What's The Strongest Part of The Packers & Badgers Recruiting Resurgence in Madison

Homer and former Packers and Badgers running back Gary Ellerson discussed the recent uptick in Wisconsin football recruiting, including the importance of landing more in-state talent and what it could mean for the program’s future. The guys looked ahead to the Badgers’ 2026 outlook, debating expectations for their record and whether former players feel welcomed back under head coach Luke Fickell. They also examined whether the program’s struggles have stemmed from style of play, financial factors, or a combination of both. Shifting to the Packers, Ellerson shared what he believes is the team’s strongest area and whether, with better injury luck, Green Bay should have Super Bowl expectations this season. They wrapped up by reacting to President Trump signing an executive order targeting college sports, including transfers and eligibility, and what it could mean for the future of the game. A blend of Badgers football, Packers potential, and big-picture college sports discussion on The Homer Hour.
