TJ Bollers – Defensive End
Bollers is a Tiffin, Iowa native and an Iowa legacy, but while the Hawkeyes remain a strong contender for the 4-star prospect, the word is the Badgers could be out in front of their Big Ten West rivals at the moment.
My family and I had an awesome time this weekend at Wisconsin! Thank you @CoachAprilUW and Coach Leonhard for spending time with me and the fam before the game and to the UW staff for showing lots of love!! 🦡 @BadgerFootball @CoachGebhardt @CoachAprilUW @bzdebski @CoachKhalif pic.twitter.com/24uTF8mCao

California, Iowa State and Nebraska join Wisconsin and Iowa as the top contenders for Bollers right now, but there’s a long way to go in this recruitment. The nation’s No. 130 player has other offers from Army, Florida, Kansas State, Michigan, Michigan State, Minnesota, Vanderbilt, Virginia Tech and Washington, and schools like Oklahoma and Stanford are lurking as well.
That being said, I would expect the Badgers to remain near the top of Bollers’ list of suitors moving forward. Wisconsin is recruiting him as a stand-up outside linebacker in its 3-4 defense, a sales pitch that has proved effective so far in his recruitment.
