Elite 2020 center Walker Kessler is wide open despite deep family ties to Georgia
Posted Apr 14, 2019
“I’ve been growing up with Georgia my whole life,” said 2020 5-star center Walker Kessler. “But that doesn’t mean I’m going there; it doesn’t mean I’m not going there either, I’m open to everyone at this point.” That’s good news for Duke, Michigan, Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Vanderbilt and Auburn, who all remain in hot pursuit of the 6-foot-11 center.
