Monday Headlines: Deone Walker becoming UK’s Jordan Davis?

If you’ve done any research on Deone Walker, you’ve likely noticed he’s exceptionally large in stature.

The true freshman stands 6-foot-6 and weighs in at 330 pounds. Walker was a 4-star recruit out of Detroit (MI), and the Kentucky football staff was sure glad to receive his commitment late in 2021.

Everyone assumed he would be a productive player for the Wildcats at some point in his college career, but Walker is already making an impact through his first two games.

Kentucky’s Vince Marrow knows the talent Walker possesses and recently compared him to one of the more physically imposing college football players we’ve seen in quite some time.
