Bill Walker Finds A Home

The prep star may be matriculating sooner than we thought…

by Lang Whitaker

He may not be eligible to play high school hoops this season, but the high-flying Bill Walker has a home after he graduates: Kansas State, which today announced that they have admitted Bill Walker. The story is sort of hazy, but it sounds as though he could enroll right away. Maybe the Bob Huggins era can begin sooner rather than later. Break out the windbreakers!

Who is Bill Walker? Watch this…

Looks like the next Ishmail Muhammed to me. Gotta love the part at the end about Bob F-ing Huggins. The little big apple should be crunk.

If they start off hot next season, can we start referring to KSU as “Kay Slay”?

This guy right here is a top five pick in the draft in my opinion. He has everything. He reminds me of a young vince carter(and yes i have seen footage of carter in high school. actually, a great deal of footage.) Bill Walker is going to kill with MikeBeaz if he doesn’t leave in one semster. play wit it.

There’s this clip of Vince taking on Paul Pierce in the McDonald’s All-American dunkoff..it was back in 95 or something..but dude had hops..and I’m from Toronto..so you know I ain’t sayin this cuz I have to.

Cheryl says:
okay, let me inject a little caution here. yeah dude can dunk, but what else can he do? his competition is obviously high school kids. Being tall and able to dunk doesn’t make him a good basketball player. my hope is that he’ll get some fundamentals in college and become a more well rounded player.

KSU had some shady moves in the past. JR Rider, signed by Kansas State, was also ineligible to play his Senior year in high school.

Boing Dynasty says:
Really? , cause i would rather just watch him dunk.

hey what was that song in the back ground that was awesome???!!!!

oliver says:
The nxt shaq? he’s 6′6!
Also DP your opinion stinks
If my mother was 6′6 she could dunk too so im not impressed- at all- get a jump shot-
Also nice name neville bartos- isn’t chopper lookin for ya?

Bill will not be eligible until 08 draft. 1.5 years at KSU minimum. He has it all not just dunking.

Aaron says:
Bill is a freak athlete that physcially dominates the game. He brings a lot of the intangibles to the game that Josh Smith did except Bill plays mean. He reminds me a lot of Amare in how he tries to intimidate people. He already had a knee surgery a couple years ago which could limit him but he has a lot of potential.

Just wanted to give “debo” size congratulations to Tracy Little out of Grand Rapids Michigan for being named as the head “mens” basketball coach for the 9th graders at Comstock Park Highschool, yes thats right, a woman coaching the men. Nobody deserves it more than she does !!

I washed Bill tear down a rim his junior yr. when playing in Huntington Wva. against a Lexington team and after being up by 40 late in the 3rd qtr. they had to call the game. I have seen him do a 360 on a 7 ft. guy going to UNC so he’s not just another 6′6 guy every magazine I have read says he’s the most intimidating guy in HS and not to mention ranked 7 in the nation for a reason (not just dunking.

Is it just me me or did the rest of you not see him take one shot

Oct.30 at 10:34 pm

kingstuffs says:

the song in the background is by the rap group “GangStarr”. The rapper is “Guru” . DJ Premier is the producer of the track. I’m not sure on the name of the song.

With his on court demeanor (nasty) Mr. Walker could help some pro teams right now. But as long as Huggs uses him properly, Dec 16th should be entertaining.

why would oj mayo go to ksu when the guy who took his spot signed with them also goes there?

ballafolife says:
bill walker as good as he is is going to kansas state….there is a part of the story missing here

Yezsyr says:
Walker is actually elegable for the 2007 draft because he was declared inelegable for his final year in high school.
That would make him one year removed from him class, and 19.
Walker can do more than dunk. He skies, and has tremendous power to go along with his hoops. He has strength, defense, and is an intense competitor with a drive to get better. HIs upside is off the charts and could be a premer wing in the NBA.

TrippleX says:
this guy can do it all. u just havent seen him shoot cause this clip just shows his athleticism… idiots if any of you know high school ball, youl know how good this kid is. he is a lottery pick in any draft, or should i say high lottery pick.

BETCATS says:

Dec.6 at 4:34 am

terrell says:
I seen O.J. Mayo on the news since he was in the 8th grade working out on some tv special this guy is going to be great…Bill Walker will be good to, he can dunk pretty good…So long he keep on working hard…But these guys should accept JESUS as thier Lord & Savior ,more than anything…If they have not already…Be cool…In Jesus name….

balla127 says:
Have you guys seen this cat play for K-state (pun intended)? I think it was USC or somebody they were playing that he went on a 9-0 run by himself to take the lead back in that game. I hope he sticks around for next year’s rematch when OJ will be playing for USC.
