Walker will be a redshirt senior in 2018. He was part of a productive tandem of defensive tackles, along with Tim Settle. Walker was Virginia Tech’s seventh-leading tackler with 41 stops (19 solo, 22 assisted), and he tied with Settle for second on the defense with 12.5 tackles for loss (TFL). Walker was also second with 4.5 sacks and 6 QB hurries.
Attack boy Ricky! You are so right. The NFL is not going anywhere. Enjoy your time at Tech with your close friends and get that degree! You’ll value your decision later in life. Your college years are very special. Take it all in, have fun and enjoy what makes VT a special place in all our hearts.
Supposed to have been Atta boy.
thanks for getting a degree at our great school.
A wise decision.
