New Wisconsin football coach Luke Fickell is stocking up at the quarterback position this offseason. On Friday, he landed an experienced transfer signal caller: former SMU and Oklahoma quarterback Tanner Mordecai.
“Wisconsin—After conversations with Coach Fickell and Coach [Phil] Longo, I am excited to announce I will utilize my last year of eligibility at the University of Wisconsin,” Mordecai announced via Twitter. “I could not be more fired up to play at a school with rich history and a winning culture. Let’s ride!”
He joins another former Oklahoma quarterback, Nick Evers, in Madison as Fickell seeks to build depth at the sport’s most important position. Mordecai gives him a player with significant on-field experience.
