Wisconsin suffering from attrition

The Wisconsin Badgers, LSU's season-opening opponent in the Advocare Texas Kickoff in Houston, has lost two freshman receivers and a backup nose tackle, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported Friday.
Freshman wide outs Dareian Watkins of Galion, Ohio, and Chris Jones of Baltimore will not be with the team when it reports for fall camp. Also gone are nose tackle Bryce Gilbert and safety Nate Hammon.
Watkins returned home because of family issues and it is not clear if he will return, the J-S reported. Jones qualified academically under NCAA standards but did not meet Wisconsin's high academic targets. They were two of a five-member freshman class of receivers expected to vie for playing time.
"It doesn't change anything for me," Badgers' wide receivers coach Chris Beatty said. "Of course you'd love to have all five come in. But I'm happy with the three kids who are here. They had great summers."Gilbert, who has graduated, played in eight games last year and had seven tackles. He was the No. 2 nose tackle in spring practice. Hammon is giving up football because of leg injuries, the J-S reported.
Other players who will not return this season are: reserve defensive back Hugs Etienne, reserve linebacker Jake Rademacher, reserve punter Brett Nethery and Alex Walker, a backup tight end who was moved to offensive line in the spring

None of them were major contributors to the team.

Well the two WRs were both incoming freshmen. Guess they didn't make their grades. This kind of stuff happens.
Wisconsin actually does need some fresh blood at WR. Fortunately for them, their big get at the position for 2014 (Krenwick Sanders) enrolled early and went through Spring practice.
Starting WRs should be Doe and Peavy, with Sanders contributing off the bench (even as early as LSU).

Not sure about that, not counting the freshman Wrs, Wisconsin has now lost 32 players from last year's team. 26 seniors and 6 underclassman have now left.

Losing the back-up nose tackle could be a depth issue late in a game, but these things will build on both sides. Injuries will happen when fall practice starts...

How does this compare to the attrition that LSU has had? Jr's leaving for the NFL early and the other transfers? I could be wrong, Not!, but LSU would gladly trade players lost.

We're gonna beat the dog shite out of Wisconsin. Regardless

Hugs Etienne? Sounds like a Louisiana name

That RB they have is pretty serious.

Just have to control this one on the ground and should be a comfortable 10 point type win
