Though listed as a running back currently by Wisconsin during the early signing period, Quan Easterling could be the next in the line of impactful fullbacks for UW. The Ohio product has a bruising style and his pancake blocks are only rivaled by those served up at Mickey’s Dairy Bar. The combo of Easterling and fellow 2019 commit running back Julius Davis might be a fan favorite rushing duo for years to come.
