Tulsa has had some walk on players who ended up making significant contributions to the game and I was wondering if we could start a list of them. I know about Trey Watts but who else started as a walk on and made their way to a starting position?

I recall that DeGar got hurt on the 1st or 2nd offensive play on a hit very nearly out of bounds & screwed up his knee. Wasn't the score something like 7-6 TU?Also Tad Jones (Oologah grad and former state rep) quarterbacked virtually the entire game of Tulsa's win at Mizzou in 1994 after Troy DeGar hurt his knee early in the game. The game where Dave Rader did the chicken dance after the Mizzou kicker missed a field goal at the end of the game.

DeGar tore his ACL on that play. That old turf at Faurot Field was atrocious and you had teams tell Mizzou they wouldn't play there again no matter how much money was guaranteed because the risk of injury was too great.I recall that DeGar got hurt on the 1st or 2nd offensive play on a hit very nearly out of bounds & screwed up his knee.
