Let's look at Penn State. They are just coming off sanctions and I would consider them on Nebraska's level.
Here is their depth chart. (https://bwi.rivals.com/cdepthtext.asp) And here is a list of their walk-ons on their depth chart.
Albert Hall - 3rd string OG - walk-on
Carl Nassib - 1st string DE - walk-on
Von Walker - 2st string LB - walk-on
Here is Nebraska's (https://bwi.rivals.com/cdepthtext.asp?Year=2013&Team=NEBRASKA).
Fyfe - 2nd String QB
Reilly - 1st string WR
Hovey - 2nd String WR
Trey Foster - 2nd String TE (they have him listed as 1st, but he is a backup to Carter).
Utter - 1st string OG
Dzuris - 2nd String DE
Gangwish - 1st String DE (not listed due to injury)
Brad Simpson - 3rd string LB
Chris Weber - 2nd string LB
Janovich - 1st string FB
We have 3 times the walk-ons in our depth chart than Penn State, who just came off sanctions. We do have a better walk-on program, but come on. Bo has pretty well put us on sanctions with his recruiting effort.
NOTE: I chose Penn State arbitrarily and used them because they are in our conference, they just came off sanctions and they are a similar program with prestige, history and current situation.
