Charles Walker: From 3 Star Recruit to the Big 12's Best Defensive Lineman?

The hype coming into the season for redshirt sophomore defensive tackle Charles Walker (6-2/297) was incredibly high. We read the practice reports, heard the rumors, and waited in expectation for what we hoped would be a breakout season. What he have gotten through the first 2 games of the season is nothing short of remarkable. However, the Charles Walker we saw dominate the Vols offensive line was almost for not.

Rewind back to the class of 2013. Walker's biggest offer outside of the Sooners was Iowa State. The South Garland High School product started out as a two star recruit, before finally rising in the rankings to a 3 star.
