The Wisconsin Badgers’ 2019 recruiting class sits at 19 verbal commitments heading into the start of the early signing period on Wednesday.
The key words here are verbal commitments. These prep standouts are not officially Badgers until they sign their national letters of intent and send them to UW via fax, email, or even just a texted picture.
Before they signed their NLIs to play in Madison, some prominent Badgers on this year’s team, initially pledged to other universities. In UW’s 2019 class alone, four commits—tight end Clay Cundiff (Kansas), wide receiver Stephan Bracey (Western Michigan), fullback Quan Easterling (Akron), and safety Titus Toler (Colorado)—all previously committed to play for other programs.
