Wisconsin commit Kingston Allen has done something in the high school game that you rarely see, at least not to this level. A player who is putting up video-game numbers week after week. He's not even playing full games, as Notre Dame Academy doesn't need him to, and his production is literally insane. And now Wisconsin fans are starting to sweat that he won't remain a Badger.

Every single week, we jump on this site and write an article about how amazing Allen's stats are, and once again it's Friday night, and we are writing about how crazy his stats are. Tonight, in the first half, he carried the ball seven times and put up 122 rushing yards and five touchdowns. You may need to read that stat line again. He only touched the ball seven times and yet had five touchdowns. It's not just that his yards per carry is an insane 17.4 yards per carry; his touchdowns per carry is 0.71.

In other words, he scored a touchdown on over 70% of his carries. Wild. This is literally playing Madden with the setting on "easy." And yet, as he continues to do this week after week, it's starting to stress Wisconsin fans out, because the goal now will be to make sure the Badgers keep him in the fold.

Kingston Allen's recruiting hasn't changed much but there is fear that it will

It's hard to figure out what's going on with Allen's recruitment. 24/7 Sports reports that he still only holds five total offers and hasn't picked up a new one all season. He continues to somehow fly under the radar even though his weekly stat line should be putting the world on notice.

Some might think that maybe he's doing this because of bad competition, and thus that's keeping him from some of the aggressive recruiting. That's not true either, as Notre Dame Academy jumped up to Division II in Wisconsin high school this season. They went undefeated last year as a DIII school and now are in DII, and Allen still puts up incredible numbers.

This season is only five games in, and Allen has already passed 1,400 rushing yards and is sitting at 26 touchdowns. It's truly incredible.

Should Luke Fickell begin to worry? Not yet, but this doesn't mean that Fickell shouldn't make sure Allen knows he's a big priority in the class. They want to make sure he becomes a Badger. He has a chance to be the next great running back for Wisconsin, and as a local player, he can truly be the hometown hero.

Another impressive night of Allen stats; you may just need to check back next week and see what Allen is up to again. The lights are flashy; this is truly crazy.
