    IU football gives scholarship to tight end Trey Walker

    Trey Walker didn’t play football in high school.

    But he’s now on a football scholarship in the Big Ten.

    IU once again found a fun way to break the news to a former walk-on he’s receiving a scholarship.

    Walker was a three-year letterwinner playing hockey at New Trier H.S. in Winnetka, Ill.  Movie character Happy Gilmore was a hockey player turned golfer, and that’s where IU turned for inspiration on Saturday inside Memorial Stadium.

    Listed at 6-foot-5 and 255 pounds, Walker joined the program in 2019.  He has appeared in seven games, including five in 2022.  He’s been a scout team player of the week six times, and was a Big Ten Distinguished Scholar in both 2021 and 2020.

    Walker is the third former walk-on tight end in the last year to be placed on scholarship, following James Bomba and Ryan Barnes.
