Brian Butch and Charlie Wills will take over as the lead basketball analyst and select analyst, respectively, joining Matt Lepay, the Voice of the Badgers, in the booth.
Butch, a Big Ten champion on Wisconsin’s 2008 team, had enjoyed a ten-year professional career following his time with the Badgers before transitioning to an assistant role in 2017 with the Wisconsin Herd, the G-League affiliate of the Milwaukee Bucks.
