Wisconsin football recruiting: 4-star safety Braelon Allen opts to reclassify to the 2021 class

While most high school juniors are currently attempting to just start up their recruitments, four-star safety Braelon Allen has known for some time now that he wanted to be a Badger.

The in-state safety was the first commit in the 2022 class for the Wisconsin Badgers, but today he made the decision to expedite the process and reclassify. The shift allows Allen to join the Badgers this upcoming summer as a 2021 recruit, and will allow him to skip his senior season at Fond Du Lac High School, and instead suit up for Wisconsin early. An excellent student, Allen will be a Badger a year sooner.
