Erik Walker brings a downhill, physical linebacker pedigree to Saint Francis U
Erik Walker is a former Red Flash linebacker turned coach, which gives him real built-in credibility with the position group and the program. In his playing days, his best season came in 2015, when he posted 35 tackles and four sacks, and his 2015 performance against Sacred Heart included a career-high eight tackles, two for loss, and a sack. That profile points to a violent, inside-outside presence with a knack for disrupting plays in the backfield. If you want a linebacker coach who understands Saint Francis from the inside and values toughness, leverage, and production, Walker is a strong fit.
