Walker was the premier wide receiver for the Wildcat football team in the early ’70s. In his junior and senior seasons, he was named to the All-Southern Conference first team (the last Wildcat to do so) while leading Davidson in receiving both years. Six times in his career, Walker amassed at least 100 yards in a game as a junior, including 194 yards on 10 catches with two touchdowns in a 51-35 victory over Furman. He was fifth nationally in receptions in 1972, helping him earn honorable mention All-America honors from both the Associated Press and United Press International.
In Walker’s junior campaign, he hauled in a team-best 62 passes for 1,031 yards to become the second of only two receivers ever at Davidson to accumulate more than 1,000 yards receiving in one season. As a senior, Walker caught 52 more passes for 606 yards, putting his career totals at 130 catches for 1,940 yards. Both marks rank fifth all-time in the Davidson record books.
