Column: Wisconsin football has no choice but to take a QB in the transfer portal

I don’t care if Carter Smith leads Wisconsin football to two stunning wins to close out the season, looking like the second coming of 2011 Russell Wilson in the process by shredding the Illini and Gopher defenses with both his arm and his legs.

The Badgers still need to land a transfer portal quarterback this winter. Maybe two.

There’s been a lot of discourse recently about what Wisconsin should do at quarterback moving forward. And rightfully so: the Badgers are down to their fourth-string gunslinger, a true freshman who, for the majority of the season, was running with the scout team.
