Prior to transferring to Wisconsin, quarterback Billy Edwards Jr. spent plenty of time playing for Mike Locksley at Maryland. From 2022 to 2024, Locksley was Edwards' head coach. While he initially played for Wake Forest in 2021, Edwards really earned a name for himself as a gunslinging college passer last year for the Terrapins. Win or lose, Locksley loves to have his quarterbacks throw the ball.
