Wisconsin Football: Badgers swing and miss on Ford

It was worth a shot, right?

Orange Lutheran (Orange, CA) wide receiver Kyle Ford, one of Wisconsin’s few remaining targets in the 2019 class, announced his Top 5 schools on Sunday. Unfortunately, the Badgers failed to make the cut.

The programs left in contention for the 5-star’s services are Colorado, Oregon, Washington, Michigan, and USC. He will announce his final decision at the U.S. Army All-American Bowl on January 5.

While disappointing, Ford’s decision to spurn Wisconsin is not at all surprising.

When Wisconsin extended an offer to Ford back in September, we were a bit perplexed by the move.
