According to University of Wisconsin running back Dare Ogunbowale, he takes the most naps out of anyone on the football team, and he said his teammates can attest to that.

But those naps are well-deserved, as on top of being one of the focal points for the Badgers’ offensive attack this coming season, Ogunbowale is working to help all UW student athletes find post-graduate life beyond sports.

Ogunbowale currently serves as president of UW’s chapter of Beyond the Game, which is an initiative to strengthen the post-graduation trajectories of student athletes.

When Ogunbowale initially got involved with the program, however, he saw that there was a lot that could be changed and improved upon.
