Walton is rated a three-star prospect by 247Sports. The recruiting outlet also has him listed as the #163 tackle in the nation and the #246 overall recruit in the state of California for the 2025 class.

Save for tight end Austin Simmons, Walton is the only offensive line commit in the Cougars' 2025 class. He chose the Cougars over scholarship offers from Fresno State, Colorado State, Central Michigan, Nevada, and a host of FCS schools.
