Weegle777 78 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Sounds like a good size for a Mike backer. Is he quick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LKEEL75 2,566 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 There are other stories out there of people who succeeded as a walk-on but here is a local (hsv area) story that I have followed because of his dad being on radio during 'The Drive' home.

AU-24 3,063 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I copied and pasted a comment from an AUC poster and hoke's reply. Which seemed to substantiate the rumor. It got zapped here in the Williams thread. Awesome news, congrats to your roommate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerbrotha12 2,362 Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 Did he have any offers out of HS? Jacob didn't have any official offers but had some small schools show a lot of interest in him. I think one school he talked to a lot was Samford, he just decided he wanted to go to Auburn and had to take a Juco route. This is his first semester at Auburn and he's loving every minute of it!

Auburn06 76 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Walk on tryouts took place last week and I am so happy to say that my roommate, whom I have known since high school, will be playing football for the University we love, the Auburn Tigers. Jacob O'Kelley-Auburn High School graduate, sophomore in hours currently in first semester at Auburn, but has not played any college ball yet. Not huge news for everyone on this board, just excited for one of my best friends! Wow, congratulations to him!! I would have loved to play football(never played at any level) but I am too short lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
