Deacon Hill was told at the time of his commitment he would be the lone scholarship quarterback Wisconsin will take in the 2021 recruiting class. The three-star prospect visited this fall and is expected to be back on campus this summer. The Badgers have not extended any new offers at the position since his pledge.

Who do they already have? The Badgers have commitments from three-star tailbacks Loyal Crawford and Jackson Acker.
Top target(s): Antwan Roberts
Scholarship seniors: Garrett Groshek, Mason Stokke

Loyal Crawford is already committed, and there's a good chance fellow in-state standout Jackson Acker winds up at tailback as well.

The three-star prospect has talked about visiting officially this summer.
