Wisconsin had one of the program's best offenses in 2023-24 but was let down by a fledging defense. The Badgers brought the pressure after a slow start Monday, showing a glimpse of how good they can be if they can sustain it for 40 minutes
That our new feeder schools are now teams like Kent St, Illinois St, and Alabama St (not actually those schools, but you get the point). It used to be Newport News, Bridgeport, different Florida schools. Sad!
Wisconsin experienced a 40-point swing in its season opener, picking up its defensive pressure and attacking the rim to dig itself out of a 16-point hole to earn a comfortable win. My takeaways
So I for one was very excited to hear when Brady Collins came to the Badgers. Reading stats on the player speed improvement and being better conditioned for the 4th quarter. Players are excited about the new workouts and the vibe is electric you read. However, I have yet to see this transition to field. Don’t see the wide receivers seperating consistently, backs don’t look to much faster, neither the DL or OL seemed to have shown a stepped improvement. Perhaps it needs more time but I can’t say I have seen an impact. Even Wohlers doesn’t seem to shown me a significant performance impact.
