3 reasons why four-star recruits matter for the Badgers

Unless you’re trapped under a rock or follow Gophers recruiting, you’ve had to notice (and likely rejoice in) the fact that the Wisconsin Badgers landed not one, but two composite four-star 2025 football recruits on back-to-back days.

Suddenly, they find themselves ranked No. 6 in the Rivals 2025 team recruiting rankings. I can’t recall as lofty a ranking for the Badgers this late in a cycle, so it’s noteworthy even if we all know the final ranking will probably be 10-15 spots lower.

It’s always a fun thing on the socials to rejoice in recruiting wins like securing both Mason Posa and Eugene Hilton, especially if such wins come over NIL juggernauts like Oregon and Georgia.
