When the lights turned off at Camp Randall Stadium following Kimberly's 34-30 win over Mukwonago on Friday evening, the 2022 high school football season officially came to an end.

Wisconsin is expected to sign a handful of in-state seniors in December, a list that includes scholarship tailback Nate White, as well as preferred walk-ons Will McDonald, Zach Mlsna and Evan Van Dyn Hoven.

While the current scholarship seniors are well established, what does the future talent look like from inside the state in the 2024 and 2025 recruiting classes? Following is a look at not only who could receive an offer from Wisconsin down the road, but what players may eventually play at the FBS or FCS level.

Note: This is not an exclusive list and more prospects will emerge as Division 1 prospects this winter and spring.

DEFENSIVE LINEMEN

Arrowhead's Jace Gilbert is the top collegiate prospect on the defensive line from inside the state. Central Michigan and Iowa State have already offered the 6-foot-5, 270-pound junior, who is also fielding interest from Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska and Syracuse, among others.

Outside of Miller, Dominic Frost (Middleton), Hudson Fore (Cedarburg), Carl Pevey Jr. (Catholic Memorial), Jace Miller (Franklin), Asher Kolodziej (Middleton), Shane Willenbring (Aquinas) and Wesley Coates (Madison Edgewood) project as potential Division 1 prospects.

Looking a long way down the road, Mason Black was the first prospect in the 2026 class to receive a Rivals.com profile. The 6-foot-6, 185-pound freshman from Waukesha West could be someone who is in the scholarship conversation in a year or two.
