FOOTBALL RECRUITING Badgers BBQ (June 15) thread

Jon McNamara
I don't have the full list yet, but Wisconsin is expecting 8 to 12 kids from the 2026 class on campus this Saturday.

Will get the full list later this week, but I know Victor Singleton will be there. Guessing the two in-state with offers are heading to Madison as well.

Basketball NIL

B
I heard from a former UW player that one of the NIL guys spoke at the basketball alumni banquet and said UW's basketball NIL budget is about $750,000. Schools that do not have football, like Creighton and Villanova, are spending around $3MM. Football takes up a lot of the NIL money and there are not that many basketball only NIL donors.

I thought this was pretty interesting. I've always thought that NIL dollars were better spent in basketball to get bang for your buck. I wish UW would do more to leverage small donations from regular fans.

I think it is going to take a lot of NIL money to keep Blackwell, and that would be money very well spent. He seems like a perfect 4 year college basketball player and leader for this program. Seems like it will be expensive to keep Storr too, if he wants to stay. Chucky and Crowl need to get paid their market rate too. I'm not sure how much that leaves for the portal.
