Head coach Paul Chryst comments on UW’s passing game during fall camp

Head coach Paul Chryst comments on UW’s passing game during fall camp

Wisconsin, who enters the season ranked No. 18, is just weeks away from its season opener on September 3 against the Illinois State Redbirds.

After a disappointing 9-4 finish last season, head coach Paul Chryst decided it was time to shake things up on the coaching staff, specifically as it pertained to the offense.

Back-to-back underwhelming seasons by Wisconsin’s offense, a stale, predictable playbook, and inconsistent quarterback play from Graham Mertz left the Badgers needing an influx of new ideas and fast.

Now, there is a collective excitement amongst Badgers fans, who want to get their first look at UW’s new-look offense under first-year offensive coordinator Bobby Engram.

If the Badgers are going to win the Big Ten West and return to Indianapolis, they’ll need to move the chains through the air on occasion to keep defenses honest, in addition to more consistent play from their QB1 in 2022.

On Monday, coach Chryst met with the media and was asked how the passing game was coming along; he had this to say:

“There’s times where you feel like we’re making progress, and then there’s times where we gotta take advantage of this camp because it’s not where we want to be,” Chryst explained during his media availability. “There are moments, but it’s not where we want to be yet.”
