Badger fans will have to wait a bit longer for the next addition to Wisconsin’s promising 2019 recruiting class.
On Wednesday, 3-star defensive tackle Isaiah Gibson (Dayton, OH) announced his commitment to Kentucky over fellow finalists Purdue and Wisconsin.
Obviously, Gibson’s decision is a disappointing outcome for the Badgers. Following his official visit to Madison back in June, Wisconsin had a good amount of confidence that he would end up in the Cardinal and White.
That confidence waned a bit once Gibson picked up two huge offers from Georgia and Florida in July, but was restored when he ultimately released a Top 3 list at the beginning of this month that excluded those two SEC powers, leaving Kentucky, Purdue, and Wisconsin as the finalists.
