After losing 2023 leading tackler Aaron Casey, Indiana is hoping production from James Madison transfers Aiden Fisher and Jailin Walker translates to the Big Ten.
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – New faces are sprinkled throughout the 2024 Indiana football roster, and linebacker is no exception.
That leaves close to zero returning production at linebacker, so new head coach Curt Cignetti brought two starters with him from James Madison, Aiden Fisher and Jailin Walker, to fill the void. Walker brings more experience than Fisher, having started 20 games and playing in 32 over the last three seasons. He was second on the team with 61 total tackles in 2023 and earned All-Sun Belt honorable mentions each of the last three seasons. Walker was recently named to theby Bruce Feldman of The Athletic for his speed and explosiveness, reportedly running 22 miles per hour.
Although they’re at a new school, the transition shouldn’t be too drastic for Walker and Fisher due to their experience playing together under Haines and Cignetti.
