Badgers will have some rebuilding to do on D. Benton and Herbig were a two-man wrecking crew.

Yep, and they will have to do it without Leonard. I'm feeling it.

Looks like Ratzlaff was on the lineup card for the Madison junior hockey team today, so he may be done with Badger football also.

Should be easy to get on the badger hockey team. They are so bad.

When Ratzlaff was deciding sports, the belief was that it was either gophers for hockey or badgers - is there any thought that he might try to transfer to the good side of the river if he is planning on pursuing hockey?

I haven't heard anything but I'm not sure we'd take him back at this point. I'm guessing we've moved on in terms of recruiting. Hockey only has so many spots available.

We'd could definitely take him, we've got a senior and junior who've never seen the ice this season. It'd be hard to crack the top 7 here.

I hope not. The team is fine as is no need to waste scholarship money on a guy who is trying to get back into hockey.

Injuries pushed him out of football, unfortunately.
