The Wisconsin Badgers made a flurry of scholarship offers over the weekend after coaches went on recruiting trips in Chicago and Wisconsin, which included 2025 four-star defensive lineman Christopher Burgess.
Burgess, a native of Chicago, Illinois, currently has 20 offers, including ones from Alabama, Georgia, and Tennessee, as well as six Big Ten schools.
Already standing at 6’4, 230 pounds, Burgess is a top-ten player in the state of Illinois, and figures to be a significant target for the Badgers in the 2025 class.
While Burgess only was offered by the Badgers on May 5th, the edge rusher revealed to Bucky’s 5th Quarter that Wisconsin’s previous staff was looking to award him a scholarship prior to their departure.
