Wisconsin junior kicker Rafael Gaglianone will switch numbers this season to commemorate Nebraska punter Sam Foltz, who was killed in a car crash on Saturday night. Gaglianone will wear No. 27 in honor of his friend, as first reported by UWBadgers.com’s Andy Baggot on Monday.
Gaglianone posted a picture of himself and Foltz, along with an emotional message, on Instagram late Monday night.
From the day i met you i have looked up to you, not only for what you could do on the field but mostly for the person you were outside of it.
