Some coaches work closely with admissions, but I've never heard that to be the case for perspective walk on. He's working with them for recruited players that are on the margins, and struggling to meet the minimums.

Bingo! Coaches put their necks out for studs who might not otherwise be accepted. A walk on isn’t expected to help a coach win games and keep his job. A successful walk on is a bonus.

A late blooming 90+ pitcher might be regarded a little higher. I’ve seen a handful of high school seniors blossom when all the baseball money was gone.
