Preferred Walkon

Seems like every walk-on has been called a "preferred" walk-on. Are there walk-ons we don't prefer? I wonder how they feel.

The neat thing about this, is that he could end up being a “two-fer”. Solid safety that plays qb at an ok level. Tony Veland type player

As far as walk-ons go, if any of you are feeling pretty salty and still have athletic eligibility...

I don't know how they feel, but I think they have to pass through a try-out.

I think preferred walk-ons are guaranteed a spot on the 105 man roster.

Looks like he had an offer from Navy, but we got him to walk on, paying out of state tuition. Heck of a get.

Covered in a couple of other threads last week that preferred does not mean guaranteed 105 practice squad position.

Welcome aboard! Good luck and GBR!

If he could fill Tony Velands shoes that would be yuge.

Possibility. His tape looks good. Opposite scenario though. Veland came in as a qb and switched to safety

I feel very confident that, given the opportunity, this group of 25-65 year olds will no doubt yield a very strong college football team capable of championship level play. Don't believe me? Just start a thread about the scholarship players bench and 40 times, and just watch how much more impressive our stats are than the guys, you know, that are actually playing.

Ok, thanks. I remembered seeing this at one time, guess it was fake news. So does preferred actually mean anything?

Preferred DOES NOT mean you are part of the 105- as a number have said is true. I know what it means from a couple of former players of mine who were preferred walk ons.
At NU- preferred means you didnt have to try out and are on the team

 

[Spartanhusker]

Who ARE you????? I must know.....

He supposedly had an offer from San Diego State too.

 

[Yolobomb]

I think he and Cam Jones are pretty good friends.

My two favorite teams Nebraska and Navy...I couldn't lose...Welcome Corbin!
