They never was an offer. There was never any contact over an extension. You can complain about that but that gets to their entire approach. Walker wasn't happy with the system. Price is more likely to be with his college background of putting up with it. That's the interesting thing about Price. Not only is he displaying the toughness of charbonnet and the explosiveness of Walker, he's also got a team first attitude
Think about it, in this age of the college portal he stuck with his team. He would have been a hot commodity if he had decided to transfer. I'm not calling walker selfish but it's really a different type of attitude. And I think it was significant in MMJSs decision to draft him. Price was a seahawk

Re: Poll: Walker vs Shaheed
I'm really happy with Price as the replacement, it's going to be interesting how that works out. I'm looking forward, not back
It's really pretty remarkable, his decision to stay with ND"Great player, the person's outstanding, the competitor," Schneider said. "He's a Seahawk."
Among the reasons the Seahawks were so high on Price was that while he had limited production as a pass catcher in college, they believed some of his skills as a runner compared favorably to the player he backed up at Notre Dame, Jeremiyah Love, who went third to the Arizona Cardinals. They also saw a high-character individual raised and inspired by a single mother, Jessica Butler, who was diagnosed with breast cancer when he was 12.
"Watching her go through that -- the chemotherapy, all that -- and still overcome that, I felt like I can overcome anything," Price said.
Macdonald noted the loyalty Price showed by staying in South Bend despite lucrative offers to start for other programs. That meant making significantly less money than he could have made elsewhere, but Price said he wanted to challenge himself to split reps "with the best player in college football ... and I showed that I can do it at the highest level."

LOVE Price but this has nothing to do with him. Could have Walker AND price right now instead of Shaheed.

Re: Poll: Walker vs Shaheed
Like I said after the first game, Price sharing reps with the practice squad guy was disturbing. This idea
you can plug any player into the system and the system will prevail could come back to bite JS in the ass.

Re: Poll: Walker vs Shaheed
How are you getting walker to return when he didn't want, how about charbonnet? If you did manage that why are you drafting Price?

Re: Poll: Walker vs Shaheed
It's not disturbing to me. Practice squad guys were instrumental in the NE win. I don't know what you mean by biting them. Their practice squad roster is important like ST is important. That depth is how you win a SB. Load management is an integral part of the system. They will manage Prices load like they managed Walkers last season. It got a healthy SB mvp for the last game of the season. And Price seems the kind of player that will buy unto the process
