Wisconsin Badgers head football coach Luke Fickell and his staff have positioned themselves as the frontrunners for 2025 linebacker Elliott Schaper following his unofficial visit to Madison.

Nick Osen of 247Sports has placed a crystal ball prediction with a confidence level of “5” for the Badgers to land the Texas native.

During his visit, the 6-foot-2, 210-pound linebacker received an offer from the Badgers. Schaper now holds a total of 12 scholarship offers, including notable ones from Duke, Cal, Arizona State, and several others.

During his junior season at Westlake High School, Schaper racked up 108 tackles, 13.
