Quick Overview
Wisconsin recently added two centers to its roster who are expected to redshirt next season: 2018 signee Joe Hedstrom, who will begin as a walk-on before going on scholarship starting in the fall of 2019, and Owen Hamilton, a transfer from Northern Illinois. Those two big bodies will get a chance to learn from fifth-year senior Ethan Happ before competing for time the following season.
On the recruiting front, there's a big question surrounding Nobal Days, the in-state standout from Park High School in Racine. Are the Badgers still actively recruiting the three-star senior, or have they cooled a bit this off-season?
