The Wisconsin football program has made numerous cut-down lists of late, signaling what could be the start of its class of 2022 coming together.
Yesterday the Badgers made the top seven for 2022 four-star defensive tackle K.J. Miles, New Jersey’s No. 3 overall recruit and one of Wisconsin’s top targets in the class.

Miles is 247Sports‘ No. 232 player in the class of 2022, No. 18 defensive tackle and No. 3 player from his home state of New Jersey.
Wisconsin and Penn State are the only Big Ten teams on the defensive tackle’s list, though the SEC’s Georgia and the Big 12’s Texas are big-name schools that are tough to contend with.

247Sports has a crystal ball prediction for Miles to choose Texas A&M. With the Aggies not included in his final schools, the race seems to be wide open to land the talented defensive tackle.
