Wisconsin Badgers Thread | Fick got the Axe back

There's belief that all 4 of Moore, Snowden, Duclona and Arnold are going to get time immediately. Arnold will likely be our return specialist while Snowden and Duclona compete for starting CB slots and Moore pushes Latu and Wohler for their spots. Either way, they'll all see the field next year. Taylor may push for time at safety due to his versatility as well. AJ Tisdell is probably the only one that truly redshirts.

We still have 10 scholarships to play with too.

Best slot prospect we've had since AJ Taylor, he should also be an immediate option in the return game, nice last minute snag. 

Between him and Arnold, our return game is going to be legit. The return game is Arnold's calling card right now.

25 scholarships available for the 2024 class (as it stands). Not sure how the Mellusi and Smith scholarships work and whether or not they actually count toward the scholarship totals. If they don't, it doesn't really matter since that would only be an issue for the 23 class but I have a feeling we're not going to be at a full 85 scholarship players barring a pillage of the transfer portal or we extend the freshman class significantly during the January signing period, which would mean adding more than 9 players to the 23 roster.

Of course, that also doesn't include past PWOs and normal WOs that could grab scholarships for the 23 season from Fickell and company.

There's also the chance that more kids are going to leave after the bowl game and Jim's time here is done. So we'll see what happens.
