Wisconsin football added top-ranked class of 2025 offensive lineman Hardy Watts to its class of 2025 on Monday.
The four-star recruit committed to the Badgers over other finalists Michigan and Clemson. His commitment is a gigantic recruiting win for Wisconsin head coach Luke Fickell after the Badgers appeared to be out of the running. Everything seemed to change as recently as Saturday, when every 247Sports crystal ball prediction for Watts switched to Wisconsin.

Watts is commitment No. 22 for the Badgers in the class of 2025. The group now ranks No. 15 in the nation and No. 5 in the new Big Ten, leapfrogging Michigan.
The top lineman is currently ranked by 247Sports as the No. 218 player in the class of 2025, No. 12 interior offensive lineman and No. 1 recruit from the state of Massachusetts. He is instantly Wisconsin’s highest-rated commit in the class.
Watts was one of several of Wisconsin’s top remaining targets in the class. His commitment reignites the program’s momentum in the class of 2025, just as some of the top programs in the Big Ten begin to make their moves.
