Eric the Red Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Todd Peterson, a walk-on earns on a scholarship. They had a story about this on 10/11 last night. He turned down a Regents scholarship for a chance to walk-on to the team. Now he's earned himself an athletic scholarship by what he's done on the field. Great story and it shows the way for other in-state players. Quote Link to comment

BIGREDIOWAN Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Good story just goes to show you that determination can get you anything. Quote Link to comment
Husker IN Hawaii Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 I think that Nebraska has one of ... if not the best walk on program in the NCAA. Every kid growing up in Nebraska dreams about being a husker at night. Even if you don't get a scholarship, through hard work and determination you can still be a starter on the team. Todd proved that to everyone. Good Work! Quote Link to comment
Touchdown Tommie Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 I'm glad he was rewarded with the scholarship after all of his hard work. Quote Link to comment
gamecocks Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Do you guys think that there will be more scholarships rewarded to walk-ons this year. I don't know how many we could give out but I think that there are one or two more guys that are deserving of a walk-on scholarship. Quote Link to comment
