After starting cornerback Nyzir Fourqurean was deemed ineligible to play, head coach Luke Fickell and the Badgers had to quickly turn their attention to finding his replacement. And while some are still holding out hope that Fourqurean can play in 2025, one defensive back has risen to the top of the list of names that could fill in.

Omillio Agard, the redshirt freshman, has been a constant playmaker for Wisconsin throughout their fall camp. The 5-foot-11 corner has been causing havoc for the Badger offense for the past two weeks, including a two interception day this morning.
