According to Evan Flood of 247 Sports, the Badgers have added a familiar name to their 2022 recruiting class.
3-star offensive lineman Barrett Nelson of Stoughton committed to the Badgers on Saturday during his official visit to Madison. Nelson followed his brother offensive lineman Jack Nelson — who is in his second-year with the program — and his father who also played for UW.
Barrett was offered on April 17 and immediately was seen as a Badger lean because of that family tradition. After a visit the weekend of July 17th, the 6-foot-6 and 255-pound lineman committed while he was still in town.
