Spartans React: Expectations high for Kenneth Walker III in the NFL

In his one season in East Lansing, Kenneth Walker III made as big of an impression as anyone in recent Michigan State program history. That success has turned into a budding NFL career after the running back was selected in the second round by the Seattle Seahawks.

Fans both of the college game and the NFL were asked about Walker as he enters his rookie season. According to those SB Nation Reacts surveys, Walker will be a household name by this time next year. When college fans were asked who they expect to win NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, nearly a quarter of fans picked Walker.
