Former Badgers Four-Star Forward Commit Jack Thelen Pledges to Blue-Blood Program
Wisconsin basketball's 2027 recruiting class suffered a significant blow back in October when 7-foot-1 center Jack Thelen from Maple Grove High School in Minnesota de-committed from the Badgers' stacked class.
That still left Wisconsin with two elite guards in the 2027 class in Jalen Brown and Baboucarr Ann, both of whom are four-star, top-100 players in the nation. Still, Wisconsin at one point had three nationally ranked, four-star prospects pledged at one time and was realistically in the midst of constructing its best class of all time.
