94.5 ESPN Milwaukee host Mark Tauscher has been named the new lead radio analyst for Wisconsin Badgers football broadcasts.
Tauscher, a former Badger and Green Bay Packer, joined the school’s broadcast team in 2012 as a second analyst alongside Matt Lepay and Mike Lucas. Lucas, however, retired in May, leading Tauscher to the top spot.
“The energy around this upcoming Badger football season is electric and I’m excited to be a part of the soundtrack of Wisconsin football along with the legend Matt Lepay this fall,” Tauscher said.
After beginning his Wisconsin career as a walk-on, Tauscher started 12 games at right tackle for the Badgers during Ron Dayne’s Heisman Trophy-winning campaign in 1999.
“Tausch is a Badger through and through and brings a perfect combination of football knowledge and media savvy,” UW Director of Athletics Chris McIntosh said in a press release.
“He has developed into a true professional in the broadcasting world and has the perspective of a former Wisconsin football player and Packer legend that our fans will enjoy. I’m excited about all the ways he’ll be able to engage with our fans and bring an inside look at our football program.”
In addition to his work with the Badger Radio Network, Mark Tauscher co-hosts The Wilde and Tausch Show, which airs in both Madison and Milwaukee. He previously served as a pregame and postgame analyst on the Green Bay Packers Radio Network from 2011 to 2018.
