The valedictorian of his class, he was awarded the first Dial Award as the 1979 national high school scholar-athlete of the year.Of course Walker was coveted by schools all around the country, but he eventually chose his local team, the Georgia Bulldogs. His arrival in Athens was momentous, as he produced one of the great freshman seasons in college football history, rushing for 1,616 yards and 15 touchdowns as the Bulldogs went 12-0 and won the national title. Walker tied for the best finish ever (at the time) by a freshman in the Heisman vote, placing third behind George Rogers and Hugh Green.He came back the following season and led Georgia to a 10-2 record while rushing for a career-best 1,891 yards and 18 scores.
