Why former USC commit Atticus Bertrams transferred to the Badgers

The Wisconsin Badgers landed a commitment from Australian punter Atticus Bertrams on Friday, marking their second special-teamer via the transfer portal after kicker Nathanial Vakos transferred from Ohio in the winter.

Bertrams, a former USC commit in the 2022 class, has spent time with Prokick Australia, run by former NFL specialists Nathan Chapman and John Smith, after electing not to enroll at USC last year.

Why did Bertrams choose Wisconsin?

The opportunity of Big Ten football and Luke Fickell behind the helm of the program made the choice easy for Bertrams, who comes in as a punter.
