The Wisconsin Badgers have secured a commitment from 2026 three-star defensive back Zachary Taylor, he announced on Friday.
Taylor, a native of Katy, Texas, had an official visit to Wisconsin last weekend and decided to shut down his recruitment ahead of official visits to Pittsburgh and Houston.
In-state schools were always considered to be the biggest threat after Taylor took official visits to Texas Tech and TCU, but Taylor is now a Badger, kicking off the team’s safety room in the 2026 class.
A prized athlete, Taylor had run a 4.39 40-yard dash and saw his recruitment take off this spring, with the Badgers taking notice.
