Gators taking walk-ons

[rawdog]

This is interesting... saw it posting on Gatorzone.

Gainesville, FL The Gator Men's Basketball Team is interested in possible walk-on candidates. If you are an interior player (forward or center only!), please call Darren Hertz in the basketball office at (352) 375- 4683 x4200.

Guess they're hard up for a backup big man.

Any update on this? I wonder if any walk-ons showed up?

Walk-ons are extremely necessary for a team. In fact one of the players on our past 2 National Championship teams was not only a former neighbor of mine but a walk-on. They take on the role as practice players which in turns provides strong minutes of playing time for the starters. This really isn't unusual because we have always had walkons.

Walkons just don't hardly see game action. But I agree, they are very important to practice.
