I guess this is something I've always wondered. Why do people Walk-On? Beyond the obvious players who played ball in high school, might have missed the train and are trying to earn a scholarship and play professionally. That makes sense. But these other players (just check the roster and click on some names you've never heard of) who seem to be excelling in school, have no potential for playing time, perhaps practice with the scout team and will certainly never see the NFL. Why do they do it? Especially considering the risk of serious injury? Simply for fun? And if thats the case, does every relatively athletic male student at OSU try out at one point?
