I mentioned to my wife during the game that Walker was up, cheering, warm-up off like he was ready if called upon. Culture.
I’ve noticed he’s very engaged most of the time and is very encouraging to his teammates. I’m wondering if the staff didn’t tell him they wanted to redshirt him which is why he’s only played in a couple blowouts.

That would make sense. He has more than enough physical talent. Maybe couldn't quite catch on to the new scheme. I guess we'll all know in a couple of months.

Great team effort. Hunter is the glue. Jones has really improved. We don’t have a bench, we have 3 starters and a 6 man rotation. “Bench” was awesome today. What’s going on with Jaydon Walker?

Lol give it up guys. Jaden Walker isn't playing because he's not good enough to crack this rotation. How is anyone still asking this question? It's Big 12 season. You don't play more than 8-9 guys.

He's not playing because he's not good enough right now. Not every kid is a selfish ass who pouts when they don't play.

You don’t redshirt in basketball anymore. Doubt Walker is here in 4 months

I don't know about that. Baylor has had a lot of success with it.

I just don't think there needs to be some excuse or conspiracy on why he doesn't play.

I’m guessing he is defensive challenged and can’t grasp the system well enough to see the court. He never was used even in the early non-conference cupcakes but we weren’t exactly blowing out those teams at the time either in order for the deep bench to get a little PT. It’s obvious that he is not an option at any point now that the Big 12 schedule has started.
