Walker Howard to Louisiana

[zephyr]

I think everybody here is eager for him to come here and compete for the Job. But if his dad wants him to be the guranteed starter to come here, he better head further down I-10 to Mcneese.

His dad has said absolutely nothing of the sort. People need to stop insinuating this.

They split up a while back is what my sources are saying.

Correct. Fairly recently but they're done.

QB room looks to remain strong. Nice stable of young backs. Future looking good!

QB room is going to lack a lot of experience

unless Simmons gets a lot of snaps shortly, it will be just about as experienced as ole miss

I'm glad Walker is coming to be a Cajun. It's good for the program and he may be a perfect fit. Time will and you can't have too many good players. Welcome to UL Walker (assuming he does indeed enroll in Jan 25.)

Why would his dad only have that view now, but didnt have it at the previous 2 stops

Ole Miss has been successful with transfers who have experience. The last two years, they had a back up from OK State that beat out Walker for the 2 spot as well. They will likely have guys come in and may very well have experience. Simmons is just that talented.

He wouldn't be entering the portal if he didn't have a place already picked out.

A lot of players enter without a guaranteed landing spot. If Des wants a transfer why not get one with game experience somewhere else? Why bring in a player with zero experience? At least Lunch and Beale will have knowledge of the system.

Maybe because there is no QB with experience that he believes is good enough that he can also get to come here. This isn't done in a vacuum. It's not just what Des wants, but what he can get.

Guys, we have a 5-Star/4-Star QB coming home in the Spring. This is a good thing. Let the chips fall.
