Wisconsin’s tone-setting fullback who turned toughness into a badge of honor
Bradie Ewing is best remembered as a bruising, high-IQ Wisconsin fullback who helped power the Badgers’ back-to-back Big Ten titles and 2011 championship run, then carried that same leadership into a post-playing role with the program. In the 2011 season, he was named Wisconsin’s Special Teams Player of the Year and served as a team captain, a strong clue to his intensity, versatility, and locker-room value. He’s a good fit for a culture that prizes selfless, physical, detail-driven football—less flashy, more glue-guy, and absolutely the kind of player coaches trust.
