Walker is currently IU's highest rated signee and running back is a position where Indiana had to upgrade it's quality depth. He is a top-500 player in the nation and chose the Hoosiers over Virginia and 12 other schools.
Walker has a chance to be really special. He helped lead Hopewell to a state title with 1,344 rushing yards and 20 total touchdowns. Walker joins a crowded backfield, but should compete for major playing time in 2018. He has the ability to make a cut and blow by defenders and should really breathe life into Indiana's running game on sweeps. In order to be the most complete back, he'll need to work on his impact in the passing game.
