00:00 If you followed Cal football for a while, you know that Cal has made pretty good use
00:04 of walk-ons since Justin Wilcox has become head coach.
00:09 They're usually Bay Area guys who haven't quite caught on with an FBS school, but not
00:15 always.
00:16 Sometimes they come from out of the area and Cal has had good success with walk-ons.
00:21 Two of their top receivers this past season, Trond Grizzell and Jack Endries, were both
00:26 walk-ons.
00:27 And Cal has players in the NFL who are walk-ons at Cal.
00:33 Patrick Laird and Ashton Davis, Davis of the Jets, who actually started a few games this
00:39 year and was a starter a year or two ago, and is still on the roster.
00:44 They were both walk-ons at Cal and became, I guess you would say, stars at Cal.
00:50 And Davis was drafted.
00:53 Laird made it as a free agent and played games as a rookie.
00:59 He's played less recently, but he was on the roster for a few games this season as well.
