The Wisconsin Badgers had quite a bit of movement in the transfer portal this offseason. But, one position they purposefully elected not to touch was the running back position, despite Tawee Walker transferring and Jackson Acker moving to tight end.
Why? The Badgers plan to hand the reins over to their 2024 recruiting class, as former four-stars Darrion Dupree and Dilin Jones are both ready for bigger roles, with Cade Yacamelli and 2024 three-star Gideon Ituka in the fold as well.
Dupree and Jones have been projected to be the top backs for Wisconsin in 2025, and both got their fair share of first-team reps with the offense during spring ball.
