The Wisconsin Badgers just keep hitting in June. Following yet another strong weekend of official visits, the Badgers are now sitting all the way at No. 13 overall in the nation with their 2027 recruiting class.

Hailing 20 commits, Wisconsin has made some serious ground over the last two weeks, landing priority targets at an exceptionally high rate. Now at No. 13, Wisconsin currently has the fourth-best recruiting class in the Big Ten behind only Penn State (No. 8 overall, 22 commits), UCLA (No. 9 overall, 20 commits), and USC (No. 10 overall, 13 commits).

They were able to leapfrog Oregon (No. 14 overall, 14 commits), Minnesota (No. 15 overall, 26 commits), Michigan (No. 16 overall, 16 commits), Washington (No. 17 overall, 17 commits), and Nebraska (No. 19 overall, 15 commits), as Luke Fickell and his staff have locked down a number of visitors.

Looking at the visitor list, Wisconsin landed five of its six uncommitted targets last weekend, with three-star edge rusher Darin Graham being the latest to pledge to the program this weekend. Then, this weekend, the Badgers brought in six more targets as they looked to put the finishing touches on the class. So far, they’ve landed commitments from three-star defensive lineman Yahzeen Zion and three-star wide receiver Steele Harris.

Wisconsin is still in play for four-star offensive lineman Alijah Shaw and three-star safety James Roberson, as well as three-star wide receiver Chuck Alexander. We’ll see how they round out the week, but it’s been quite the haul so far in the 2027 class.

The Badgers won’t finish as a top-15 class in the country, but it’s good to see them have some heavy momentum here over the past few weeks.
