Deone Walker Should be a Treat to Meet at Saturday’s Fan Fest​

Even if there were not a lot of other Kentucky football players and other UK athletes scheduled to be at the 15 Club Fan Fest Saturday, Ryan Maxwell thinks just getting to see UK star defensive lineman Deone Walker would be worth the $25 admission for adults or $10 for children.

“He is an amazing athlete and has demonstrated that on the field but he is a far better individual and person than he is football player and I want more people to know that,” said Ryan Maxwell, one of the founding fathers Athlete Advantage that oversees The 15 Club. “He is a character-filled young man.

“He could have gone anywhere in the country (via the transfer portal) but chose to stay here because of his relationship with the coaching staff and community. That speaks so much to the character of the young man.

“If you come to Fan Fest you are going to meet someone you are going to see play on Sundays (in the NFL) and find out just what a great young man he is.”...... https://www.yoursportsedge.com/2024...saturdays-fan-fest/vaughts-views/larryvaught/
