Better Know a B1G: Hoosier Penix

Today we continue our series introducing the new Big 10 rivals with some reminiscence about one of the most beloved modern Huskies. Next week, Michael Penix, Jr. will hear his name called at the NFL Draft and find out where he will play as a professional. Two years ago, it was not at all clear that Penix had a professional future. He was coming off a season in which he threw only 4 TDs against 7 Interceptions. He had suffered serious injuries to end each of his four seasons at Indiana. He joined UW as someone who could compete with incumbent starter Dylan Morris.
