Wisconsin top class of 2026 target Storm Miller included the Badgers in his list of final schools on Saturday.
The Badgers’ recruiting staff has experienced several minor victories over the past month.
Miller now joins a lengthy list of coveted 2026 targets to include the Badgers in their list of finalists dating back to Oct. 29, a list that also includes four-star interior offensive lineman Leo Delaney, four-star running back Shahn Alston, four-star linebacker Tristan Phillips, four-star and iOL Ben Nichols and three-star interior lineman Bear McWhorter.
Miller, who received his offer from the Badgers back in November 2023, included Wisconsin as a finalist, along with Clemson, Michigan, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Michigan State, and Stanford. As of Dec. 1, Miller has received 24 offers in total, including from Indiana, Louisville, Kentucky, Notre Dame, Florida State, Texas A&M and Penn State.
The 6-foot-3, 220-pound linebacker is 247Sports’ No. 271 player in the class of 2026, No. 23 LB and No. 13 player from his home state of Ohio. On3, 247Sports and Rivals all consider Miller a four-star recruit.

Like many of his contemporaries, Miller’s commitment is nowhere near final. 247Sports has yet to release a crystal ball prediction, and On3’s recruiting prediction machine does not indicate a clear favorite.
Hometown destination Ohio State holds the highest likelihood to land the junior linebacker. UW’s current class of 2026 still features two commitments — three-star iOL Benjamin Novak and three-star quarterback Jarin Mock.
