Erickson’s UW career likely done, regardless of eligibility appeal

The Holiday Bowl will likely be the final game Alex Erickson will play in a Badgers uniform. Wisconsin’s coaches are awaiting an appeal on Erickson’s eligibility. Erickson enrolled at Wisconsin in the fall of 2011 as a student, but did not join the football team until the spring of 2012. He redshirted the 2012 season, but is still classified as a redshirt senior by the NCAA. Regardless of the result of the appeal, Erickson says he’s “probably” done with his college career and will focus on the next level.
