Wisconsin Badgers Football Lands Another Talented Transfer Portal Defensive Back
Wisconsin has already put together a rather exceptional transfer class considering the needs that have been filled. Despite this, the Badgers have continued to add to their class as they look for more depth as positions of need. The Wisconsin football staff had stated previously that they felt they needed a slot corner back to solidify their defense. With the addition of Mack, the team has got just what they wanted.
Mike Mack joins the Badgers squad as a Junior, with two-years of eligibility currently remaining. Mack comes in at 6-foot-1-inch, 200-pounds with quite the speed to move across the field. Mack has excellent field vision and great instincts that allow him to make his way to the play every time.
This past season, Mack recorded 42 tackles, one interception, and three pass defenses for the Falcons. The defensive back played around the secondary for the Falcons and has experience playing as a safety as well. However, the Badgers are likely going to use Mack as a versatile slot corner back in their defense due to their need at the position.
