Wisconsin's New CB Coach Steeples Flips Script

0:00On April 25th, Wisconsin's cornerback group took a beating last season, especially against top passing attacks. They signed four transfers from the portal to shore things up, but the real game changer might be their new cornerbacks coach, Robert Steeples. Teams like Indiana and Alabama carved them up, with those quarterbacks hitting over 90% completion and throwing for big yards and touchdowns. Coach Luke Fickle straight up said they needed massive work on man coverage after one of those losses. Steeples brings sharp experience from big college programs and the NFL, and secondary coach Paul Haynes already loves his focus on details during. Spring practice, that kind of intensity should help the badges match up better. Steeples handpicked this crew for variety, think versatile Arizona State transfer, Javon Robinson, tall Florida State corner, Sy Vates, Speedy Eric. Fletcher from Oklahoma State, and physical nickel Bryce West from Ohio State. Now they've got real depth for quick rotations, keeping legs fresh like hockey line changes.
