Wisconsin Basketball Roundtable: Feb. 28, 2020

It's a big recruiting weekend for the Badgers. They are expected to host 15 players on official visits, including five players already committed. Zach and Jesse discuss those guys and the importance of a weekend like this. They also get into the commitment of transfer DL Brandon Lane, debate which coaches and players are under the most pressure this fall and then finish with the potential that the opener against Western Michigan could be on Friday night.

Wisconsin hit the portal hard for a defensive lineman but came up empty. Are they now done for the year? Also, one writer has Luke Fickell on the hot seat this season. The guys discuss how ridiculous that is. They also dive into the updated SP+ rankings, the Alabama game time, no Friday night games on FOX and the House vs NCAA case settlement.

Everyone put out their post-spring depth chart. Zach and Jesse go through theirs, including some differences at outside linebacker, inside linebacker and in the secondary. They also discuss some interesting figures regarding the number of Wisconsin-born players on the roster.
