Will the Packers Regret Cutting Aaron Jones?

In this week's episode of The Wisconsin Sportscast, Mike Lucas and Tom Oates discuss Green Bay adding top-notch running back Josh Jacobs to its roster while releasing longtime Packer Aaron Jones. “I thought Jones would have been a perfect match with Josh Jacobs,” says Oates, the former Wisconsin State Journal sports columnist. “However, the Packers have a lot of picks in the draft and they can go find themselves another running back. But I can guarantee you one thing, whoever they draft won’t be as good as Aaron Jones.” The veteran sports journalists also preview the Wisconsin men’s basketball team’s postseason prospects. The Badgers had some discouraging losses in February but delivered an admirable showing during their last regular season game against no. 3 Purdue. Lucas says all eyes are on Wisconsin center Steven Crowl. “How do you explain Crowl disappearing in some of these games?” asks Lucas, a Cap Times sports freelance writer and former radio color analyst for the Badgers. “He was invisible in the Purdue game except for the foul problems. The Badgers can’t win key games without Crowl.”  The Wisconsin Sportscast with Lucas & Oates is a Cap Times podcast produced by Dylan Brogan.
