Walk ons.

[Hville]

So with all the predictions of depth.....or shortage of it......seems like nobody ever takes in account of the walk-ons. Every mention of depth almost always includes names of scholie players but no non-scholarship. I have to believe we are going to have a few surprises.

agree. from what I've read, the walk on class is impressive.

@Hville -- thanks for opening this thread! I was thinking about the same this morning ... was wondering if there is enough speed, athleticism, talent, etc amongst the walk-ons to make a larger contribution on Special Teams units ... something that will continue to keep the 'fire burning' in years to come if there is some semblance of opportunity to get on the field, even if it is only on a kick or punt coverage unit.

Doubtful any of 2018 walkon class with contribute as freshman.

So last year's walkons are more likely to contribute. As are 2015 and 2016 walk-ons.

I'm not sure who constitutes that list.

I know the OL from Millard North (cant remember hs name) in the 2018 class got mentioned.

If Dixon can’t get off the field stuff worked out, and Tannor doesn’t take the next step, with Domann and Ferguson injury history, Johnson or Paup will get their crack at significant playing time. Tho JJ may be needed inside.

Go to this thread: https://forum.huskermax.com/index.php?threads/2018-scholarship-numbers.101318/
@TheOneders keeps it updated, and all walk-ons are listed on post #2.

He's got a shot for sure. Miller and Hixson will too.
