There's only a few days left before Wisconsin begins football workouts before the season begins. This means the news is no longer coming in at a trickle but a flood. Here's some of the best of the best in all that's happening with Wisconsin sports. There's plenty of football, a little basketball, and even volleyball. Let's get right into it.
Wisconsin at the Big Ten Media Days
There has been a lot of talk about the Big Ten Media Days, with Luke Fickell, Billy Edwards Jr., Jake Renfro, and Rico Hallman all in attendance and providing some fantastic content, whether it's Fickell's mention of breakout player Austin Brown. The appeal for Nyzier Fourqurean that Wisconsin submitted, or even how Billy Edwards Jr. describes Jeff Grimes' new offense. It's a ton of good links to read.
Kamari McGee turns pro and other hoops links
Kamari McGee is now the fifth Badger to sign a professional contract or be drafted. He will be playing for an international team in Bosnia, and you can read more about that here. There are also a few other nuggets, like notes on the new roster, posted. There's also some good stuff on the practices that the Badgers have had open to the media.
Volleyball awards and Kelly Sheffield's frustration
Finally, the Big Ten preseason awards have been announced. The All Big Ten team features three different Badgers. Wisconsin also has two players mentioned as potential players of the year. Those award mentions are in this article here. However, even more exciting is how frustrated Kelly Sheffield is about how none of his three All Big Ten players were unanimous. He found that amusing in a frustrating way.
These are the links from this week, but there is tons more content out there, so keep checking BadgerofHonor.com and any of your other favorite Wisconsin sites.
