I'm kinda out of the loop with the recruiting, but as far as they go, I gots a few questions...
What position will Austin Ramesh play? He's listed as an ATH by 247sports at 6'2'' 225. Played RB/WR/LB in HS.
Same question for TJ Watt.
Same question for Marcus Ball, he's not committed yet, but we're supposed to be the favorite there.
And holy crap! Another 4* QB in 2014?!
Despite being pretty bad this season, the future of UW football does look bright...especially if we move to a 3-4 where I think Alec James would be a monster (he's the one guy I've actually seen play). _________________

When was the last season Wisconsin was this bad? I mean it's embarrassing how they're struggling at home against a mediocre Illinois team that has already been blown out 3 times this year. _________________

Nice too know that even when we suck, we are still better than Illinois. _________________

10 point lead with 6 minutes to go... Never under estimate the trolling ability of Canada and BB. _________________

When he's not trolling us, BB is trolling the opponent by running up the score  _________________

TJ Watt will play TE.
Marcus Ball will be a DB of some sort, and is a good bet to commit.
Yeah, another 4*. I <3 Chance.
We're not moving to a 3-4 any time soon, but that's not that big a deal. James, Obasih, Hayes, Adeyanju, Latham, and more mean we should have enviable D-line depth and skill in a few years. _________________

The offense was quite good in the 2nd half. It's amazing how good we can look when the interior line plays well.
I'm hoping we turned a corner and can stack some wins together. At 4-2 with Purdue and Minnesota coming up, we have a chance to really put some distance between ourselves and the rest of our eligible division. _________________

That said, the future still looks good, especially on defense. I don't think Stave should be the starter next year though unless he improves his accuracy. He missed 3 throws and got lucky that UI blew the coverage on Abby by 10 yards on the long touchdown. _________________

Really agree with everything here. With the slew of DL being added to the fold in the next few years, this defense could be fantastic.

Looks like I'm the only one on the Stave bandwagon.  _________________
