Badgers may fight Lucas transfer

The Wisconsin Badger football program could be headed to
litigation over the proposed transfer of defensive back
Xavier Lucas to Miami.  Lucas announced earlier this week
that he would play for Miami in 2025, but that announcement
came just weeks after he signed a two-year revenue sharing
deal with the Wisconsin collective.  That would seem to bind
Lucas to the Badgers for the next two seasons.  Lucas did not
receive a release to the transfer portal from Wisconsin, so
there could be legal implications to his departure.  Lucas is
from Pompano Beach, Florida, and was a freshman at Wisconsin
in 2024.  He played in eleven games last season, and had 25
tackles, one tackle for loss and one pass interception.
