INDIANAPOLIS — Kenneth Walker III wasn’t shy about setting goals a year ago. A two-year backup running back at Wake Forest, the transfer junior at Michigan State wrote down three things: Heisman Trophy, Doak Walker Award, All-American.
Less than 12 months later, he’d crossed two of those off his to-do list. The third was out of his control, left in the unreliable hands of Heisman voters.
But now, as Walker gets ready to take the next step in his football career this week at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, he says he has a new list.
