Wisconsin football recruiting: pipeline states under Paul Chryst

Within the world of college football recruiting, there is often this notion of recruiting pipelines, or locations where a team has traditionally had success in recruiting.

For Wisconsin Badgers football, recruiting is a 365 day job that spans the entire country. The coaching staff has had wide ranging success across myriad 7different states under the leadership of Paul Chryst since 2015, and the fruits of their tireless recruiting has yielded a 52-16 overall record, good for the ninth highest winning percentage in college football over that time frame.

While Wisconsin, in recent years, has recruited coast to coast, the Badgers have obtained commitments from 27 different states during the Chryst regime, and have had varying levels of success in each state.
