Kentucky doesn’t kick off its football season for another 142 days but you can never start the Charles Walker Heisman campaign too early.

Today the university released a video of Walker’s journey from walk-on to scholarship player/star punt returner, all while pursuing a double major in finance and marketing. Walker talks about his daily routine of balancing football and schoolwork — which sounds brutal — and how he reacted when Mark Stoops granted him a surprise scholarship last season.

Check it out:

I assume the Walker billboards will start popping up around town some time this summer.

88 for Heisman.
