SMU makes Top 5 for 4-star DB Ka'Davion Dotson-Walker
2024 Duncanville (Tex.) four-star safety Ka’Davion Dotson-Walker included SMU in his Top 5 schools, he announced over the weekend. Oklahoma State, LSU, TCU and Texas also made the cut.
He’s locked in a pair of summer official visits, he told On3 earlier this month. Oklahoma State will host him June 9-11 before in-state SMU hosts him June 22-24. LSU, Texas, and TCU are among the programs also looking at visits with the highly-touted prospect.
Cornerbacks coach Rickey Hunley is building a strong relationship with him. SMU is prioritizing many of Dallas’ best to join the program, both out of high school and from the transfer portal.
“They’re building a good program at SMU. They’re building the facility,” Dotson-Walker said. “Everything. I feel like they’re building the city up with SMU. They’re making it a Dallas program.”
