Xavier Lucas, a former American Heritage football star, knew he wanted to come home. But Wisconsin, where he spent his first year of college, did not want to let him transfer. The Badgers did not enter the cornerback’s name in the transfer portal within two business days,

Wisconsin and the Big Ten said they have "credible information" that the University of Miami tampered with Xavier Lucas ahead of the defensive back's expected transfer.

The Big Ten, NCAA and Wisconsin have all weighed in the DB's transfer in a battle that could set a precedent for future transfers and revenue-sharing contracts

The NCAA requires schools to adhere to a player’s transfer request, but Lucas' name never appeared in the portal.

The Badgers say cornerback Xavier Lucas had entered into a two-year binding name, image and likeness agreement with Wisconsin.
