Badgers redshirt junior quarterback Graham Mertz has been named to the Johnny Unitas Gold Arm Watch List.
The announcement was made Wednesday.
Mertz is one of 13 Big Ten Conference players on the watch list for the prestigious postseason honor recognizing the top upperclassman quarterback in the country.
The arrival of new offensive coordinator Bobby Engram offers hope that the Kansas native will finally live up to the hype that preceded his arrival in Madison.
He was a 4-star recruit but has produced middling results so far.
