Recruiting: A bunch of MAC schools had offered Fumagalli early on, but he waited for a Big Ten offer that never came. NC State was also a player in his recruitment but Fumagalli stuck with the Badgers despite not being guaranteed a scholarship until his third season.
Stats: Fumagalli leads the Badgers with 15 catches for 236 yards, averaging 15.7 yards per reception. He is also tied for the team lead with three touchdown catches.
Farrell’s take: Fumagalli was a three-star walk-on at Wisconsin, a program that is becoming known for churning out amazing non-scholarship prospects. Turning down a full-ride from NC State for a partial scholarship from Wisconsin is a big deal and it has clearly worked out well for him. He was a talented kid out of high school, a three-star who should have had more offers and now his size, blocking ability and red zone touch have NFL scouts watching.
