Badgers coach on transfer: ‘He’s probably the fastest guy we’ve had in a long time with the ball’

 

The Wisconsin Badgers had five additions in the transfer portal this offseason, but none were more exciting than getting San Diego State transfer Nick Boyd.

 

Boyd is expected to take over the starting point guard role for the Badgers, complementing star John Blackwell in the backcourt.

 

He had his best season in 2024, averaging 13.4 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 3.9 assists while running the show at San Diego State. That followed three seasons at FAU, where Boyd was a part of the miraculous Final Four run back in 2023.

 

Now, he’ll look to be a key player for the Badgers in 2025, and he’s already impressing the coaching staff in summer workouts.
