There is potential for big news in the coming days for Luke Fickell and his 2024 recruiting class. 247Sports’ Steve Wiltfong and Brian Dohn recently logged a crystal ball prediction for Wisconsin to land defensive lineman Ernest Willor Jr.
Willor Jr. is the No. 114 player in the class of 2024, No. 17 defensive lineman and No. 2 recruit from his home state of Maryland.
Wisconsin is listed as a favorite, narrowly edging out top programs including in-state Maryland, Penn State and Ohio State.
Fickell’s class of 2024 currently ranks No. 25 in the nation and has two defensive linemen committed: three-star Hank Weber and four-star Dillan Johnson.
The potential addition of Willor Jr. would be a massive boost for Fickell’s first full class as head coach in Madison.
