This is great news for Greg Gard and the rest of the squad. We need college basketball to happen, and I need the Badgers playing like I need air in my lungs.
After Wisconsin’s football season was ripped away from me, I need basketball more than ever. We were supposed to make a national title run before coronavirus ended March Madness.
Now, it sounds like the Badgers are gearing up to play basketball and scheduled and welcome the Volunteers to Madison.
After the spanking we gave them on the road last season, I can’t wait to see what we do to them in Madison. I can only imagine that it’ll be worse.
I’m so amped for his basketball season, and I can’t wait to see what we get out of my Badgers.
