IMPACT MOVE: Can Marvin Burks TRANSFORM the Wisconsin Badgers’ Defensive Backfield This Season?

Wisconsin Badgers revamp their secondary with SEC transfer Marvin Burks Jr.—but is this defensive backfield ready to excel, or will lingering concerns about safety roles and coverage versatility hold them back? Ryan Harings and Coach Anderson scrutinize Burks’ fit, Matt Jung's evolution, and whether the Badgers have finally found the rangy defensive presence they’ve lacked. The discussion spotlights key additions like Javan Robinson and Bryce West, plus a complete overhaul at cornerback that could redefine Wisconsin’s coverage game. Get expert takes on Liam Danitz’s lottery-ticket potential at linebacker, the challenge of replacing run-stopping stalwarts and expectations for Cooper and Posa’s second-year jump. Featured topics include reshaping the defensive line, linebacker versatility in Luke Fickell’s evolving scheme, and why Jon Jon Kamara could be the Badgers’ sleeper defensive breakout. Is this the year Wisconsin’s defense returns to dominance—or are major question marks still unaddressed?
