## Resource

Wisconsin football is heating up ahead of Big Ten Media Days, with fall camp kicking off August 6th and a Week One starting lineup taking shape. QB Colton Joseph is locked in, while Abu Sama leads the running backs and Chris Brooks Jr. and Tyrell Henry anchor the receivers. The offensive line is mostly set, but left tackle could be decided between PJ Wilkins and Lucas Simmons-Johansson. On defense, veterans like Hammond Russell and Charles Perkins lead the D-line, while Sebastian Cheeks headlines the OLB corps — but who joins him? Inside linebacker looks solid with Mason Posa and Cooper Catalano, but third spot is wide open for Jon Jon Kamara and Thomas Heiberger. Safety duo Marvin Burks Jr. and Matt Jung are expected to start, but the cornerback battle — especially at boundary — is where the real drama’s brewing.
