Catholic High Bears CB Austin Walker Weighs Transfer Portal Option
Junior cornerback Austin Walker is reportedly considering a transfer from Catholic High Bears in Baton Rouge, citing an academic opportunity. Walker's decision could have significant implications for the 5A program, which relies heavily on his shutdown skills in the secondary. With a scarcity of top-tier cornerbacks in the state, losing Walker could put the Bears at a disadvantage in the upcoming season. According to sources, Walker has received interest from programs in Texas, including top 6A powers, and also from Mississippi schools, which are known for their strong defensive backfields. Walker's recruitment is still in its early stages, and it remains to be seen whether he will ultimately choose to leave Catholic High Bears for a new academic and athletic opportunity.
