Have we ever had so many walk-ons become captains before all at once?

When that headline popped up on my news feed, i seriously questioned the existence of captaincy in the dictionary....

Is it news that every huge stud grows up dreaming of playing for the Flagship Title Factory in Manhattan?

The same reason we believe white guys from little towns do.

Does a guy who was a walkon for 1 year have less heart than someone who is a walkon for 3 years?

Does heart translate to other areas? Do those that have to really study at math have more heart than those naturally good at it?

Not having a tucked in shirt allows for the heart to flow more fluidly

the walkons = more heart myth is very lol. if they would have worked harder to begin with they would have gotten a scholarship. scholarship players had heart before coaches forced them work hard.

Yeah, walkons that eventually make first team all-Big XII were probably lazy pieces of crap in high school. They obviously didn't just become super athletes out of nowhere

exactly. where was that in HS you lazy piece of trash? but whatever, I'm just glad we are able to find these kids and mold them into what they can be while other teams are focusing on the kids that worked their asses off and maxed their potential early.

Lazy high school player

steve dave · « **Reply #20 on:** July 28, 2014, 10:19:27 AM »

what if jordy hadn't had HCBS to force him to finally show some effort and not be a lazy loser? I bet he'd be selling cars for that car place he does that advertisements for. that would be ironic (not real irony obviously but like how idiots use the word ironic).

I mean good for us that top line NFL athlete Jordy Nelson was so lazy in high school that he walked on at KSU instead of taking a scholly to 'Bama.

The k-state program was built on the backs of lazy Kansas kids.
