When we all thought the Badgers were done after getting commitments from G D’Mitrik Trice and F Aleem Ford yesterday, another player has been added to the roster.

Fenwick High School (Oak Park, IL) 6’5″ guard Michael Ballard announced his commitment to Wisconsin on Sunday night as a preferred walk-on.
