Generally speaking, WR isn't a position that walk-ons get a lot of playing time. WR requires a lot of speed and athleticism and the guys who have that tend to get scholarship offers. The Hoos currently have 11 WRs on the roster, which includes 4 walk-ons and 1 converted TE. In addition, there are 3 WRs in the 2016 recruiting class.
That doesn't leave a whole lot of opportunity for a guy like Ross Gardner. Fellow walk-on WR Ryan Santoro saw some action this past season, and even had a big 34 yard reception against Notre Dame.
