What being a Badger means to me: Wisconsin football players reflect on being a Badger

When you think of Wisconsin, you think of Wisconsin football. When football players think of Wisconsin, they think of a history of excellence that has been achieved by those who came before them, and a set of behaviors that are expected from all players.

For quarterback Alex Hornibrook, being a Badger means being a hard-worker, especially if you want to see your name on the screen in Camp Randall. For a school that has produced many great quarterbacks, being a hard-worker is definitely a skill that you need to get noticed in this football town.
