Despite losing last night in horrific fashion to the Ducks, I couldn’t be prouder of Jonathan Taylor. I couldn’t be prouder if I tried, and I think I speak for Wisconsin fans everywhere.
In my 27 years of life, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a better representative of the university than Taylor.

He’s arguably the greatest running back in the history of college football, and he’s an even better person.
I can only imagine the emotions flowing through him last night after the brutal loss as he walked off the field for likely the last time.

The man has had a hell of a career for the Badgers, and now it’s almost certainly over. The young man left it all on the field over the past three years.
I’m not sure I’ve ever enjoyed watching any Badgers athlete more than him. While I’m sad that we’re probably at the conclusion, I’m happy we got to see Taylor tear it up.

Now, it’s time for him to go make some money in the NFL if that’s what he chooses. It was a hell of a ride, and he deserves everything coming his way.
