The Bismarck, North Dakota, native is 247Sports’ No. 64 offensive tackle in the class of 2025 and No. 2 overall recruit from North Dakota. The 6-foot-6, 315-pound tackle was an all-state selection following his junior campaign at Bismarck High School.
The Badgers offered Shaffer after his unofficial visit on April 12, though they apparently had an uphill battle to fight for his commitment.
He commits to an Iowa State program that went 7-6 in 2023.

Wisconsin’s class of 2025 ranks 21st in the nation with eight commitments. Michael Roeske is the only offensive lineman in the group.
Time remains in the cycle for Luke Fickell to replicate an impressive class of 2024 output.
