DeShawn Walker, Bellevue West's Top RB, Weighs Transfer Options
Bellevue West Thunderbirds running back DeShawn Walker is considering a transfer from the Nebraska school, citing the coaching change that has left the program in flux. Walker, a senior, is one of the state's top running backs and his departure would leave a significant void in Bellevue West's backfield. With only a handful of top-tier running backs in the state, Walker's loss would be a significant blow to the Thunderbirds' chances of competing in Class A. Reports indicate that Walker is drawing interest from top programs in neighboring states, including Iowa and Kansas, as well as several schools from the Missouri Valley Conference. The Thunderbirds will need to move quickly to retain Walker's services or find a suitable replacement before the start of the season.
