At the end of spring practice, Loudermilk was a projected starting end on Wisconsin’s defense. Now, at the least, the Badgers defense will have another body flying at opposing quarterbacks.
Loudermilk is a sophomore and was a 3-star recruit coming out of high school according to 247Sports. In May, he underwent knee surgery. Apparently, Loudermilk has done well recovering.
In Week 1, Wisconsin had no trouble offensively or defensively. The Badgers took care of Western Kentucky 34-3.
This coming Saturday will present a different challenge, as the team is scheduled to host New Mexico for a noon kickoff. The game will be televised on BTN.
