Wisconsin football offers No. 2 cornerback in class of 2026

Wisconsin football offers No. 2 cornerback in class of 2026

The Wisconsin Badgers extended an offer to top class of 2026 cornerback prospect Khary Adams on Wednesday.

As the 2024 season winds down, UW’s recruiting staff continues to push the pedal in the class of 2026. Over the past few weeks, Wisconsin has offered four-star running back Jonathan Hatton Jr., four-star running back Amari Clemons and four-star quarterback Peyton Falzone.

Adams may be the most prestigious of all of Wisconsin’s offered prospects. At 6-foot-2, 175 pounds, Adams is considered the No. 37 player in the nation, No. 2 cornerback and No. 4 recruit for the class of 2026, per 247Sports.

The Towson, Maryland native has also filed offers from West Virginia, Virginia Tech, South Carolina, Pittsburgh, Penn State, Notre Dame, North Carolina Kentucky and Indiana.

Outside of defensive back, Adams also suits up at wide receiver for Loyola Blakefield High School. In 10 games this season, he has reeled in 28 catches for 497 receiving yards and six touchdowns. On the other side of the ball, he’s registered 39 total tackles, three interceptions and two tackles for loss.

The coveted recruit immediately becomes the highest-rated cornerback prospect on UW’s 2026 offer list, surpassing fellow four-star defender Victor Singleton.

As of Nov. 20, UW’s class of 2026 features two commitments — three-star iOL Benjamin Novak and three-star quarterback Jarin Mock.
