Wisconsin receives a crystal ball prediction to land a top in-state offensive lineman

Wisconsin’s class of 2022 recruiting output will most likely come down, as it usually does, to landing the remaining top players from the Badger state.

They’ve already landed the state’s No. 1 player—four-star OT Joe Brunner—and No. 6—four-star OT Barrett Nelson. With the Jerry Cross, the state’s No. 5-ranked player, already committed to Penn State, all eyes are on four-star IOL Carson Hinzman (No. 2), four-star IOL Billy Schrauth (No. 3) and four-star DL Isaac Hamm (No. 4).

Wisconsin’s class of 2022 can be considered a sizable success if the program is able to land those three remaining uncommitted players.

Well, some good news on that front came out on Wednesday as the Badgers received a 247Sports crystal ball prediction to land IOL Billy Schrauth.

The prediction comes from Notre Dame insider Kevin Sinclair, a good sign given the Fighting Irish are the other team with a great chance to land the highly-touted offensive lineman.

Schrauth is 247Sports’ No. 161 player in the class of 2022, No. 8 interior offensive lineman and, again, No. 3 player in the state of Wicsonsin.

Wisconsin’s class of 2022 currently sits ranked No. 45 in the country and No. 11 in the Big Ten, though those rankings will change drastically with commitments from Schrauth, Hamm and Hinzman.
