Apparently, Walker had just visited Lexington this past weekend and before he did that, he was in Ann Arbor during the week visiting Michigan. In fact, the Wolverines staff according to 247 Sports asked him to back for one more visit, but Walker did not.
Kentucky had one of the best defenses in the country last year. Walker chose Kentucky over Michigan, Alabama, Georgia, LSU, and Texas.
247Sports’ player evaluator Allen Trieu already has compared Walker to NFL star Javon Kinlaw of the San Francisco 49ers.
