MADISON, Wis. (AP) – Now that he’s finally healthy, Wisconsin’s Nick Toon has big things in mind. He wants to be one of the best wide receivers in the country and follow his father’s path to the NFL.
Toon had a career-high 155 yards receiving and two touchdowns in the Badgers’ 59-10 victory over South Dakota on Saturday. He’s the son of former Wisconsin and New York Jets standout Al Toon, but his Badgers career appeared to stall last year when he struggled with a turf toe injury.
Going into Saturday night’s highly anticipated conference opener against Big Ten newcomer Nebraska at Camp Randall Stadium, Toon is bound to start getting his share of national attention.
Badgers coach Bret Bielema says Toon is “as good as any wide receiver in the country.”
