For One Gator Walk-on, Hard Work Pays Off

Case Harrison joined the Florida football team in 2013 as a walk-on and is one of six walk-on candidates to score an athletic scholarship this year.

WUFT's Nikko Tan profiles Harrison, who grew up a lifelong fan of the Gators and who sold drinks in the stands of Ben Hill Griffin Stadium his senior year at Gainesville High School.

Harrison scored his first touchdown in the exhibition game earlier this year. "It was probably one of the happiest moments I've ever been in my life," he said.
