days of speculation, Anthony Walker made his announcement: NU's
celebrated linebacker will enter the 2017 draft. Walker will receive
his Northwestern degree this spring and will not return for a fifth
year in Evanston. Walker announced his decition on Twitter:
According to the Chicago Tribune,

NFL draft early: Godwin Igwebuike has also contacted the NFL draft
advisory board.
Coach Fitzgerald, also on Twitter, responded to Walker's announcement:
"We're so proud of Anthony, and thrilled for the Walker family. He's
cemented a spot as one of the best players in Northwestern football
history, will earn his degree this spring and has the opportunity to
pursue his dream. That's what Wildcats football is all about. I can't
wait to see him on Sundays proudly representing Northwestern and his
family!"
Best of luck to Anthony, and congratulations on a terrific legacy at Northwestern!
