The Wisconsin Badgers football team has had one of its worst seasons this year, and things got even worse for them as at least seven players decided to enter the transfer portal.

There’s not much that can be done about it, and now they can’t wait and instead try to improve the situation next season.

According to reports, Badgers made an offer to Sascha GarciaAll-American of the William & Mary Tribe football team.

“Blessed to receive an offer from the University of Wisconsin!” – wrote the player on his X account.

The transaction between both parties is not final yet. He posted offers on Twitter that he receives from other programs.

Garcia played 14 matches this year and recorded a total of 19 tackles (14 solo) and 11 pass deflections.

Other programs wanting his signature include Maryland, Western Kentucky, Akron, East Carolina, Cincinnati, Sacramento State, Utah State and UMass.

The Wisconsin Badgers are looking for a cornerback

Garcia could be considered a hotshot recruit for the Badgers because he will meet their most urgent needs following an unsuccessful 2024 season with coach Luke Fickell.

The Badgers are in dire need of cornerbacks, having lost quite a few of them to the transfer portal this offseason. So far, Amare Snowden, Jonas Duclona, ​​Jace Arnold and Max Lofy have left the portal, while Nyzier Fourqurean and RJ Delancy are ineligible.

Garcia still has three years left, so he could be a Badgers player for a long time.

Fickell has been very successful for the Badgers this month.

The team recently signed 6-foot-7, 240-pound Tanner Koziol, who described his commitment to Wisconsin as a dream.

All the people really made us feel at home. It’s only two hours from home. Growing up in the Midwest, the Big Ten was always a dream. The coaches made things really good.
