The Wisconsin Badgers struck gold with the defensive backs in the 2024 class, as they landed commitments from four-stars Xavier Lucas and Omillio Agard, as well as three-star Jay Harper for one of their better recruiting classes at the position in recent history.
Lucas, a native of Florida, was especially memorable, as the Badgers found a way to pry the talented defensive back away from his home state, where he received considerable interest from Miami and Florida State.
Standing 6’2, 190 pounds, Lucas was a track athlete as well in college, and one of the bigger recruitments of the Luke Fickell era that turned successful for the Badgers.
