New Wisconsin WR coach Alvis Whitted is staying busy on the recruiting trail despite this current dead period. The Badgers extended yet another 2021 offer to a WR/TE yesterday. Wisconsin offered Leo Blackburn Jr. out of Atlanta, Ga. (Westlake) per his Twitter account.

The physical, 6-foot-5 receiver has an offer list that includes the likes of TCU, Colorado, Minnesota, Duke, and in-state Georgia Tech. Illinois also recently jumped in with an offer on March 3. With his size, Blackburn Jr. is a hybrid TE/WR prospect that the Badgers are likely recruiting to play the WR position.
