Insider says Wisconsin is “very much in play” after Luke Fickell offers 2027 OT

Wisconsin is cruising right now in the 2027 recruiting class. The class is already inside the top-20 and has been hovering around No. 15 for months. Luke Fickell isn't slowing down, and he, along with offensive line coach Eric Mateos, has their sights set on a new offensive line target from Pennsylvania, Tyler Graham.

The Badgers gave him an offer yesterday, May 18, and immediately, Evan Flood of On3.com (a Wisconsin recruiting insider) says that the Badgers are "very much in play." In other words, Graham may end up at Wisconsin after his recruiting winds down. It would be another good pickup for Mateos, and Graham looks like he has all the tools to be part of OL-U.

Graham is 6'5 and 270 pounds with 20 offers to his credit. While Graham has offers from schools like Maryland, Kentucky, Pitt, UCLA, and Stanford, the team to beat may end up being Duke. However, there's strong optimism that Mateos, even late in the cycle, can pull off the recruiting win.

Once again, Evan Flood has Graham listing Wisconsin in his top three. Not only was Graham excited to get the Badger offer, but he was also the one to drop the "It's OL-U" as a quote.

The class is already shaping up nicely, with 13 players already committed, and most of them from in-state. There's a handful of 4-star players with a bunch of great 3-stars to round out the class. This is shaping up to be Luke Fickell's best recruiting class since he's been here. It's hard not to think that there truly is NIL money now, when the administration was being cheap before.

Pay attention to Graham's recruitiment, things seem to be moving fast and the Badgers are hoping to get him to Madison and close the door to all other programs.
