Quarterback recruit decommits from Wisconsin’s class of 2026

Three-star quarterback recruit Jarin Mock decommitted from Wisconsin’s class of 2026 on Tuesday.

“After a brief conversation with Wisconsin they are no longer honoring my commitment,” Mock wrote on X. “With that being said, my recruitment is 100% open.”

Mock pledged to the Badgers back in July, choosing the program over listed offers from Central Michigan, Marshall, UMass and Miami (OH). He committed back when Phil Longo still ran the offense — before a top-down overhaul of both the quarterback room and the overall unit.

Wisconsin fired Longo on Nov. 17 after a narrow 16-13 loss to No. 1 Oregon dropped the team to 5-5 on the season. His offense ranked just 91st in the nation in total offense (363.1 yards per game) and 98th in scoring (23.9 points per game) at the time.

The moves that followed after the season’s conclusion: Wisconsin quarterbacks Tyler Van Dyke, Braedyn Locke and Mabrey Mettauer all transferred out — Mettauer to play for Longo at Sam Houston State. The program then hired new offensive coordinator Jeff Grimes, which was followed by transfer commitments from quarterbacks Danny O’Neil and Billy Edwards Jr.

Wisconsin’s class of 2025 also added top-ranked QB Carter Smith and lost three-star Landyn Locke, who has since also signed on to play for Longo at Sam Houston. All of those moves inform Mock’s departure from the Badgers’ class of 2026 — every player that Longo brought to the quarterback room now plays elsewhere.

After a brief conversation with Wisconsin they are no longer honoring my commitment. With that being said, my recruitment is 100% open.
