Louisville Football: Seven Former Walk-On’s Earn Scholarships

According to Steve Jones of the Courier-Journal, seven former walk-on’s for the Louisville football program have earned scholarships.

WR, Dontez Byrd, Louisville KY

FB, Griffin Uhl, Henryville IN

LS, Colin Holba, Louisville KY

RB, Darius Skinner, Winchester KY

RB, Malin Jones, Naperville IN

DL Aaron Ahner Okinawa, Japan

OL, Toriano Roundtree, Gainesville FL

Of the seven players, I’d say Byrd, Uhl and Jones are the most notable names.

Byrd was a star at Ballard High School and played in 12 games in 2014, despite not being on scholarship.
