Wisconsin basketball lost the crown jewel of its 2018 recruiting class mere weeks before the signing period officially opens. Worse yet, it’s an in-state talent.
Tyler Herro from Greenfield, Wisconsin announced he is reopening his commitment. Herro had previously verbally committed to the Badgers.
The 6-foot-4-inch shooting guard is the top prospect in Wisconsin. He is currently 27th on the ESPN top 100 list.
He is a consensus 4-star prospects based on ratings from Scout, 247 Sports, ESPN, and Rivals. As Brian Snow from Scout.com notes, Herro is a unique talent at the offensive end specifically.
