The Wisconsin Badgers saw significant turnover this offseason when they hired head coach Luke Fickell from the Cincinnati Bearcats, both on their coaching staff and with 15 new transfers to the program.
Included in those 15 transfers was sixth-year senior Jason Maitre, who was the lone addition via the transfer portal to a revamped cornerback room that lost three key contributors from a season ago: Jay Shaw, Cedrick Dort Jr., and Justin Clark.
Maitre, who transferred from Boston College, was expected to serve as Wisconsin’s lead nickelback in 2023, which is the role he’s assumed early on in defensive coordinator Mike Tressel unique variation of looks.
