Indianapolis native. Midwesterner. Wonder if Lebron James made a phone call on the Buckeyes behalf?

Is he the little point guard who killed us at the end of the game? Was he a senior or must he sit out a year?

As a transfer, Walker will have to sit out this season and begin playing for the Buckeyes for the 2019-20 season.

It was amazing. We couldn’t stay in front of him and he got into the lane any time he wanted.

Yep, that's what fast PGs do. We need at least one. If we Don't get one this year and then target Mulcahy next year as a PG we will have some problems for at least 2 years with no real speed at PG.

Good pickup for Bucks...Walker is a quick player that plays solid defense....i am not sure what happened during the season at FSU but maybe felt closer to home was better. FSU had a lot of different ways to throw different defenses at teams which probably led to Walkers minutes being cut into by other options.

I'd love a quick PG like Walker, but would not be a player i see capturing more minutes as a starter....probably a 15-18 minute guy and more minutes in other matchups.

I disagree. I saw him quite a few times this year. Other than the Rutgers game, he seemed to be a liability on the floor.

Ryan Taylor a 6'4 SG from Evansville committed to NW-----had a bunch of good schools recruiting him.

This is the usual I woke up to pee and then depressed myself by opening up a Rutgers message board ..l

RU will have 2 out of 3 spots filled IMO...i think they will be fine....NW picking up the grad transfer from Evansville is a definite plus to offset the loss in the backcourt of McIntosh, Lindsay and Skelly....added to a nice incoming class and this helps.

RU will need to close the gap and get past a NW in standings and while RUs class and NW class are comparable. I don't see the huge gap in experience and talent...Adding a potential scorer like McConnell to Mathis Kiss etc and i can see RU right there with NW on paper.
