2021 WR Jaylin Noel Earns Offer from Wisconsin

Wisconsin extends a scholarship in the 2021 class in wide receiver Jaylin Noel.

Wisconsin’s 2020 recruiting class won’t be able to officially sign their letter of intent until the early signing period starting December 18. Wisconsin’s coaching staff still has to fill out the remainder of the 2020 class but that hasn’t prevented them from evaluating and offering prospects from the 2021 class.

On Sunday Wisconsin extended another scholarship offer in the 2021 class to wide receiver Jaylin Noel as Noel was on an unofficial visit to Wisconsin this past weekend to see Wisconsin beat Iowa.

It was Noel’s sixth scholarship offer and third from the Big Ten. Noel from Park High School in Kansas City, Mo. also holds scholarships from Iowa, Minnesota, Iowa State, Kansas State, and South Dakota State.

The wide receiver position could be one of the more heavily populated positions in the 2021 class considering Wisconsin over the next two years is set to lose four scholarship players at the position. Wisconsin currently has two wide receivers committed in the 2020 class as the Badgers in the 2021 class will likely exceed that number to replenish the talent at the position.

Noel is currently unranked by Rivals but he is rated as a three star prospect by 247 Sports. Wisconsin currently has five commitments in the 2021 recruiting class.

 

Bryson Williams Ruled Out for game Against Nebraska

Wisconsin (7-2, 4-2 Big Ten) will be without starting nose tackle Bryson Williams when they play Nebraska (4-5, 2-4) on Saturday. Williams, a native of Lincoln, Nebraska, had to leave the game against Iowa early because of a left leg injury.

This will mark the fourth game Williams will miss as he missed the other three games because of a leg injury. With Williams out for the game, true freshman Keeanu Benton will fill in for Williams.

Benton has done well for Wisconsin along the defensive line as he has appeared in eight games with five starts as the only game he hasn’t played in was against Illinois. On the year Benton has registered nine tackles (seven solo tackles), three tackles for loss, and one sack.

Williams was the only player to be listed as out for Wisconsin, but freshman cornerback Semar Melvin is listed as questionable after missing the Hawkeyes game.
