The transfer portal has been quite the party for the Wisconsin Badgers. So many new faces and many of them solid and even great additions. However, yesterday, the Badgers lost a key piece to the puzzle for next year in veteran offensive lineman Joe Brunner. He was poised to be a starting guard next season, and now he's out the door looking for another home.
However, it took all of one night for Luke Fickell to add another player to the offensive line. It's not a like-for-like exchange, as Brunner is a guard and Lucas Simmons is a tackle, but Fickell has shown he won't sit idly by while players leave.
