<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-duke-landed-walker-iii-last-month">Duke landed Walker III last month</h2>



It was an ACC battle for Walker, with Duke coming out on top over Virginia on April 19. <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/coach/manny-diaz-133860/">Manny Diaz</a> and the Blue Devils made a stern push for the QB and came out on top for the No. 6 player in Indiana this cycle.



“I love their offensive scheme,” Walker previously told On3. “They push the ball down the field a lot and it’s a very quarterback friendly offense!



“I also love the history Coach Brewer has with quarterbacks he’s proven to help them excel and take the next big step in their game.”



As a junior Walker threw for 1,500 yards and 17 touchdowns and three interceptions. He rushed for nearly 400 more yards and four more scores. He ranks as the No. 771 overall prospect and No. 52 QB in the 2026 cycle, according to the <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/rankings/industry-player/football/2026/">On3 Industry Ranking</a>, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
