The Wisconsin Badgers' 2024 college football season is in disarray after losing starting quarterback Tyler Van Dyke to a torn ACL in last week's loss to No. 4 Alabama, but the future looks bright with a strong 2025 recruiting class and hopes of landing more star recruits in the years to follow.

One of the newest high school football stars to receive an offer from Wisconsin is a five-star wide receiver from Michigan, Dakota Guerrant.
