Why are so many walk-on’s little white dudes with fancy names? What’s the angle? Do their grades count towards team gpa? I don’t understand the walk-on program.  

They need to be able to pay their tuition, have the grades to get into UT by themselves, and not have any big scholarship offers that they'd take instead of a PWO slot.

Statistically, that skews your pool of applicants to a specific type.

I'm guessing this is the thread for this:

Kohls Analysis - Ranked #54

Quote

Malphurs continues to put up impressive performances at each camp he attends, his most recent during the 2022 Kohl's National Scholarship Camp. He scored 24 points during the field goal charting sessions, and had an impressive big ball during kickoff of 77 yards with a hang time of 3.58 seconds. Malphurs is well on his way to making a big splash at the next level if he can keep up with these sorts of performances. Malphurs is an impressive overall athlete. Long and slender with explosive hips. He had arguably one of the best HS seasons in the country last season by going 18-20 with a long of 57. He competed well at a Kohl's ranking event in January of 2022. He can be dominant with his kickoffs, and he was able to chart several 65+ yard balls including a big ball of 67 yards with 3.87 seconds of hang time. The trajectory he creates is also towards the top of his class nationally and if can consistency lock his leg out through ball/foot contact He can become one of the top field goal kickers in the 2023 Class.

PWO WR from Alamo Heights.  Not a very good FB district this past year, so TD numbers might be skewed...

Neighborhood kid can fly and has great hands. Good pickup if he takes it. Less competitive district sure, but you still have to make plays when given the opportunity. Worthy anyone??

We are fucking dominating the PWO market from Alamo Heights and Westlake. Somebody better put Highland Park on notice.

Heights has a legit stud named Mike Terry that will be a junior next year, already has a bunch of FBS offers. He’s more… athletic than the usual AH kid, plays QB & WR. SA in general has a lot of 2025 stars.

At 6’4” 230 wtf is he not playing baseball.  And if he’s going to play football why is he not a DE.  All his highlights are at OT.

Aaron Judge & Giancarlo Stanton dwarf him. He could totally play baseball at that size.
