Wisconsin Badgers football lands another '23 commit with in-state running back Nate White jumping onboard ! We talk about his game, how he compares to Jaquez Keyes, the potential move from conference divisions and do some Q&A from our Youtube comments.
We start the show with in-state 2023 football verbal commit Nate White, Justin Julka joins the show and we talk about White's game. How his explosive ability gives him a high ceiling and how his game compares to fellow RB commit Jaquez Keyes. Will the Wisconsin offense be more able to get the explosive playmaker the ball in space ?
Next we talk about the potential news -- which seems likely -- that the Big Ten conference will do away with divisions within the next couple years. Why I've changed my mind on this topic and how it could benefit Wisconsin. Justin argues that not much will actually change and I bring up the narrative about the Big Ten West does more harm than good. We also talk about which protected rivalries we would like Wisconsin to have.
Finally on Locked on Badgers we talk through some questions and comments from the Youtube channel from long-time listeners. We talk about Graham Mertz and if his struggles are more physical or mental, we talk about the Nebraska fan-base and their Wisconsin jealously and we dive into the potential names at ILB coach -- and if a guy like Jack Cichy would make sense in that role.
