Walker's recruitment was a crapshoot from the start, and the Buckeyes' coaching staff was well aware that holding on to the talented tailback was going to be a challenge. After a summer that included visits to Rutgers, Alabama, Arizona State and Auburn among others, the rumors of a potential decommitment began to swirl.
