Justin Wilcox never got the chance to coach against Wisconsin in the Holiday Bowl, but now he has the opportunity to coach for the Badgers in 2016, according to a report by Football Scoop.
The former USC defensive coordinator who was fired by Clay Helton after a dismal defensive display against Stanford in the Pac-12 Championship game will have tough shoes to fill in Madison. When Dave Aranda left the Badgers this offseason to take over as defensive coordinator at LSU, he left behind one of the nation’s top defenses. Wilcox will be in charge of keeping the unit on top.
