state.
