Best Badgers WR in history returns to Wisconsin with his son as a camp participant

There is one Wisconsin Badgers receiver who stands above the rest, and he has for decades: Lee Evans. He still holds multiple receiving records and often is the first name that comes to a Wisconsin fan's head when asked about historic wide receivers. Evans returned to Camp Randall today to support his son, who was attending the Wisconsin Badgers instructional camp.

Lee Evans IV is also a wide receiver who's looking to make a name for himself but has yet to show up on any recruiting databases. It does appear the Badgers coaching staff is keeping tabs on him, as Wisconsin wide receivers coach Jordan Reid spent time talking with him and even taking a picture with him.

Lee Evans brought his son to Wisconsin Summer Camp where Lee IV worked through drills from UW coaches

Lee Evans is one of the most decorated players in Wisconsin football history, most specifically at the wide receiver position, where he stands alone at the top. During his time in Madison, he set the single-season Big Ten record for receiving yards (1,545) and the school single-season records for receptions (75), touchdown catches (13), and 100-yard receiving games (8). He also holds the Wisconsin career records for receptions (175), receiving yards (3.468), and touchdown receptions (27).

In a picture posted by Nick Osen, you can see that his son stands even a little bit taller than his dad. Though he hasn't popped up on any recruiting databases, in a video posted below, he clearly knows the ins and outs of running routes.

While these camps aren't recruiting camps, they do serve a dual purpose in recruiting by allowing under-the-radar kids to receive instruction from collegiate coaches and allowing any to shine in a way that Wisconsin becomes interested in. While it doesn't appear that Wisconsin is actively recruiting Lee Evans IV, you never know how the story will unfold.
