Walker on why he chose Colorado<\/p>\n

\u201cI saw the culture that they were trying to build and actually seeing it first hand made me feel good about what they are trying to do in the future. Especially being from Colorado and also being a legacy buff, I\u2019ve seen the ups and downs of the program. I believe this is a shift.<\/p>\n

He currently has an NIL Valuation of $48K. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry\u2019s leading index that sets high school and college athletes\u2019 projected annual value (PAV). The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete\u2019s value at a certain moment in time.<\/p>\n

Out of high school, Walker was ranked as a three-star recruit in the 2021 class.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Transfer portal background information<\/h2>\n

The NCAA Transfer Portal, which covers every NCAA sport at the Division I, II and III levels, is a private database with names of student-athletes who wish to transfer. It is not accessible to the public.<\/p>\n

The process of entering the portal is done through a school\u2019s compliance office. Once a player provides written notification of an intent to transfer, the office enters the player\u2019s name in the database and everything is off and running. The compliance office has 48 hours to comply with the player\u2019s request and that request cannot be refused.<\/p>\n

Once a player\u2019s name shows up in the portal, other schools can contact the player. Players can change their minds at any point and withdraw from the portal. However, once a player enters the portal, the current scholarship no longer has to be honored. In other words, if a player enters the portal but decides to stay, the school is not obligated to provide a scholarship anymore.<\/p>\n

The database is a normal database, sortable by a variety of topics, including (of course) sport and name. A player\u2019s individual entry includes basic details such as contact info, whether the player was on scholarship and whether the player is transferring as a graduate student.<\/p>\n

A player can ask that a \u201cdo not contact\u201d tag be placed on the report. In those instances, the players don\u2019t want to be contacted by schools unless they\u2019ve initiated the communication.<\/p>\n
