Yeah I was at the game. Very good atmosphere especially for niu. Might help if students could find there way to the stadium on time

I thought we played great, almost all of our questions were answered, even though it was an small sample I thought we looked great.

Couple of bad/questionable decisions and penalty's but nothing overly bad.

[badgerbasketball33]

Yeah if we didn't beat ourselves during the 4th quarter we win 31-6

[TroyD92]

Jermaine Barton, Cameron Ontoko, Aaron Armstrong, Dallas LeWallen, Jake Irwin, James White, Vinnie Mauro, Carl Davis, Will Hagerup, and Robbie Havenstein were all confirmed as guests with photo's.

Big crop right there if we can get 2 or 3 of the uncommitted players ill be very pleased.

I disagree I see at the very least two, form Smith and White.

I thought ching was there too? maybe not? I would say alex smith is our best bet.. I would think white goes to clemson, havenstein to penn state. hopefully we get mauro or ching.

I think he just meant in the next few days. They'll all go through more visits before their final decision, I think.

I thought so to, but he wasn't pictured in the slide show on Badger Blitz. If he wasn't in attendance and watched the BYU game instead, I think that sealed Bucky's fate. It was always going to be tough to attract him to Wisconsin without much of a Samoan population to speak of and the good status of the in-state program who offered.

I agree that Smith will come to Wisconsin, has inkled about doing so in recent articles, and he had to like what he saw out of Graham, who as a bonus is a senior. I think we have a good shot at Havenstein and White. Havenstein is our type of lineman and White might have liked to see Brown featured over Clay. Brown is more White's style of running back. Don't ask me how to explain why I think this (probably can't), but both seemed happy to be in Madison and in the moment from their pictures. They're not really smiling, but that's as part of trying to look like a tough football player probably. Mauro on the other hand looks like he was feigning interest and the visit was out of obligation. I feel confident in he and Carl Davis going in another direction.

Id prefer Allen and Gaston over Davis anyways so not a huge loss, Barton is a guy im interested to here from, even though im 90% sure he'll be a Cane it still interests me what he thought.

[badgerbasketball33]

yeah i meant i thought nobody was ready to commit in the next few days not ever. We definetly have good chances with most of the guys who came yesterday

[TroyD92]

Well after the visit, UW seems to be in the top tier for James White, Carl Davis, Vinnie Mauro, and Robbie Havenstine. Those are the only ones that have been heard from so far.
