Wisconsin football lands four-star in-state running back
The Wisconsin Badgers have gone eight for eight in securing the best in-state recruits.
The Wisconsin Badgers are officially eight for eight when it comes to recruiting the top in-state talent. After years of limited in-state commits, head coach Luke Fickell has put together one of Wisconsin's best in-state recruiting classes in recent memory. That continued on Friday, as four-star running back Kingston Allen took to social media to announce his commitment to the Badgers .
Allen, 247Sports No. 2 player in Wisconsin, currently plays for Notre Dame Academy. Blessed to make the commitment to the University of Wisconsin Madison!!!

Now, the offensive linemen know exactly who they'll be blocking for. Wisconsin's class of 2027 jumped to No. 14 in the nation when the Badgers added the Mallinger twins.
