Well, all eyes now turn to Caleb Williams. There has long been a belief that close ties between Williams’ family and Engram could play a huge role in the former Oklahoma QB’s transfer decision.
Now, the Badgers have their new coach and everyone wants to know if Williams will follow. According to Jon McNamara, “Wisconsin is actually in a position to get this done.”

Obviously, it’s an incredibly fluid situation and things are likely to change before it’s all said and done.
However, right now, there are serious reasons for Badgers fans to be optimistic. I now feel more than ever that Williams might be suiting up this season in Madison.
Keep checking back for the latest updates as we have them. It’s clear something crazy is going on, and I can’t wait to see how it all shakes out.
