Are there limits on the number of walkons? 

no.  limit of 15 players for travel, but you can have as many as you want in the program.

thought i read Doc has a crap ton of walk-ons, for whatever reason.
Sometimes I think of the Book of Job and how God likes to really eff with people.

Looking at ours and ku's roster, I assumed the total limit was 16.  If there's no limit, is there no correlation between Kruger and 95?  It wouldn't be that Frank doesn't want non-travelers in the program becasue we'll still be one over.  :dunno:

i wouldn't think there's any connection.  maybe kruger was told he wouldn't be likely to travel and got offended and quit.  but i doubt it.


we've had a walkon quit each of the last couple years, no?  the one guy from atchison or somewhere up there, and the topekan.  it's a lot of work for not a lot of reward.

Perhaps Jarrod thinks his time could be better spent elsewhere.  If so, it's an extremely mature decision for some one his age.

Wait, does this mean that Jarrod will be able to pursue other opportunities that he had originally planned on pursuing?!  :surprised:

Huggins year we had 4 walk-ons and 17 total players.  Don't think the rules have changed since then.   :dunno:

I feel like a terrible EMAW right now, but I am not 100% familiar with Devon's story.  I know he committed in 2008 for the 2009 class.  "Things didn't work out", yada yada.  Does anyone have the details?  I'd love to know exactly how this guy went from NY to FL to KS.

Didn't qualify out of high school, so he went to a FL juco.  Signed with us and transferred to Cloud.  (Didn't play at Cloud.). Didn't qualify again, then he finally qualified after we had all but given up on him ever playing here.  Oh, and 95!

I'm with you. Which is also why I'm not going to get excited about this "Devon Peterson" kid.  :jerk:
