UW next season must replace cornerbacks Jay Shaw, Justin Clark and Cedrick Dort Jr. Smith announced late in the regular season he planned to return to UW for his final season in 2023. He likely will be the team's most experienced cornerback. "The No. 1 t hing I saw on his tape was his versatility," Leonhard said. "He had the length. He had the twitch, the speed. You saw him on offense. You saw him on defense. You saw him returning kicks. He played physical. It was just a little bit of everything. "And wh en you (combine) the skill set you saw on tape with who he is from a character standpoint, it was just a perfect fit. It was awesome to get him on campus." But? "You never know -- you get players from outside the area -- how they're going to respond," Le onhard said. "You saw his eyes light up. He understood what Wisconsin was about and that's why he didn't take very long with his decision." - Journal Sentinel

Rachad Wildgoose's decision to turn pro after last season, a season in which he played in only two games, stripped Wisconsin of one its better cornerbacks. Barring injury, seniors Faion Hicks and Caesar Williams will enter the 2021 season as UW's best an d most experienced cornerbacks. Defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard and new cornerbacks coach Hank Poteat are using spring ball to evaluate the depth at the position and find the next options behind Hicks and Williams. Two players who have taken advantage of the opportunities are Alexander Smith and Dean Engram, with each player getting work on the outside and at the nickel cornerback position. "I'd say in general we feel like they all certainly have a good talent base to them and I think as a group each one individually is coming from a good place," head coach Paul Chryst said recently when asked about the cornerbacks. "They want to be good players and they want to work at it. "But I think that Dean Engram and Alex have been doing a great job of kind o f taking the coaching and trusting that and you can now start to see that progression. "That's not to say the other guys aren't taking the coaching. But I think that you're starting to see some consistency in them." - Journal Sentinel
