Breaking down Wisconsin’s class of 2024 by position
Wisconsin’s class of 2024 has rounded into form, the group now up to 19 total commitments after yesterday’s addition of Dillan Johnson.
247Sports currently ranks the class at No. 17 in the nation and No. 5 in the Big Ten. The group’s blue-chip ratio has also risen to 33% with the recent slew of four-star commitments in the last few weeks.

There are still months remaining in the cycle and several of Wisconsin’s top targets remain on the board. But if the cycle ended today, I think Badger fans would be quite pleased about Luke Fickell’s output in his first full class.
Here is a breakdown of the current group based on position, along with 247Sports’ ranking for each commit:
