Another weekend, another recruit verbally commits to Indiana. The Hoosiers have landed a commitment from class of 2026 three-star wide receiver Walker Bryson.
The 6-foot, 180-pound wide receiver/defensive back is the 20th commitment for Curt Cignetti and Indiana football.
100% committed, All glory to God 🙏@IndianaFootball @CCignettiIU @CoachShanahan_ @247Sports @On3sports @ChadSimmons_ pic.twitter.com/vxLttTHVdK

Bryson chose Indiana over North Carolina, Wake Forest, and USF. He also had offers from UCF, Rutgers, Minnesota, Kansas State, Virginia Tech, Memphis, Pittsburgh, Oregon State, Kansas, Syracuse, Tennessee, West Virginia, Vanderbilt, Duke, West Virginia, Miami (FL), and many others.
In just 7 regular season games as a junior, Bryson had 10 total touchdowns, 400 kick return yards, 500 receiving yards on 40 catches, and 1,000 all-purpose yards. He is listed as an athlete and wide receiver and projects to play that position at the next level, Bryson will also likely be a return specialist at the college level with his 4.4 40-yard dash speed.
Walker Bryson from Rabun Gap (GA) Rabun Gap-Nacoochee H.S is the No. 485 overall prospect in the nation, the No. 32 ATH in the class and the 60th best player in the state of Georgia according to 247Sports Composite
In his highlight film on HUDL , he shows great vision and the ability to out run his opponents. He had several kick or punt returns for touchdowns and has the ball skills to find the ball and make a play on it on defense. His skill set reminds me a ton of former Georgia Bulldog and Los Angeles Chargers WR Ladd McConkey mixed with Rondale Moore (Minnesota Vikings).
