Wisconsin is closing in on 30 transfer portal additions in this cycle. 24/7 Sports currently lists them at 27 commits, and most have already signed. Luke Fickell isn't messing around, but he's also not done yet, with a few more players coming to town to see if Wisconsin is where they want to transfer. There are at least three more visitors coming.

Wisconsin is hosting EDGE Liam Danitz from Hope College

Allen Trieu of 24/7 Sports is reporting that Liam Danitz is an edge rusher from Hope College (D3). He was recently featured in a Barstool Sports article about being the "freak athlete" in the transfer portal. According to the article, he runs a 10.55 100-meter dash at 6'5 and 230 pounds. He also had 21 tackles and 15 tackles for loss.

By his metrics alone, he is getting tons of college opportunities from James Madison to Michigan. The big catch, he's already played four years of D3 football, and he's working to get a waiver for one more.

The Parker twins, Jayvon and Armon, are set to visit Wisconsin

Wisconsin may be participating in a two-for-one special with the Parker brothers. They have always played together and have been part of the Washington Huskies for the last four seasons. It also appears they both plan to go to the same new destination in the portal, as once again, Allien Trieu is reporting they plan to visit Wisconsin, Illinois, Auburn, and Arkansas as a pair.

They both play on the defensive line. Jayvon is listed at 6'3 and 320 pounds, while Armon is listed at 6'3 and 315 pounds. They both fit the ideal defensive lineman for Luke Fickell. He's found a ton of success with this exact body type.

Jayvon has played more than his brother; he's been a part of the rotational defensive line for the Huskies for three of his four seasons (sitting out in 2025). Armon has only played in one season, 2025. Neither has flashy numbers, but both could be solid additions to round out the depth on Wisconsin's defensive line.
