Wisconsin excited to play no matter who their opponent is

MADISON, Wis. — It’s been a crazy couple of days for the Badger men’s basketball team.

On Monday they announced their game against Morgan State was canceled because of COVID-19 issues within the Bear’s program and then the search began.

Greg Gard and his staff started looking for a new opponent and around 4:00 o’clock on Tuesday, George Mason agreed to come to the Kohl Center. 

“We had to bring an extra chair in…”#Badgers Greg Gard said, “it was crowded at practice, which is a good thing” and Brad Davison echoed his statement.
