I will agree that, at the moment, Wisconsin is overrated.

Bo Ryan was on Andy Katz's podcast and did not sugarcoat anything; he said that he expects his young squad to endure some growing pains and be exposed within the next month with a difficult non-conference slate, but still hopes Wisconsin is on the "left side" of the column (which he defines as the winning side). He also made mention that he does not expect to get a good read on his team until January.

That being said, Bo has two of the better players in the B1G at his disposal in Nigel Hayes and Bronson Koenig. Hayes is already one of the better players in the country and Koenig averaged double-figures, had the best assist/turnover ratio in the B1G, and at 6-foot-4 poses a match-up problem at the PG position.

They should be fine come March, especially once the younger guys get some more experience under their belt, but I will agree they are currently overrated.

If Hayes does not turn pro after this season, Wisconsin should sport another elite squad in 2016-17.
