I'd argue more talent is missed because kids sat the bench at a top P5 school when they would have had a shot of showing their talent at another school. Does it realy count if you were part of the Bama national championship team....as a practice player?

I’m not talking about the extreme ends of the spectrum but rather the majority/middle ground.

I should have been clearer, I only object to his last name having much to do about.

I've talk to a multiple recruiter at STM campus, not a one of them ever brought up his dad.

Bro, you have no clue. This kid has the chance of being an SEC QB, regardless of his last name. The Cajuns trying to get him before he blows up.

#1 NFL APY when last game played: Brian Mitchell

The NFL was pretty good at finding All Purpose Yardage guys back then.

I know the kid is good. I personally know a kid that works with walker and Jake on a pretty regular basis and he tells me how good he is. I know walker will have many offers before it's all said and done. There are several freshman out there that project to be great players in the future why aren't we offering all them with 0 varsity starts? See my original statement and you'll get your answer. It’s all in the name recognition. I am not saying there is anything wrong with and the kid shouldn’t be offered. Just saying it is what it is.

Name a few freshman (in Acadiana) that project as high as Walker does. Just a couple would be sufficient.

Confucius say: Louisiana State University is where QBs go to die.

I agree with you 100% on the kids talent and projection of where he might end up so if I have know clue that makes 2 of us. I am just saying there are several current freshman out there that project to be top P5 type talents. Why haven’t they offered more of them? Why just offer one? Offer them all before they “blow up”.
