Wisconsin walk-on guard with multi-sport toughness
Ferris is a **depth-piece guard** at Wisconsin whose value is less about box-score production and more about versatility, competitiveness, and team-first reliability. Wisconsin listed him as a versatile wing/walk-on who had appeared in 20 career games, with his early college flashes including small but useful contributions in minutes, assists, steals, rebounds, and first points in limited action[2]. His differentiator is an athlete’s background and toughness: he was a multi-sport high school standout and a record-setting quarterback, which suggests coordination, poise, and competitive intensity that can translate well to a program needing smart, low-maintenance backcourt depth[5][10].
