Men’s Basketball: Who to watch and what to expect this season

After more than 18 months of anticipation, Greg Gard and the new-look men’s squad aim to revitalize the Kohl Center — as well as an in-person Badger faithful — on Oct. 17, for the annual red white scrimmage.

Both of the University of Wisconsin’s hoops programs will make an appearance at the scrimmage Sunday. There will be team introductions, classic shooting and skills competitions, and interviews from both Gard and new women’s head coach, Marisa Moseley, as an added bonus to the live scrimmage from the men’s unit.

Coming off an 18-13 performance and a ninth-seed bid to The Big Dance during the 2020-21 campaign, UW faces an ultra-competitive group this season, with 20 interconference battles scheduled prior to the start of the Big Ten tournament on March 9.
