It’s been some kind of offseason for Wisconsin athletics.
The Wisconsin Badgers have had quite the offseason across multiple sports, as things start to settle down ahead of the summer.
For head coach Greg Gard’s squad, the Badgers have overhauled a senior-filled roster, adding four players from the transfer portal and getting another from overseas. And they may not be done just yet.
After a disappointing end to the season in the Round of 32, Wisconsin has found a way to effectively use its NIL resources to rebuild its roster, dealing with 10 departures from the program and quickly identifying fits for its 2025-26 team.
On the football front, spring ball has come and gone, as Wisconsin debuted its new-look offense and defense. The offense has taken a much different turn under new coordinator Jeff Grimes and quarterback Billy Edwards, while the defensive scheme has changed under Mike Tressel to become better against the run.
Now, it’s on to recruiting, as the Badgers have a loaded month ahead of them, looking to nail down their 2026 class. Currently, they have six commitments and are expected to bring a plethora of priority recruits on campus for official visits.
Wisconsin’s volleyball team has reloaded ahead of the 2025 season, and its new-look group debuted during the two spring scrimmages. Kelly Sheffield’s squad may not be done yet, however, as Wisconsin could look for another addition or two in the spring transfer portal.
