Wisconsin landed a commitment from class of 2025 defensive tackle Drayden Pavey on Tuesday.
Pavey commits to the Badgers after recently walking back his pledge to Big Ten rival Purdue. He originally chose Purdue over finalists Wisconsin and Indiana back in early July.

Now, the Badgers have landed an important late commitment after Pavey became the fourth member of Purdue’s class of 2025 to decommit since the start of the 2024 season.
247Sports currently ranks the three-star defensive tackle as the No. 724 overall player in the class of 2024, the No. 80 player at his position and the No. 28 recruit from his home state of Ohio. He is the fourth defensive lineman to join Wisconsin’s class of 2025, joining three-stars Torin Pettaway, Wilnerson Telemaque and Xavier Ukponu
Pavey is Wisconsin’s 24th commitment in the class of 2025. Luke Fickell’s group is pushing the nation’s top-25 — that after finishing the 2024 cycle with the No. 24-ranked class in the country.
Wisconsin’s work in the class of 2025 is mostly finished with signing day fast approaching. The addition of Pavey is big news as the Badgers built recruiting momentum from their current three-game win streak.
