Fans got their first-look at the revamped backfield for the Wisconsin football team this Saturday at Camp Randall Stadium during the annual spring game.
It has been general consensus for months that Corey Clement would fill the massive void Melvin Gordon left at running back. But given Wisconsin’s history of productive depth at the position and no clear backup through spring ball, three backs fought for the spotlight throughout the scrimmage, while Clement remained on the sideline for the game’s entirety.
Redshirt freshman Taiwan Deal trotted out with the first-team offense to start the game and his first two runs went for a combined 15 yards.
