He has a coach/family friend/ someone, i dont know the exact relationship, that has connections to ASU. His interest is much more than just taking a visit to hang out with hot girls. I still think the SEC schools are bigger contenders with Michigan being #1 of course

With Falcon supposedly out, we're just filling (upgrading) that spot. So it really don't change much and shouldn't impact other recruits.

I just watched his tape...his feet and vision are something we haven't at at RB in forever. I still think we'll need a complimentary bruiser and we have some options at RB in this class which is awesome.

We've recruited great balance at RB in terms of skill set.

He's NOT Denard...however, he's light on his feet like Denard was. Expect some gamebreaking plays and some of those crowd "awwwwwww" moments where he makes a hop cut and gets tripped up by the last flying arm tackle - similar to Denard. That's all I'm saying.

I like his balance and then if we don't have the line we expect and still need to churn out the tough yards, ala De'Veon, we've recruited a couple of those types as well.

REALLY want to see Walker and Gary in this class. Start that pipeline to NJ --- thanks Jim Delany! That NYC media market is paying off HUGE!

I can't imagine a world in which Harbaugh and Drevno don't produce the line we're expecting.  They'll open up holes and Walker would be an excellent back to fill them.  The limited plays we've seen him in have me very excited about Higdon as well.  He has a lot more burst than I thought.

It's pretty easy to find bruisers.  Hard to find the change of pace vision and quickness back.  He is not a burner but on some stories I read tonight they compare him favorably with Barkley of PSU who came in and immediately is contributing (won the job) as a true freshman.
