Once the backbone of the Wisconsin football program, the Badgers running backs took a step back last season.
An unfortunate mixture of injuries and poor hardware/software compatibility within the offense led to a huge underachievement in comparison to “Wisconsin football standards” and certainly compared to the pre-season hype.

Obviously, the big news out of spring has been that Chez Mellusi has participated a lot more than anyone could have anticipated this spring.
