Wisconsin Football Recruiting Headlines

2027 3⭐ OL Ethan McIntosh (Verona Area) committed to Wisconsin to live out a childhood dream, he told me. McIntosh was the Badgers’ first 2027 commitment and is the son of Wisconsin’s former athletic director Chris McIntosh, who left for a position with the Big Ten this spring.
“Being a Badger has been a huge dream of mine ever since I was little. To represent my community and family in the red jersey is a feeling I cannot wait to experience. Seeing this in-state class come together and see Coach Fickell’s vision with the program is really something cool to watch. These fellas are hungry, dedicated and ready to put the world on notice.”

2028 3⭐ TE Jake Mau (Kimberly) will visit Wisconsin this weekend, he told me. He traveled to Indiana, USF and North Dakota State the past three weeks and holds seven Division I offers. Mau will visit Minnesota on Nov. 7 and Notre Dame on Nov. 14 with unscheduled trips to Toledo and South Dakota State.

2027 4⭐ OL Cole Reiter (Germantown) committed to Wisconsin over Penn State and Kansas, his mom told me. He also took trips to Ohio State and Indiana before making a decision. After taking his campus visits around the country, Reiter still preferred what he saw from Wisconsin and joined the Badgers’ in-state class.
“He has been a Badger fan since he was a young boy, and this state is his home. There is a strong bond between the 2027 recruiting class, and they all believe in the program and want to be part of what is being built.”

Loken may also get some road games and committed to Wisconsin in January over Notre Dame, Florida State and Indiana. He plans to enroll early and is not responding to other schools interested in flipping him.

Korz Loken

2027 4⭐ TE Korz Loken (Iola-Scandinavia) committed to Wisconsin over Notre Dame, Florida State and Indiana, he tells me. Loken chose the Badgers for a number of reasons including the coaching staff, offensive game plan and shared vision inside the program.
“Everyone on that team wants to win and is working incredibly hard every day toward that goal of being a winning team. I feel like this will be a successful year, and it is just an environment that I want to be a part of. I know that the coaches and players around me will lead me to be the best that I can be and I hope to do the same for them.”

Hunter Mallinger

2027 4⭐ OL Hunter Mallinger (Hamilton) committed to Wisconsin after considering Indiana, Minnesota, Northwestern and Kansas, he tells me. Mallinger committed alongside his twin brother Reece, who is also expected to join the Badgers offensive line. He credited the coaching staff for taking steps in the right direction for the future of the program.
“Every kid in Wisconsin grows up dreaming of playing for the Badgers. I actually get to live that dream, which made the decision pretty easy. We had so much momentum going into this class with all of the other in-state commits. We all wanted to go together and make a good impact on this upcoming Badger team.”
