Wisconsin Badgers 2024 transfer portal tracker

Transfer portal activity is buzzing both in Madison, Wisconsin and across the country. Luke Fickell and other coaches across the sport are hot on the recruiting trail as they look to both lock up the 2024 high school class and also improve the team in the portal entering next season.
