Early Signing Day: in-state QB Myles Burkett signs with the Badgers

Although he might not have been Wisconsin’s first choice, the Badgers will get a quarterback this class that can add something different to their room and who might have a big motivation for his home state team.

Three-star quarterback Myles Burkett was Wisconsin’s first commit for the 2022 class. The star Franklin High School quarterback made his pledge to the Badgers the day he was offered, committing to UW on January 31, 2021. As a senior, he was named the Gatorade Player of the Year in Wisconsin after helping lead Franklin to a state championship.
