Just 24 hours after Badger State native Zander Rockow committed to Minnesota as a preferred walk-on, Wisconsin came calling.
On Monday, the Badgers offered the 2023 athlete after Rockow spoke with Wisconsin special teams coordinator Chris Haering. The Regis High School star is an Eau Claire, Wis. native with an offer list including Illinois State, Northern Illinois, and Valparaiso.
On Sunday, Rockow announced his commitment to Minnesota as a preferred walk-on but the Badgers will still have a chance to flip the Wisconsin native. He has played on both sides of the ball in high school, primarily at running back and middle linebacker.

After a great phone call with Coach Haering I’m proud to announce I have received a PWO Offer at the University of Wisconsin! 🔴⚪️ @McNamaraRivals pic.twitter.com/g2lO0Zt3dy
