Welcome to the unofficial online tavern of the Wisconsin Badgers. Please seat yourself.
The Wisconsin Badgers are taking on the Milwaukee Panthers in their final non-conference game of the season, as well as their final game of 2025, on Tuesday. Last week, Wisconsin had an 88-61 win over the Central Michigan Chippewas, as their bench erupted for 44 points, with freshman Zach Kinziger making his season debut. Wisconsin […]
The Wisconsin Badgers are seeing another position shakeup as running backs coach Devon Spalding is heading to the Michigan State Spartans to work for head coach Pat Fitzgerald in the same role. Spalding, a Michigan native, had been Wisconsin’s running backs coach for the last three seasons after spending four seasons coaching running backs at […]
The Wisconsin Badgers men’s hockey team returns to kick off the second half of the season with a trip to Milwaukee for the Kwik Trip Holiday Face-Off.

The Wisconsin Badgers are getting busy in the transfer portal as they continue to evaluate targets ahead of the portal opening date on January 2nd. There have been a number of key transfers out of the program, which could lead to a huge transfer portal class. The team does have a bunch of needs, so […]
The Big Ten saw a coaching shakeup happen over the weekend, as the Michigan Wolverines filled their coaching vacancy by hiring former Utah Utes head coach Kyle Whittingham, the second-longest tenured head coach in college football. Whittingham, 65, had been with the Utes since 2002, but stepped down in a unique situation as Utah decided […]
The Wisconsin Badgers have seen an up-and-down start to their season. They haven’t gotten a noteworthy win yet, while losing games to BYU, TCU, Nebraska, and Villanova, with all coming by double digits. Coming into the season, they were a top-25 team, but have since dropped from the rankings and have yet to re-join the […]
The Wisconsin Badgers haven’t had the start to the season that they expected, going 8-4 without a high-profile win in their non-conference schedule. They’ve had some ugly losses (28 points to BYU, 30 points to Nebraska), and some unimpressive performances, as their new-look team is starting to come together. A key issue has been the […]
The Wisconsin Badgers had a nice 88-61 win over the Central Michigan Chippewas on Monday, getting back in the win column after back-to-back losses over the last two weeks. It was a good day offensively, as Wisconsin shot 53.7 percent from the field, hit 13 three-pointers, and had a whopping 25 assists on 29 made […]
The outgoing portal count is up to 16 for the Wisconsin Badgers, as tight end Tucker Ashcraft announced his intentions to enter the transfer portal on Friday. Ashcraft, a junior in 2025, was Wisconsin’s top returning tight end for next season as Lance Mason was out of eligibility. Mason is fighting for an extra year […]
The Wisconsin Badgers haven’t seen great success over the past few seasons, but there are still quite a few talented former players in the NFL. This year’s Pro Bowl selection revealed that, as four former Badgers made the Pro Bowl: Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker T.J. Watt, Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor, Philadelphia Eagles linebacker […]
The Wisconsin Badgers are heading towards an important offseason, where they’re expected to field a large transfer portal class after a lighter 2026 recruiting class. The Badgers have big needs at several positions on both sides of the ball, but the group where they might add the most is at wide receiver, where Wisconsin is […]
The Wisconsin Badgers have seen a ton of turnover over the years as they’ve reshaped the roster under head coach Luke Fickell. While the quarterback position has seen an upheaval, the Badgers have also completely transformed their wide receiver room, with many of the team’s initial group transferring out. Among those players was former wide […]
The Wisconsin Badgers have been busy in the transfer portal, both with incoming and outgoing players. Among the group was freshman setter Addy Horner, who had been a key player for the Badgers this season when star Charlie Fuerbringer was out with an injury. Horner elected to enter the transfer portal one day after Wisconsin’s […]
The Wisconsin Badgers have been seeing quite a few departures into the transfer portal so far, as they head into what will be the most crucial offseason of head coach Luke Fickell’s career. At the top of the agenda is a quarterback, who will likely start a domino effect on the rest of the additions […]
2025 has been a year of happiness, heartbreak, and everything in between for Wisconsin Badgers squads across the athletic spectrum, so I thought that dipping into a 17th-century Japanese form of expression called Haiku might perfectly capture the essence of the moment for the Wisconsin Athletic Department. Happy Holidays to all of the Badgers out there from Scary Alvarez. […]
The Wisconsin Badgers made another coaching move on Tuesday, hiring Robert Steeples as their new cornerbacks coach. Steeples slides into the role that Paul Haynes had occupied for the past three seasons. Haynes will now move into a new role as the secondary coach, adding another assistant to Wisconsin’s staff. “Bringing Robert Steeples to Wisconsin […]
In a bit of a surprise, Wisconsin Badgers freshman guard Zach Kinziger made his season debut on Monday, playing 13 minutes and scoring six points after sitting out the team’s first 10 games. Kinziger, a four-star recruit in the Class of 2025 from De Pere, Wisconsin, was a coveted prospect coming out of high school. […]
The blows keep coming for the Wisconsin Badgers, as starting running back Dilin Jones is entering the transfer portal, according to On3’s Hayes Fawcett. Jones, a redshirt freshman in 2025, starred during the offseason for Wisconsin, taking over the starting running back role in an open competition with Darrion Dupree and Cade Yacamelli. However, he […]
The Wisconsin Badgers got back on the winning track with an 88-61 win over Central Michigan on Monday night. Wisconsin took a 40-28 lead into halftime, but it was far from a stellar first-half performance. The Badgers allowed the Chippewas to hang around thanks to inconsistent defense, as Wisconsin players failed to communicate with one […]
The Wisconsin Badgers moved quickly in the transfer portal, landing UC Santa Barbara outside hitter Eva Travis after losing starter Una Vajagic to the transfer portal on Monday.

In a bit of a shocker, the Wisconsin Badgers are losing starting outside hitter Una Vajagic to the transfer portal. Vajagic, a redshirt sophomore in 2025, stepped into a bigger role after the team lost incoming transfer Grace Lopez to a season-ending injury in the offseason. A Serbian native, Vajagic had redshirted the 2024 season […]
The Wisconsin Badgers pulled off an 88-61 win over the Central Michigan Chippewas on Monday, getting back on track with a nice win, despite missing star John Blackwell, who was questionable with an injury and did not play.
