Greg Gard is a known transfer portal winner, but it’s almost always after the fact. Typically, in the midst of the transfer portal, he and Wisconsin basketball are flying under the radar. Most pundits aren’t excited about Wisconsin in the portal until players like Nick Boyd and John Tonje prove that Gard knows how to haul in a great portal class.
This year is no exception. Absolutely no one is talking about the Badgers in the transfer portal, until Andy Katz took notice. He jumped on the Big Ten social media today to detail how he’s impressed again with Greg Gard’s portalling ability. “They brought in winners,” Katz said. While Wisconsin almost flew under the radar again, even with Katz, as he has them 8th on his Big Ten list of “winning in the portal.”
