What roles do walk-on student-athletes play in your program? And, are you maximizing their potential?

On today's episode of the College Recruiting Weekly podcast, we talk to author and former walk-0n college athlete John Willkom. He wrote "Walk-On Warrior", the story of his experience as a Division I basketball walk-0n at Marquette University, and how he used that opportunity to build a college sports career and springboard himself into a successful professional life. His insights on the experience, and advice to college coaches, are incredibly valuable for any coach who will be coaching walk-on or non-scholarship athletes.
