One of the guys who runs Wisconsin's 247Sports site (247 is a network in the mold of Scout and Rivals) has been tweeting a few updates on Russell Wilson's visit to Wisconsin. This free agency thing sounds like fun.

Sources: Nick Toon met Russell Wilson last night, showed him around Madison. Future Badger connection? Wilson with coaches today. #Badgers

Source: "He (Russell Wilson) loves it here (UW). He's completely opposite of what I thought and perceived. (very nice, likeable)" #Badgers

Kind of bizarre to read that someone had a negative perception of Russell Wilson.

Yesterday, the Journal Sentinel reported that Wisconsin head coach Bret Bielema skipped an alumni function on Tuesday night to meet with Wilson. Also:

However, according to a source, UW has emerged as the leader for Wilson’s services because the Badgers suffered fewer off-season personnel losses than Auburn.

The Badgers, who run a pro-style offense, are expected to contend for the Big Ten Conference title.
Auburn, which won the BCS title last season, is not expected to repeat as Southeastern Conference West Division champions.
