For the first time since the entire UW-Madison marching band was suspended and kept out of the football team’s Oct. 4 Camp Randall game against Ohio State, band members resumed pratice, with no guarantee they will play at Saturday’s badger home game against Penn State.
Band director Mike Leckrone has told 27 News the suspension was the result of accusations of a pattern of season long hazing, and allegedly inappropriate actions by band members during last month’s trip to Michigan for a badger game.
