Why Wisconsin?
"I chose Wisconsin because it meant coming home. I have grown up a Badger fan my whole life, and to finally become one is a dream come true. The legacy and traditions both academically and athletically I believe are some of the best in the country. I'm really looking forward to following in the footsteps of so many greats as well as preparing myself for life after college."
